Even those muppets at AFL house couldn’t overlook him this week. Onya Dogga.

I feel like people are focusing entirely and somewhat unfairly on Petty’s first half against the Hawks. He was much improved in the second.

Gawn had a poor game by his standards but not sure Goldy had much to do with it. He just looked off from the start.

Good sides find a way. The gulf was evident in the end. Shout out to Dr D for telling me I was “the problem” for predicting at halftime that we would still win given North have a history of dropping away in the second half. Which is exactly what happened. Keep up the stellar work Doc. Today was a celebration of Dogga and Kozzie. What a draft that has already turned out to be. Both are stars rapidly on the rise and today we needed them to be. Especially with Gawn having a rare down day. Fritta probably best on. Hopefully doesn’t miss too many weeks. Clarry lifted when really needed. I’m choosing to focus on the positive aspects in that we were challenged and ended up winning by 5 goals. Onwards and upwards.

So 15 metre kicks is the rule of the week.

Fritta is on fire this year.

I love Koz so much. Genuine class.

My god that was lucky but I’ll take it.

.Yes, my post on Demonland is the problem. Clearly. My view is based on North’s history. If we don’t run over the top of them in the second half then it will go against the grain of every game they’ve played this year. We’re a better side. We need to lift the work rate. No need to respond. I don’t take anything you say seriously and this is no exception.

Never completely place your trust in Melbourne. Not now. Not ever. I still think we’ll win but Jesus we need about ten players to pull their finger out to pull this off.

Safe to say the bubble has burst ladies and gents.

If Baker is never seen again I’d be quite okay with that.

His worst game of the year by a mile so far. Scoreline is no surprise when you look at the players that are down.

Fair dinkum if Dunstall was shown wearing a North scarf right now my reaction would be mild surprise.

The 8-5 centre clearances feels more like 8-1.

BBB baby!

Boy did we need that. My Koz crush continues to grow #kozcrush

No doubt.

North have started several games well this year. The trend is they always drop off in the second half. No need for panic. Yet.

Keeps making dumb decisions.

Dunstall especially.

I’m a big Jones advocate but it’s the correct change.

Can’t help having a soft spot for Hoges. He’s a different unit. Even as we’re flying I wish he was still out there in red and blue. Not to be so hope he takes this chance with both hands (except against us).

Broken record on this but De Goey used to be widely recognised as a better player than Petracca. The extent to which that pendulum has swung is remarkable. Even the most one eyed Pies fan would pick Trac now.
