North Melbourne are on the way out, sadly they will have no voice in about 2-3 years. Brayshaw's white Knights did not come through. Tick Tick

North made a terrible mistake when it rejected the AFL's relocation offer to the Gold Coast. With such a low natural supporter base, the goodwill of many in taking out an extra membership to help out the Roos was never going to be sustainable for the many years necessary to get the club back on its feet.

Tick, tick indeed!

Yep, you got it. Could have been us in that situation near the end of Gardiners reign. We were an absolute Cot Case 12 months ago.

Fortunately the big jimma & co have turned it around, with still much work to do. I don't see the same future for north. They have managed to fly under the Radar so far this year, but i can't see that lasting too much longer.

wicked clash jumper...

why is the home team wearing a clash jumper tho?

[45HG 1,539]

I'll give you one guess DJL.

Sad to see a home team wearing white shorts...

[gOLLy 401]

What a digrace the AFL are. Well done Collingwood hope your proud.

I've just had about enough of this game from rules to politics. This game has gone to the [censored].

Anyone catch a glimpse of Nth Melbournes banner? $5000 fine maybe? I hate Collingwood.

[stevenDEMON 0]

jumper was absolute poo.

What did the banner say? Can North afford a $5000 fine?

I hate to see a club fold, but if it helps melbourne survive then cya later

[The Backyard Charizard 1,202]

Banner said something along the lines of....

"This is our night, Let's put up a fight, So in our home games, We can wear our Blue and White"

Not word for word, but that is what I remember..... Noticed it straight away on the telecast.....

Good on 'em...

[gOLLy 401]

It also said something along the lines of "It's our Right"

[Steamin Demon 392]

F*#k Collingwood. North a like a little fat kid in school yard getting pushed around, Hang your head North and the AFL !!

AFL.

So it should be. The North v Collingwood jumpers scenario is a joke. All the more resaon why Collingwood should have a clash guernsey - and they should wear it at away games. North have bent themselves over with the AFL standing over them. They should fight. The Afl should be tougher on Collingwood all the same.

Why did they wear that top then if they were "fighting to wear their home strip". I'm dead serious when i say that if teams like Collingwood aren't willing to move with the rest of the competition on this issue then they should be made to wear pink netball bibs and if they don't then they forfeit premiership points.

The home team should never have to wear an alternate strip.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Stupid Collingwood refuse to wear something other than the "Prison bars".

I think North Melbourne's home jumper would have done fine V Collingwood, especially since Collingwood have a black back and North have a white back.

It's a disgrace to have to wear a light blue alternate ship for a home game.

[CHAMP 347]

It was a problem for viewers on B/W telly when things got a bit muddy at Victoria Park or Arden St but under even artificial light on a pristine surface there is no problem.

My bet is that Collingwood are willing to pay the fine for not wearing a clash jumper, and they're calling North's blush. North can't pay it, so they wear the alternate strip. I don't think it's North giving into the Pies, but rather North being pushed into a corner with no other logical solution.
