    Ireland tour postponed

    Heard somewhere we'll be playing Scotland instead?

    Player Watch #17: Riley 'Stiffy' Hardeman - set to debut vs Crows

    Loved his draft highlights video and he's backed that up at training and in the VFL. Has the discipline to defend, as well as the ability to rebound with his speed and left foot. A well-rounded player fancy that. Go well young Riley

    Player Watch #3: Harry Sheezel - 2023 AFL RS, AFLPA Best First Year Player, 2023 SBM, NMFC Best Young Player - signed thru 2030

    He's hopefully our Cripps/Jones/Zorko. The one who stays loyal and leads the club out of the darkness. Would be utter madness to trade him, because he'll be captain by the time he's 23. Most important player since the Duck

    Player Watch #44: Cameron Zurhaar - [AFL.com] NM offers 5yr deal - CZ interest from SYD/GC - CZ mgr says 'wants to see improvement' & 'team success'

    Unfortunately no FA who's any good will come anywhere near us. This will be Brady's final trade/draft period before he's let go, just have to hope he doesn't add any more spuds on long term deals. His record at identifying players from other clubs, would have to be the worst of any list manager...

    Bye bye Clarkson

    I'm glad to hear that, in a morbid way. Had felt guilty that the club caused his issues.

    Bye bye Clarkson

    The problem is the playing group and overall culture of the club. This group has caused Rhyce to have a nervous breakdown and made Noble look like clueless twit (which he probably was anyway to be fair). Now they're embarrassing a 4 time premiership coach, there's no where to hide behind...

    Player Watch #29: Will Phillips

    At least Will has clean hands, not many on the list do. It's not much, but it's something. Plenty he should be getting a game ahead of

    Player Watch #28: Bigoa Nyuon

    He was decent against the Cats, not sure what the hell happened today. Has to be up there with some of the worst individual games played by a North player.

    Roo supporters in Canberra?

    My Grandmother and extended family live in Canberra, mainly around the Weston Creek area. But they're Scots, who don't follow footy. Had a mutual "Go Roos" in Coolemon Court once, with a bloke who noticed my member's cap.

    Opinion Is this rock bottom?

    By far our best chance in the 21st century so far was 2015. We had finals experience from the year before. Then added Waitey and Higgo. Taz was moved down back to spectacular success and Ben Jacobs became a tagger to spectacular success. I've made it very clear I'm not a Bard fan, but after he...

    Opinion Is this rock bottom?

    We were trying last year, we were just shite. It was generally senior players who cost us in tight games and we blew up several games we could've won. GC didn't care at all. You either tell the boys to lie down and not try or turn it into a farce with ridiculous positional moves like 2009...

    Opinion Is this rock bottom?

    Don't stress too much about it he isn't, never was and never will be a North player. We'd be exactly where we are now regardless of whether he was here or not. 18 year olds can't turn the dial GC turned in one of most pathetic single game performances of any side in the comp last year, in...

    Player Watch #36: Tyler Sellers

    It's a quiet trend that big blokes taken mature age, still need some time to adapt to AFL level. Scooter looked miles off in his first year, Kal Dawson has shown the benefit of time as well. Big Benny Brown also had a slowish start before he broke out in the * final. Sam Collins was drafted 22...

    Bumped We don't play footy to lose - autopsy vs Gold Coast

    The only way we lost that game was to blatantly take the piss, like 2009 Melbourne. Larkey subbed off, Corr to Full Forward, Goldy to full back, Jy in the ruck sort of thing. GC were pathetic. Melbourne didn't escape and neither would've we. We lost 20 in a row because we were crap, not...
