Roooos!

That was a gutsy win and probably the upset of the year given who they were playing and what was at stake.

Although you have to wonder where that's been aside from last week against the Pies.

Many of them saying this one's for Noble so you have to take that on face value as fair dinkum.

Zurhaar ... this bloke really punches above his weight when he's on.  Goldy was also super in that last quarter or so.  That No.1 draft pick did ok as well eh!

In the end you can have all the systems and styles you like.  To win these tight games against very good teams you have to bring the most important element for most of the four quarters.... great effort.

    Someone smart explain to me who we want to win out of Carlton and Geelong?

    I was hoping for a nil all draw but Geelong already scored so that’s not an option.

    Depends on how you think the Dee's will finish the season. If your thinking we will end well the blues as we can reclaim top spot. If your thinking we will finish bad the cats as Blues will be fighting for our top four spot. I'll just sit back and watch wishing we had at least 1 of these big forwards

    Blues, Swans and us. Must avoid Freo in Perth as will be hardest to win.

    We play them there soon and it could decide our fate.

    Very happy for North. Tigers shown to be the mid table outfit they are

    Zurharr. Off the rookie list. He is a beast

    We have done very well in finals in Perth this decade.  🙄

    He's put off contract talks until the end of the year.

    Would absolutely go after him.

    Curnow has Buddy level star about him

    not saying as good but he has it

  • Quote

    Curnow is a genuine star now.

    The noise level by Carlton supporters everytime they kick a goal is next level!

    You really have a thing against umpires it would appear.

    If we’d had umpiring in Adelaide like Collingwood did today, we’d have won by 80 points.

    How many years was he injured for? He still has huge upside as well. And to think we took Weid ahead of him.

    25yo and only played 75 games. Hasn’t had a good run at it since 2018 really. 4 games over 2020-2021. Not a fan of the blues but hard not to like his resilience

    Can't teach presence and swag. Unfortunately Weid won't ever have it

    I hope there were a bunch of our players watching the Roos game for a few reasons. For one I hope it would remind a few that it wasn't that long ago that these wins were what we experienced. I would also hope it reminds players to place value on the wins and don't take them for granted. Finally I would also hope that they get reminded that bad kicking is bad footy, we've missed some very getable chances this year and it has cost us, Richmond lost that off their kicking boots.

    Great for North, hilarious to watch.

    Need a headcount on the cats tonight. Seem to have more players on the field.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
