Maybe.

But i reckon given he represents such a tricky match up up forward (they have to play a tall on him) and his leap means he can take centre bounces without getting buffeted too much that they will want to play him round one. particularly if Weed can give Maxy a chop out occasionally (and Tomlinson around the ground).

I reckon Jackson to play 3 or so games, in packets.  They will try to fast track him, but gently gently.  You could see his body isn't ready yet.

His head is more advanced than body, imo.

    Weid really enjoyed it, I asked,  19 touches and all over the ground, could be the making of him

     

    I had a few drinks (was very excited) but from what I could tell he's ruck work was sub par, in fact horrible. 

    Did I have to much to drink or is that a fair assessment? 

    To me Weird is a lead up full forward exactly like Tom Hawkins or nothing. Harsh?

    Friday afternoon off locked in. Going as much out of nostalgia as Arden St was one of my favourite away grounds back in the day.

    What are the chances of there being a sausage sizzle, canteen and/or canned drinks being sold? Can anyone remember from the Pies game last year?

    Did you manage to find out the answer?

    At the Pies game you could only get food etc inside the Holden centre and the queues were so long I gave up . Nothing available around the ground, but likely a sales strategy by Eddie. North may be more working class and actually look after the fans??

    Someone coincidentally asked the same thing on the North board over at BigFooty. Nobody knows for sure but it sounds more unlikely than likely that there'll be food and drink.

    The Kangaroos match will be live streamed. 

     

    Ecstatic that this game is filmed. I will be at work (doh) and am wondering if you happen to know if the live stream will be saved on the website, and able to accessed after the game? If not, if anyone reads this that plans to be saving the stream on their computer please let us know. Many thanks.

    If the Collingwood Scratch Match that was streamed live last year is any indication then it will be available to watch later but it hasn't been officially confirmed.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
