Hawthorn obviously had Mourinho in during the week to talk about how to park the bus.

Redundant, but I like to celebrate.

Something about Bodey just really pisses me off

Both the jumpers she has worn.

I think Tripodi has only played in 2 losing games at the highest level.

 

[Only Forwards]

We kept the side in fourth Goaless in a final.

It’s f***ing insane.

Shame it's incorrect, Erika missed the round 7 game against the Bombers, so she has only played in 24 consecutive wins.

16 players have played in 20 or more of the 25 games:
25 - Randall, Riddell, Craven, Ferguson, Rennie, Smith, Tripodi & Burch.
24 - Garner & O'Shea
23 - Eddey & O'Loughlin
22 - Wall & Shierlaw
21 - Bruton & Mia King

Tripodi has played 36 games for 33 wins, 2 losses and a draw.

Libby Burch has not lost since joining North.

She also missed the draw in 2024 though, so she's still 25-0 from her last 25 games.

Rennie very underrated player in our streak - is very reliable and doesn’t seek any fanfare.

Very interesting that shierlaw was used as backup ruck again

As I arrived last night, a Hawthorn official approached a couple of the sparse Hawks fans, asked them if they wanted to be in the guard of honour, they politely declined, he then asked if they wanted to take a couple of passes (he had a lot of passes!) in case they changed their minds, they again politely declined. #cantevenrentacrowd

I guess if most of their fans won't even line up for them, it's hardly surprising their players didn't line up for the GOAT!

She did to, how did I miss that.

 

[DarwinRoo]

I’m not surprised that there weren’t many hawks fans at the game, it was time for there walk to the park to play fetch.

 

[CURVE]

Erika's dad sounds like a bit of a character, going to the Melbourne Cup before seeing his daughter.

I get the Hawks wanting to take it up to us physically but I do feel it’s just poking the bear when it comes to our team. We took it right back up to them and their players were dropping like flies. Kearney in particular thrives on this shit and when Bodey sniped her it was clear we were in their heads.

 

[Tas]

Libby was awesome, she was shizenhousen last week and I don't recall her ever playing a game that poorly before, she more than made up for it.

 

[Caracas]

What we witnessed last night was an utter spifflication.

 

[giantroo]

Still can't believe we kept them goalless and kept them to the lowest score in a final ever!

Most sides that have "taken it up physically" to us have had to move away significantly from their preferred style of play to do so, it ends up putting themselves off their game more than it does us. If you are only going to score 0.3 trying to put us off our game then you are not a threat, you might as well forfeit.

We like the tough contested physical footy, we can play this way for four quarters and we will get the opportunities to get it on the outside and we do more damage than other sides playing this way. There is just no one-trick pony way to beat us, we are a side that likes the wet and greasy conditions the least because our outside game is elite. Hawks had everything going for them in this match in terms of conditions and the way they wanted to turn the game into a maul and despite the relatively close margin for the first three quarters, if you can't score you can't win.

Sides have to hit the preseason and get their fitness up to our standard and get their skills up to our standard, then they wont have to rely on gimmicks to beat us, they can just play their style of game. If Crocker said we had to play some different way in a final to try and beat a side I wouldn't have a lot of faith in him or the system.

 

[CURVE]

Pointless stat time.

During our 25-game winning streak:

• We have won 83 of the 100 quarters played and lost only 14.
• The total goals conceded in each quarter is less than the number of quarters played.
• The commentators last night made mention of North keeping opponents goalless in 53 of the 100 quarters, but going one step further, we have kept team scoreless in 25 of the 100 quarters. We have been held scoreless in only 4 quarters.

After watching the replay, Ruby did a lot of heavy lifting all game, she is a bit in the shadows behind Jas and Ash, but with Mia missing, has lifted her game superbly, quite often Boyd gets called as Ferguson, but i thought she was an important part of the defense, O'Shea just keeps getting better, easily BOG last night for me.

 

[Caracas]

Little things. I liked Jasmine Garner’s calm, authoritative presence ensuring the melees didn’t get out of hand for us.

 

[shintemaster]

She also missed the draw in 2024 though, so she's still 25-0 from her last 25 games.
