Could Dom Tyson be in the mix here? Crows need more midfield options - albeit one that doesn't turn the ball over as much. And as others have mentioned, ANB could be a sweetener to a first round draft pick. Has he even signed for us next year?

Indeed we were the away side in 06. However my post was that we haven't beaten North as the away team on a Saturday since 1991. yeah I know, I'm being a bit silly with these random useless facts.

Spot on.

Here's another zinger: Melbourne have beaten North Melbourne as the away side twice since 1991. 1997 and 2006. EDIT - We also beat them in 2005 up in Manuka as the away side.

We haven't beaten North in an away game on a Saturday since 1991. That day Jako kicked 11.8. I doubt half of the people on this forum were born back then.

Cleared by the MRP.

1992, (WACA) 1995 (WACA), 1997 (WACA), 1999, 2011 and 2014

We've never beaten West Coast at night in Perth.

Before last Sunday, the last time we beat the Dogs at Etihad as an away game was round 2 2005. And it was the first time we beat them at Etihad on a Sunday as the away team since round 22 2001 (We did beat them on a Sunday as the home team in round 16 2004).

I'd say Brent Harvey has had a fair bit to do with that. Last year he kicked 6 against us and in 2015 he was the difference as well. Waite and Higgins are the danger men this week.

Very good point, except in 2001 we finished higher than North.

In fairness we match up terribly against Carlton. They always seem to grow a leg against us, particularly in our improved years of 15,16 and round 2 this year.

We have to go all the way back to 2016, when we were 4-4 with a percentage of 106.

We've never beaten North in a home and away game on a Sunday as the home side....EVER! Infact we're 0-9. We played them on a Sunday as the home side in 1997, 1999, 2001, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2014 and 2015 and lost them all.

I reckon we smashed some hoodoos on the weekend: The first time we beat Adelaide on a Saturday night since round 2 2001 (when Leoncelli kicked that goal on the siren) The first time we've won a round 8 game since 2006 (Vs Hawthorn)

If Brayshaw doesn't kick on this year, perhaps we could throw him in the mix. Crows need mids.

McCartin's going to be a very special player. Time will tell who will end up having the better career. Saints made the right move as Riewoldt isn't going to be there forever. He was nearly done last week.

The last time we beat Carlton on a Sunday was round 22 2007. We're also 0-3 against them in the 3:20pm time-slot

One last one to end the season: Haven't tasted success against Geelong on a Saturday afternoon since rd 20 2005.

Yeah you got me, not too many times under lights against Freo. 1997, 1999, 2001 and 2006 I think.

Here's another zinger for you all. The players were seen celebrating hard in Darwin after our win over Freo in round 16. Why? Because it was our first win under lights against Freo as the home team since round 20 1996. A 20 year hoodoo worth celebrating!

The Collingwood win in round 4 holds special significance for the club. It was our first 'away' win against them on a Sunday....ever.

Sue, here's more hoodoos to float your boat: It was the first time we won a home Saturday afternoon game at the MCG V's Hawthorn since rd 22 1990. It was the first time we won a Saturday afternoon game (home or away) V's Hawthorn at the MCG since round 15 2000. It was our away game. It was the first time we beat Hawthorn on a Saturday afternoon as our home game in Victoria since rd 17 1994. Venue was Princes Park.

Another 3 (random) hoodoos to smash: 1) Never won an away game at night V's Port Adelaide....ever. 2) Haven't beaten Carlton on a Sunday since 2007 3) Haven't beaten Geelong on a Saturday since 2005
