That ground should be burnt to the ground

Norf a rabble. Game is already over.

And yet, how many hundreds of millions has been spent at that cesspool?

there's a lot of pagan at the baggers about it

WWSW, I was wanting to articulate why I thought it. Yours is a good comparison. I guess I just think that, like players, they can just lose whatever made them successful. And love or hate him, he's been a bit of a walking headline for awhile. That doesn't normally auger well.

[BDA 22,360]

North are terrible. 100 point shellacking incoming.

[Demonland 70,419]

The margin in this game is going to be ugly

Just have a gut feel that Alastair Clarkson's coaching stint at Norf won't end well. 

Just like the start and the middle.

Hah Rab, he was a winner and so were his teams.

[deejammin' 2,192]

How many years does the competition endure North like this for? They’ve got the champion experienced coach, the extra high draft picks, the father sons, and they are still a blight on the comp. 

[Demon Disciple 11,774]

I see a lot of Melbourne 2008/2009 with North, in that they think young kids will help them rise. It wasnt until Roos & Jackson came onboard that we started heading in the right direction.

Kids alone won’t do it, and with North’s poor quality leaders, who’s going to drive the standards?

Hi RtG. I meant at North. 

[Demonland 70,419]

North have handballed to Brisbane more than to their own team.

We wouldn’t need Langdon and Windsor if we played on this ground. 

I just had a quick look online and it looks like shallow or straight wings are the norm at SANFL grounds. Even the old Adelaide Oval had pretty much the same dimensions as this one tonight.

Now I agree with that Rab!! :)

To be fair, I do look at a bloke like Cameron Zurhaar, and think he will never reach the level I thought he might. Poor decision maker and maybe a product of playing in a poor team. We can relate.

Absolutely DD. And I think they've nailed the timeslot for this match. Non -event

[Diamond_Jim 12,380]

Comical dropped mark

[BDA 22,360]

This is pathetic from North. I'm turning it off.

[deejammin' 2,192]

Not sure if this hurts or helps us. 
On the one hand Brisbane are regrowing their confidence and will be able to rest some players if this continues to blow out in the second half. 
On the other hand it is difficult to change gears to a hard contest after an easy win..

26-9 inside 50’s. Ouch.

Lions on track to kick more goals than North’s total inside 50 count 🤮

Larkey should have assessed his options before re-signing with the Kangaroos.

I know. It's hard to believe we were once that bad.
