Noble wishing he could call some sort of timeout & settle the Roo boys.

Gee Collingwood are annoying

Just annoying?


****ful result!

Only made worse by the fact that a decent bar in Thailand is rendered positively toxic by a group of loud mouthed filth supporters 

FMD ! 

If that Ginnivan want to duck his head in every play someone should just remove it from his shoulders.

High free drawing cheats, even pendlebury has started doing it

Pies won 11-5, but percentage only 107%, shows they’ve had a lot of close wins, but aren’t anything flash!


Their luck will run out. What a bunch of cheats, ducking for frees all day. Sadly they are being umpired to the top 4.

Pies won't beat Adelaide over there. They've ridden their luck 

If you take your arm off the ball to draw the tacklers arm high it should be considered prior and holding the ball. It’s ruining the game. Supporters absolutely loathe it.

Trying to find positives, best one I can think of is it moves carlton down another rung and they can still miss the 8 :)

2 behinds won't help or maybe the nth players want noble gone.

Anyway it will be an interesting night at the noble house between Joh and his dad. 

People going on about Ginnivan, players will just have to learn to tackle lower and then he will get pinned and look like a goose.

Look at it this way.  All the Pies supporters will now have their hopes up and be dreaming of a Premiership, which will make them being bundled out of the finals all the more sweet for the rest of us.

Yuck they have now jumped to 5th and only 1 game behind us. 

Just one year it would nice to not have either essendon or the pies in the finals.

They've had a very fortuitous season IMO.

Beat Essendon by 11, Carlton by 4, Hawthorn by 4, GWS by 11, GC by 5 and now North by 7.

5-0 in that run could so easily have been 3-2 or worse, which would have them back in the pack and/or out of the 8.

To their credit they held on in all of those games, but generally speaking when a side does this well in close games they eventually regress back to the "norm", which is to not win 100% of them. Could happen this year with their moderately difficult run home, or otherwise we might find that next year they drop off in ladder position as you can't expect to continually win these close games.

The bar has just been invaded by about a dozen paddies ! They are [censored] already! 
Ireland v NZ rugby is on!

Geez they’re fired up! The Guinness tap is taking some hammer!

Have a mate who’s a North supporter - he was shattered. His text below after the game is eerily similar to what I’d have been sending out 10 years ago. We know what they’re going through.  

“Could see it coming a mile a way. First 30 seconds of the last and I knew we’d stopped believing. Absolutely devastated.”

All being well the Pies will crash and burn in the finals.

I suggest you start sinking some pints of the black stuff and join in the merriment

If only nth could have kicked the 1st goal of the final term things could have been different. That's the lesson unfortunately.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
