Entry:
Significant day today, I actually found a car park on Arden Street. I thought I would have had to park near Vic Market but I thought I'd give the old one pass over and just as I pulled up, a bloke was just leaving and in a big hurry. Great start to the day.
I was really...
Most will agree that that our mid age group of players are not top 4 quality. Some of our seniors are stars like Higgins, Taz, Goldy and Cunners but following them apart from Polec, Brown and maybe LMac and possibly Dumont there is a dearth of quality players in the 24 to 28 yo age group.
Our...
1. Lachie Hunter
2. Bailey Smith
3. The Aitken Twins
4. Libba Jnr
5. Mark Hunter
6. Gambling revenue
7. Racing syndicates
8. Jake Stringer
9. Recruited a s**t human in Hall
10. Campbell Rose
11. Disrespected the RCH appeal by not caring enough to promote their only marquee game in 2017
12...
1. Playing in front of no crowds
2. Quarters reduced by 4 minutes
3. Season reduced to 17 games.
Back us for the flag, finally some rule changes that will benefit us
The top 4 of the 2017 and all haven't exactly set the world on fire. It's their 3rd year in the system and will any of them take the next step? It could be argued that Brayshaw has shown more at this stage but that whack from Gaff may have impacted on his second year so he needs to have a good...
Hi, I've been watching North since 1970 and while my memory of games prior to 1975 is sketchy, I still remember and appreciate some of our players who don't receive the accolades of their more esteemed teammates.
So I thought I would jot down players from the last 50 years who were underrated...
No he isn't, he's a knob.
Kingy nailed it on the head when he said Scott tries to be the difference in the game. An example of this is how He-Man didn't have the balls to drop Harry Taylor because he didn't have a match up so coach Genius fabricated a match up for Harold by dropping Stanley and...
I'm not sure where this was left so I better get it started and deal with Gasometer repercussions later.
Well the Cats are coming off an embarrassing loss and a smashing in the media and we've come off a great win against the Hawke who have vindicated the form tonight.
Apparently the Cats have...
I'm guessing that without Cripps that most pundits are not giving the Blues much hope against the Dockers this week?
This could and should galavanise the Blues playing group because if they have been listening to what the world is saying, Cripps has carried them which is a bit rough on...
We were all looking for a statement at the selection table after the insipid performance against the Bombres but no we will stay the course and hope our meek senior players show the way to victory.
Port players will be licking thier lips at the chance to feast on the turkey that is our game...
What a pissweak effort from our so called captain on Good Friday.
Here's his heat map from the game:
Great effort Captain you imposter.
He should be dropped for that pathetic, gutless effort. Hand in your captains armband you fraud.
Hasn't played like a $1.4M per year player since that massive contract in 2017.
Doesn't tackle, doesn't celebrate team mates goals and is obviously their for the individial glory. Is he really worth a tenth of the team's salary cap?
Not having more cash space to pick up some better standard...
What my head says:
Sicily to pick up 30 plus possessions, 14 marks of which 10 will be intercepts and for us to go down by 40 points. Breust 6, Gunston 4, Puopolo 3.
What my heart says:
We could win if Hawthorn have an off day and we improve our disposal and tighten up our defensive...
Not sure if there isn't many of us who don't add 10 minutes to the morning s**t while at work to catch up on Bigfooty. However I would like to know where else have you snuck a peek at BF In shall we say, dubious surroundings?
I snuck a peek during a board meeting. I was only a presenter and I...
The way they are talking down there, you'd be lead to believe they are finals bound. Lol
While ex Swan, Hammies, adds experience to an already um experienced midfield, he is just another slow plodder that is cut from the same cloth as the rest of their plodding midfield. Ffs Steven is their...
When you read across the Bigfooty boards, you often see a thread about who has the best young list. The arbitrary age in most cases seems to be 23 so I looked at our list and penned our best 23 and under team as at Jan 2019:
B: Turner McKay EVW
HB: Murphy Durdin LMac
C: Zuhraar LDU Dumont...
Just take a look at their draw and even Carlton would have given the top 4 a shake.
A 100 point thumping in finals coming up for these pretenders.
#LolHawf.
They are embarrassing. Dwarf throwing, grabbing each other's doodles, rapes, poor recruiting, shithouse development, highest donations from the AFL, nomads and now Simon Letleak has told the world they're after Hannerbury.
The season isn't over for most teams you flog, he's still playing...
It comes down to this. Either we are this
Or we are this
This is a huge game and if we bring last week's toughness around the ball, we will grind them down and win comfortably. I am actually bullish about this game. We win this and build momentum and further belief then finals is on the...
Hearing that the Krakouer Bros will be at the game this Sunday rekindled my love for them both and it made me think where I rate them in my favourites of all time. So I did a top 10 and thought I would share and hopefully others can share their top 10 as well.
The only proviso is that you have...
Alex Rance is the best at guarding space.
Alex Rance is the best at holding off a player while a team mate takes a mark.
Alex Rance is the best at having his mistakes glossed over by arse tonguing commentators.
Well West Coast you bunch of pretenders, your mob at home should beat the Tigers after we softened them up yesterday.
You lucky pricks get to play Richmond at a time they are jaded and hurting, even if this what at the G, you should win.
At a minimum, a win but if they're a serious threat for...
If I am going to miss the first three rounds of the season it better be a bloody good reason and as I have already stated in another thread, I'm off to Italy.
So while I'm there I thought of taking some strategic photos of moi in my North jumper and cap in front of some sights and post them on...
Not sure where Bulldogs are at but I suspect another rebuild is imminent as the youth on show today were average and their older players are showing signs of age.
I suspect they will finish bottom 6 this year and One Trick Beveridge will quit. Look a team that's been found out and good old...
Watching some highlights of last night's games I got to hear Brayshaw commentating. I've always enjoyed his commentating even when he was over the top on MMM. I actually think he and Taylor might make a great combo as I've noticed Taylor being a little more reserved so far, so I'm hoping this...
