Have you thought about it?

[The Filth Wizard]

Only in February the all-conquerring almost perfect season by the New England Patriots hit a brickwall called the NY Giants. I've already made the prediction a month ago North are the NY Giants and the Cats are the Patsies. Hawthorn are the Cowboys and the Doggies are the Chargers..

Sweet analogy

Who are the Eagles though?

 

[Chadwiko]

I'm pretty sure we are looking at a GF.

I'm not afraid to lift the lid a little.

Anybody that thinks it should be forbidden to start talking this positively, F off and look at the Geelong board.

Ego is acceptable when succeeding, and like that toothless budgie, we are succeeding more that 14 other clubs.

Confidence is not a killer. Complacency is.

Filth is spot on. We need a bit more confidence and swagger about us.

I'm finding the lack of faith quite disturbing...

 

[Chadwiko]

Who are the Eagles though?

Failmantle?

Or perhaps Ninthmond?

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Failmantle?

Apologies... that may have been a little less clever than I thought it was.

I read it as if you were asking who the Sea Eagles were (Sav's team).

 

[miss_kate18]

Tas, you're a party animal aren't you? Not the thread for this stuff.

Simmo, holding the cup. Spud collecting a Norm Smith. Arch playing his last game, running backwards into a pack in the final minute of his career and saving the game. The parade. The booze. The most un-expected flag in the history of the sport.

You know, that type of stuff.

*takes deep breaths*

 

[B-Rock]

My friends literally fear North Melbourne winning the flag.

We have a party every year at one of my mates house and we have already discussed how frightening it would be for all at the party waiting for me to make my way from the G to my mates house after a North win.

You would hear me coming straight after the siren and I would bring an army with me to probably tear the walls down.

Exciting stuff.

 

[miss_kate18]

If we made the GF I would have to sell most of my furniture and perhaps sexual services to afford a ticket. I hate being a poor uni student...


....You know I'd do it though.

It's even worse being a poor Uni student who lives interstate. It's not just the cost of the match tickets, it the flights, accomodation, etc etc.

Still, you win on account of boobs.

 

[RoyalBlue]

I can't help but think if we made the final I'd spend the entire match with my head between my knees worrying what the **** was happening.

 

[TheOneAndOnlyKJ]

I've thought about. Us vs Geelong. They are 10 goals up at half time. The revival then begins. Urquhart gets 25 disposals in the last half, all effective. With a minutes and a half remaining we hit the front by 2 points thanks to goal of the year from Matty Campbell. However, Geelong respond quickly thanks to some Ablett magic. With only 25 seconds to go Laidley has to try something drastic to win the flag. Centre bounce, McIntosh wins the tap, Harris gets the clearance, handballs it out to Sam Power who kick a long ball to the top of the square. WATT!!!! Takes the mark one out with Scarlett. Siren goes...

Watt, 20 out directly in front kick the goal.

Oh the irony...

Oh, poor you! Still, when you're finished uni, you can move here and enjoy North's future premierships. Yep, I'm being optimistic.

 

[Ashley B]

Stop this silliness and nonsense the players and coach sometimes read this board

PS Yes i do think about it, had a dream which i posted on the board 2 or 3 yrs back with Big Drew slotting one through after the siren from 40 to win the Big one.
As they say sometimes fairytales do come true

LONG LIVE NORTH MELBOURNE

Sell most of your furniture AND sexual services...

Either the tickets will be monstrously expensive or you shop mostly at Ikea.

Still, I like your moxie.

I'll let you know if I get a spare, though I reckon a few guys on here may just buy enough for you and your friends

 

[Christabella]

Thought about the GF. If St Kilda and Collingwood win this week, I am fairly sure we will play in the GF.

Exciting as that is, it's a bit ****ing frightening too. The whole country watching us play Geelong? Biggest day in the sporting year? Jeebus.

You think that is frightening? Try having a partner who supports the Cats, it's not him I'm worried about (he is really just a pussy) but his brother and mother are nuts! Win or lose this week I am going to cop it and it would be a whole lot worse in a grand final.

