6: rivers 5: may 4: oliver 3: fritsch 2: petracca 1: hibberd

in terms of the midfield, we really missed sparrow brayshaw is not a midfielder who suits our game style, as his ability to switch from offense to defense is very slow petracca was clearly hobbled and couldn't get any acceleration out of the contest til after half time, and then only sporadically

great game and i hated every second of it

funny how we go to pieces in the rain

gus no helmet

adopted son of fabian francis

and footscray

i dspute this north, meth coke were easy kills, and they snuck over the line vs the other three footscray win the best of that lot and from memory it was their key forwards - two of whom are missing this evening - that were particularly damaging

i imagine we'll package our 2x 2023 1st rounders and 1x 2024 1st rounder for pick 1 i want a premiership and pick 1 kplsthxbye

they want that #1 pick (that they're going to trade to us)

6 of our last 7 games on fta it's a huge win given that sunday @ 3.20pm is a premium timeslot

like every game, will be won and lost in the midfield and on turnover if we control the ball in post-clearance as we have when we've been at our best, we'll limit their opportunities to utilise their small forward line approach and hit the scoreboard it should be a cracking game between two top four sides

us? bloods footscray flagmantle? bears tiggas? poos&wees filth gw$? really hope i'm wrong with the fourth game and the 💀🏇 gets back on track this round...

pillage em at will, i say that said, i don't think larkey is all that and a bag of crisps - no defensive side whatsoever

rivers and brayshaw increased midfield rotations i personally favour the former over the latter

why? the afl is all about maximising revenue - these two times will get double the crowd of a north / footscray / st. kilda match-up we're VERY lucky to now have two regular 'blockbuster' games in our calendar

new contract vs no new contract?

we're a free to air favourite, which is important for repucom sunday 3.20pm arguably more favourable than saturday nites for ch 7

i thought woewodin may be a chance to debut as replacement for sparrow, but no chanting announcement as yet makes it less rather than more likely

should've been brought in years ago

this is gil's legacy - started with the goodes booing racism scandal, ended with hawthorn's racism investigation scandal

boy oh boy wowee https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/north-melbourne-coach-alastair-clarkson-to-step-away-from-football-indefinitely-20230518-p5d9bh.html?btis

is nev still playing for the filth's vfl club?

didn't the peptides kick the harmes' tyres last year, and then brad scott failed to meet him for a chat? with kynan brown likely to come in, plus a high-end pick (or two?), i'd be sad to see harmes go but to me he's there or thereabouts along with jordon for a spot in our best 23 so it would make sense if he was looking for security as his contract with the mfc comes to an end also, the end of this season is is 'pre-agent' year, so it would make sense from that perspective too
