Last game, well that was a memorable season.
May last years final-round crushing defeat stay fresh in your minds as you run out today Eagles.
Otherwise have a great game... and eyes on Foley!

You never know, now the pressure is off, the North boys might come out to play like they did when Scott was sacked.

No. That won't happen. It's not even meant to happen.

We have selected 4 x KPD's for starters.

And he’d still be your best player.

He'd be a chance right now.

Anyway, let's hope the "depleted" Eagles can overcome formidable adversary that is 2020 North Melbourne and deliver a fighting "backs to the wall" victory "against all odds".

The Alamo, Dunkirk, The Charge of the Light Brigade & Agincourt have got nothing on this.

The good folk of Perth could erect a statue outside the ground in honor of the momentous event, and call it "The Brave 22".

Good luck.

All the best and remember if you ever want to sell some more home and away games, we’re always happy to oblige.

i imagine long term support of norf would cause irreparable damage to the human soul, mind and spirit

Very true.

This is the price we pay for not being the McDonalds version of a football club.

Yes, but she's all ours mate.............formed in North Melbourne, and by North Melbourne people...........since 1869.

We are an actual Australian made cultural icon, not some business model.
Really? I thought WCE, Crows, POrt, Freo and AFL house had a majority shareholding in Norf?
s**t investment, no doubt, but its nice to have alturistic interests.

We're a members owned & controlled club mate.

There's nothing "Indian Pacific" about us.

Wow, you know your club is s**t when the only thing you have to brag about is that you use some kind of backwards corporate structure. Then again, that is Norf's problem in a nutshell, an insecurity complex and inability to adapt to the times. Have fun being mediocore and try not to go insolvent in the next few years.

You cant own something you cant pay for mate. Like any club in the AFL, your members are just a money source to try and keep the business of a footy club afloat- something that your paltry membership base cant do.
If your members are controlling the club then their ladder position is a fair reflection of that. All other clubs use professionals for that sort of work. Something you could try, maybe hit us up for a loan to hire someone?

Huh? Don't you take money off a hamburger chain?

If we live or die, then it will be up to us. The same way it has been for 151 years. We're still here.
