    A magnanimous approach that also deflects as much attention from us as possible is not only novel, it's something we should have been trying for some time. I'm all for it.

    AFL Autopsy RND3: Beaten by the Saints

    If you divide 1 by 150, it's 0.0066 recurring which is appropriate Enthused to see that we can have a crack and not have a psychotic breakdown when things aren't working, and this is also with some of our blokes having all-time shockers. Decent signs against a unit that could do well this year.

    Club Mgmt. Board of Directors as led by President Dave Barham

    Richardson coached for 6 seasons and is, incredibly, their longest serving coach after Jeans. Truly the madhouse of the AFL. We've got nothing on them.

    Didn't Blight say the same thing about Robert Harvey in the 90s, only to (briefly) coach him in 01?

    I think this needs to be looked at scientifically, which is to say that the last North Melbourne coach who didn't win a premiership and went on to coach another side was Malcolm Blight, who is also the last recycled coach to win a premiership without having won one in the immediately preceding...
