GAMEDAY - Round 21 (GROUNDHOG DAY)

[Chook 14,616]

Hawks looking good here early against North. Let's hope they can really put them away today and even up our percentage. 

 

EDIT and now another 26-0

Norf getting a touch up. Nice. Nicer if it wasn't Hawthorn.

[DemonOX 8,551]

We do play that ground fairly well so I don't think the boys will to afraid of it so to speak. 

No excuses tonight we r playing for a potential finals spot. 

[hells bells 2,023]

North's percentage down to 108% at quarter time. Go Hawks. 

Feel sick now...

[M_9 1,793]

A goal to Norf - that's upsetting.

[M_9 1,793]

Dribble goal by Bruest - wow.

[Ethan Tremblay 28,546]

I'd be texting Norf supporters pulling the [censored] out of them but I don't know any.

There's never been a time where I didn't want North to lose, but this is beautiful and great for us. 

Not only did we beat Hawthorn, we made them angry enough to make sure they won't lose this week!

Makes the Bombers, Roos and Eagles losses pretty important. We played the Roos at full strength, at a ground we had never seen before and they got 7 goals from frees, we lost by less than a kick, similar with the Eagles and we played a shocker against the Bombers.

 We could have been in the 8, fighting to keep our place tonight.

It's a pity we cant actually put 3rd generation politicians in a pork barrel.

I think we should get it passed as law.

Beazley,Downer,and i would say Crean although I liked him learnt to ride the gravy train as a god given rite.

Already half cut in adelaide.. Better sober up before the first bounce.. Hoping we get up but not so confident

I also have to slow down, damn night games should have gone to work

[Generation dee 1,336]

For those of you who may be still worried about our prospects, fear not.

Melbourne are undefeated under lights this year (3-0)*

*disclaimer, Rd 7 win at metric on started at 4.40pm, but we won't the second half under lights by 11 goals

[hells bells 2,023]

Hawks slowing to a crawl.  Need to lift.  

[John Demonic 4,911]

QUIZ TIME: If you could choose one of two options, which would you choose:

a. Melb make finals, but Hawthorn win premiership

or

b. Melb don't make finals, Hawthorn don't win premeirship

Reason I ask: I keep finding myself barracking for the Kangas today by default, and realising what i'm doing. I think i HATE hawthorn more than i LOVE Melbourne. Oops :/ Damn 4pete.

I've kept off the booze so far but night games are a deadly trap. I've missed many a second half due to being [censored]!

I liked Crean as well but I share your sentiment Biffen.

5 seasons of wanting Hawthorn to lose every game builds up a mighty habit. Hard to just switch to Hawthorn supporting mode so easily.

 

Well it's over now, 33 points. Few more goals will be nice.

[Bravo Oliver, Bravo 182]

Nah Ya gotta love the Hawks (for 15 more minutes)

[doc roet 1,232]

Thats one hurdle out of the way,come on Swannies,

Should have taken those odds at   100-1 

[hells bells 2,023]

3% reduction on North.  Another 3% each against the Swans and GWS brings them down to 102.5%.

Our % now is 102.58.

We just have to keep winning, a good win against the Blues would be handy though.

[Tessaract 66]

MFC 68 points.
