Hopefully they do keep plunging and we throw the cheque book at Docherty, and offer up a first rounder. He would be a perfect replacement for the Dempster hole.

Yep. No forward line at all . When injuries inevitably occur in the midfield they will be shot .
CLIFF + FALL + 2017 = FREO
If you are in the cellar its unlikely you can fall.

I agree all the coaches who signed the form should have been sacked as they signed it without knowing what it was if you believe them , which I don't . They just tried to shift all the blame onto Danks but he wouldn't accept the blame so somehow they tried to make it the AFL fault . Hey guys it was your fault, you knew what you were doing , you were trying to cheat with drugs and got caught.

When I first saw him I thought wow, he's going to be a champion. Don't know what happened.

As of about a week ago North had an alarmingly long injury list, might have been as many as 15 and now Mason Wood has a serious hamstring injury and is not due back until at least round 3.
Teams that have a lot of injuries during the preseason often get a lot during the season as well, so there is the potential there that they might really fall off a massive cliff this year.
They fell in a hole last year when they got some injuries and then they lost 5 of their best 22 (including 3 of the top 7 in their B&F) at the end of the year, so how will they go this year if they have a number of injuries (on top of losing those 5)!?
Lucky they have a piss-easy draw, they might really need it.

Just came on here to post that. 4 more disposals than anyone else on the ground, despite the fact it looks like he's playing inside the F50.
Just snapped a goal from outside the boundary line for good measure.
Our draw was rated 3rd hardest by Champion Data, but that's partly because we play North twice and they made finals last year (and the two before that), so CD would rate them as two difficult games for us. If North do end up falling into a big hole this year that could go from two games that CD rated as difficult, to two relatively easy games, which could significantly affect the overall difficulty rating of our draw.
They will definitely fall off a cliff this year. Losing Wells was the final nail in the coffin that they would struggle to be competitive.
Would be happy for Jaeger to win the Brownlow as long as Hawthorn finish outside the eight.

Must be frustrating for North fans, they always seemed to never really threaten to win it.
They loaded up pretty hard with veterans, but unlike us, never got close.
They could surprise, but more likely to fall into the abyss

When you're retire off Harvey, Dal and trade away Wells, you concede that it's over

Bloody annoying ey! And how clarko shits rainbows and how hodge brought awareness to drink driving.
They lost Lewis and Mitchell, who barely carried them to finals last year.
Gained Roughhead, but Mitchel and O'Meara still have big shoes to fill.