Funny thing is I've always wanted to go to the grand final and this year provided me with the perfect opportunity due to the performance of three teams, none of which was North Melbourne (we would have been 8th or 9th at the time I made the decision). It would be an absolute dream if they were to be there too.

Sweet analogy

Who are the Eagles though?

A Californian band who formed in the 70's with a quest to rid the world of insomnia.

Have I thought about it?

Yeah/nah.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

A Californian band who formed in the 70's with a quest to rid the world of insomnia.

Ah yes, by inducing a peaceful easy feeling.

This could become one of those threads.

 

[Flawed Genius]

I've thought about it.

Mates today said "It'll be Geelong & North in the Grand Final."

One of them is a Collingwood supporter, the other a Geelong supporter.

My version goes:

We get out to a 7 goal lead at quarter time, but due to Rawlings tripping over his own nose several times, Ablett kicks 6.0 and we lead by a goal at half time.
Harris snaps Ling's leg in two going for the ball & Mooney ruptures an artery during a goal celebration.

Laidley throws Gav into the middle and he dominates, picking up 15 touches in 6 minutes & kicking 4 goals - Scarlett tries a wrestling move on Thommo, who flexes his muscles Hogan-style and throws Scarlett into the turf. Scarlett goes off with a suspected fractured cheekbone & Thompson kicks 3 goals in his absence before the young Taylor can get on him.

Meanwhile, down the other end, Mathew Stokes is running riot & kicking goal after goal - Gav, doing everything, goes onto him and Stokes is so scared (& horny) that he runs off the ground.

Three quarter time sees Geelong leading by 8 points, but Boomer, who's had 34 touches to 3/4 time but due to the violent nature of the game has been spending most of the 3rd quarter playing 500 with Matty Campbell in the forward pocket, lifts and kicks goal of the year.

Down by two points, we trade goals with the Cats, Ablett kicks his 7th goal and gets his 52nd touch - to put the Cats in front by 2.

Less than a minute left, Hamish jumps into Brad Ottens' face & breaks his nose, but gets the ball to the much maligned Ben Davies, who replaced Sam Power in the midfield - Power got tired after winning his Brownlow & celebrating for 3 days straight.

Davies kicks a finger breaking mongrel punt sixteen metres long and 50 metres up - and Leigh Brown jumps all over Milburn, avenging the Silvagni bump & taking a screamer at the same time. With 20 seconds left, Brown slams the ball to the goalsquare where Eddie Sansbury takes mark of the year over Ablett, Corey, Bartel & Wojcinski.

Sansbury, the forgotten man, the Roo that nobody wanted - the man that once dominated Adam Cooney in a SANFL game - puts it right through the middle with his eyes closed after the siren, and Joffa - who in a move that turned Eddie McGuire to suicide has jumped on the Cats bandwagon, is struck between the eyes by Sansbury's goal & is pronounced dead at the scene. Nobody really cares.

The post match celebrations see Shannon Watt drink six bottles of Moet champagne in 15 minutes, Simmo in the middle of the MCG crying with joy, and Gav impregnating every woman in the stadium in 4 minutes flat.

Spud & Drew share the Norm Smith medal, presented by Glenn Archer who is the new head of the AFL - Demetriou was so cut up about losing McGuire that he washed down a full bottle of sleeping pills with a bottle of vodka - and Simmo lifts the cup high above his head with Laidley as the sun goes down behind them.

The Cinderella story is complete.

Nothing wrong with us being confident. If we win this week i reckon our confidence will be sky high.

Thats commitment. Lets hope it doesn't get to all that Kate.

I'm sure you can bribe a few hundred out of your parents.

That's obviously after Wellsy turned into a priest?

PS; Dope story, that Davies 18 metres long 50 metres high shit was funny

 

[BringBackRooRuckle]

Ah yes, by inducing a peaceful easy feeling.

This could become one of those threads.

Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be over in a New York Minute....

 

[Flawed Genius]

Wellsy was seen to be bowing & making the sign of the cross towards the shattered, ashen-faced Geelong cheersquad, who had levitated in mass adoration of Ablett, only to be brought back down to Earth by the three worst players on our list (Brown, Davies & Sansbury)
