Okay okay okay.... Seriously, when the **** did Rance become so ******* good?! I'll put my hand up & say I was very very wrong a week or 2 ago.... I haven't seen the Tigers all that much in the last 2-3 years, so all I remember is Rance basically being a taller version of Cam Shenton... Now he's a ******* freak!

Late bloomer I think.

Was pretty good in 2013 but became a gun last year.

The race for the spoon is heating up! More exciting than the minor premiership for me.

Gold Coast!! Swallow and Ablett back. Day as well. Playing well.

Can easily see them get a run on and start to show something in the second half of the season....

Rekon this game says more about North personally.

Brad Scott's campaign to abolish/remove the "Shinboner Spirit" had been a massive, massive fail.

Talent and professionalism will get you so far but you wont reach the top without heart, spirit, culture, character... Whatever you want to call it.

I rekon this is why Trout and Co are putting so much weight on character and personality.

Ablett is looking fat

North have basically no elite players, just soldiers. Destined to be middle tier.

Suns pantsing North.

Inspired recruiting by Geelong to et that Ablett for a round three pick

Dal, Thompson, Boomer and Goldstein are all elite.

Higgins, Petrie, Waite, Thomas, Nahas, Swallow, MacMillan and Atley are all very talented.

The problem is they have no soul. They are 22 individuals, not a team.

I think everyone went way too early on the Gary Ablett call

Yup me included

 

[TheLastEmperor]

Dixon making Scott Thompson look ordinary

Gaz will be fine

Not me. He's the best player I've ever seen and will never doubt him. Be nice if he played for us

 

[CALL ME SNAKE]

I think everyone went way too early on the Gary Ablett call

Gary Ablett firing at 70% is still better than most.
I used to hate him. But he's just too bloody good to hate.

 

[God Save Max King]

3 goals, 30 disposals, 11 clearances (7 from centre) and 7 Inside 50s for the great man.

 

[crasha301]

Old gaz would have got 5 goals 45 touches. Just saying

 

[TheLastEmperor]

Early call. Blues to beat the Dogs

He looked like a roid junky when he came back one year. He's a gun though what ever he did.

 

[Rors]

Gaz is done. Will never be the same.

Early crow?

Hard tagged & still 31 touches, 3 goals

 

[crasha301]

Geez stringer doesn't give alot of effort does he? Horrible body language to.

 

[Barrels]

Norf are pathetic. Perennial pretenders.

 

[Simple Jack]

I did say even though he won't be back at the same level he'll still be good. Might not have even gotten 3 votes tonight. I.e. below the standard.

Nah, he was extremely tentative int he first quarter before apparently gaining some confidence. He'll kill it from next week on as usual.

He has no equal.

 

[TheLastEmperor]

The Dogs again playing the uber-flood. And their supporters last week blamed Richo's game plan!

Was coming in to post this. Rekon they are cooked and just trying to grind out games to save energy for games against top teams.

Watch how we run tomorrow vs how we had to play last week. Will be night and day. There is a lesson to be learned for Richo and the coaches to not fall into that trap again.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Lol B-lose!

 

[cooperrules]

Stringer is a whinging w***er

 

[Lord_Bumfluff]

How on earth did Tory Dickson kick 7 goals against Freo, he is beyond average
