So we should all rock up to Marvel at Sunday 12:30 just in case, while we still await the TAS government's decision?

So now that tickets are officially on sale, I guess we can put the discussion to bed?

When he was at Freo I was hoping he wouldn't rip it up. Now at GWS I'm happy for him to do quite well.

Surely now that the North boys will exit isolation at midnight, an announcement from 12:01am onwards will be made that the Hobart game can go ahead. I just can’t work out the logic if the game can’t take place down there.

I'm surprised Jon Ralph is confident the game will be in Hobart according to those he's spoken to at North Melb. I would've thought the obvious decision would be to move the game to Marvel given Tasmania's hard stance on their borders - not withstanding the fact that there's more of a chance of catching the Spanish flu down there than North spreading COVID.

Jon Ralph confident the game will remain in Hobart.

If it wasn't ANB's best ever game on Saturday night, it would be damn close to it. That snap from the boundary was a thing of beauty.

It must be about the optics rather than the health risk. There's a better chance of one winning tattslotto every week for a year than North Melbourne spreading the COVID 19 virus into the Tasmanian community.

Lockdown just ended in Perth. I wonder if that now tips the scales towards Hobart?

Looks like we’re finally going to have a game where both sides score 100 pts. A throw back to the old days where this happened regularly. (and first time since we beat Carlton in 2019)

We’ve played there 3 times and lost all of them by under a goal.

Why would this game be re-located from Hobart. It’s not as if the North boys mingled in the community I would’ve thought.

That hasn’t been confirmed yet. TAS government could still provide an exemption for North to come down to Tassie.

I’d have to agree.

I’m sure the phrase “April premiers” will be thrown around on Bigfooty tonight.

As David King keep mentioning this week we still haven’t beaten anyone of note.

Is it just me or is the crowd way unders at the moment?

What ever happens tonight, it’s now factually incorrect that we haven’t beaten anyone of note. Geelong are a reigning grand finalist who just beat a contender by 97 pts, and we kept them to 60pts at the G. It was a win full of merit. People should now be called out on this narrative if they continue to accuse us of it, if things go south tonight.

Yes. Bad things happen when we play North at Hobart.

We need to have a chat to Lachie Ash if he’s feeling a little home sick (assuming he’s from VIC)

This post probably won’t age well but I reckon the Dogs will win 20 games this year.

If VIC allows North back straight away you'd imagine our game next week will be transferred to Marvel Sunday 1:10pm, if Tasmania won't allow North in their state.

Whatever happens, I really hope we don't have to have our bye next week and then play North in the mid season bye. 16 weeks without a break would be a disaster.

Freo V North game will go ahead.

Very much off topic but North are in WA which may very well be in lockdown shortly. Guess who plays North next week?
