Gil has backed Dusty !!!

......or berri berri fever would be good !!!

Agree it will totally ruin the Brownlow night if Danger is suspended and we can't have the nominal favourite and AFL "darling " suspended for such a trifling offence. The AFL is running like well oiled machine. Leth " lean on the MRP" has left the scene but sure enough, Andrew Dillon will swoop in and have a quiet word so that there will be an appropriate decision made in this important case. Perhaps common sense will reign and the incident won't even be referred to the MRP.

Yes, first quarter when Garlett nailed someone and then kicked a goal from the free. Most of the time though they just waltzed around our players and got the ball away. It was enough to make you cry. I did.

Alright, I'm as upset as anyone here. There is not much you can say except Melbourne is playing the long game. Goodwin knows and is right to say there is a long way to go for this group. How does a North player waltz around 3 opponents and they barely get a finger tip on him. That's what I don't get. When we nailed a tackle in the first quarter, it resulted in a turnover and a Melbourne goal. I can't credit that the players didn't want this enough. That is just not possible. So many players there in body but not in spirit. Teams are not gifting you a win this season, you go out and earn the 4 points. I want to see what I witnessed at Adelaide oval vs Adelaide or against Wet Toast in Perth. Not the dross we saw yesterday. We've seen too much of that already and they're memories we'll never erase.

I went to the Hawks game last night and did the due diligence on Sicily. He made 4 changers in the first quarter and 8 overall. He can kick the ball a country mile but he's prone to the odd brain fade. Marks it pretty well.

I went to the game actively hoping for the Hawks to win and being surrounded by smug Hawks fans to boot. How do you think I feel ?????? But still I thank them for the result.

The dream scenario for us is for Melbourne , Freo, Hawks Saints and Gold Coast all to win. If us and 2 of the others happen it will be huge.

This may be heresy in this thread, but shouldn't Clarry be managed for a week. He has been full on this year and you feel as if he needs a freshen up coming into this phase of the season.

You were close Binman. That goal took us to a 51 point lead at the six minute mark of the 4th quarter. After that, it was a living nightmare. I was sitting there in utter disbelief as it unfolded. Not only did they head us and get the chocolates, they did it with time to spare.

Richmond supporters would be unlikely to be paroled after being incarcerated, so I think they were referring to the team.

I caught a train at Richmond and on the train I spoke to a couple of reasonably coherent and personable Tigers fans who more or less conceded they got out of jail. So that was quite a shock to me.

These articles will have no impact on the game this week. Certainly not on how the deees will play the game. In previous years it might have. This team now is made of sterner stuff and North will be found wanting. I hope they will be found wanting by at least 8 goals.

Well, we never drank it. We tipped it out as we ran. We were 9 kids in the family so it was dog eat dog but we didnt stoop to drinking the contents of the bottle.

Lamumba ??? You mean " The Prince, he who is gifted and who will have the last laugh" ???? Yes , I'm sure he will make more sense than just about anyone ............ not

I think a father who puts the image and future of a football club ahead of the physical welfare and well being of his own son is a poor excuse for a father. You embarass yourself Tim.

1974 for me. Ah those were the days, when I could string two woods together. I'm starting to loose it now. And it was my favourite subject !!!

Number 1 on the list has to be the North Melbourne big footy forum. I was just there. I feel decidedly duller for having read some of that drivel. The vitriol they spew is staggering when you consider their miserable history of low achievement. Bomberblitz ( or whatever they call themselves now ) just as bad. Perhaps a higher average IQ. I went once to Victoria Park and stood in front of the Social club watching the dees salute. That was tough as I dared not open my usually big mouth. I had to pretend to be upset at the result. Linton street, Moorabbin was dangerous in the old days, not so much because of the footy but because my siblings and I used to steal half empty lemonade bottles from between the feet of the Saints fans in the outer to take them to the milk bar for the refunds. We made a fortune from it( we were good )

I think there is a better chance of you getting slim, Fat than for Greene to get 2 weeks. Mind you, now that Lethlean is not there to Leth-lean on the MRP, perhaps we will see justice in this case and a lengthy penalty for Greene.

Gawn----- Tall Oliver------- Skillful

I think there should be no change especially considering the returning players need another game or two to consolidate. JKH may be vulnerable and Oliver looked proppy at the end. Give Jones another week to recover.

I used to be a bar steward. My wife says I still am............ [censored]

And Powell Pepper is no 60 kg weakling.

There was no getting out of that tackle by Powell Pepper. Hunt absolutely nailed him !!!!

Jane, your husband is observant enough and intelligent enough to be a demonlander !!!!!! ( and a Melbourne supporter as well )
