    I watched 'that' mark live in Canberra, from maybe 15m on the boundary. If I ever see another mark as good as that in person, I should have bought lotto tickets.

    Song change?

    Season 2019 review: After the controversial 2014 decision to change their longstanding club song lyrics, North Melbourne has just won their fifth consecutive premiership. After playing his 600th game, Boomer Harvey commented, "I'm not sure why we didn't think of this earlier. All that talk of...

    Grand Final winner

    I almost wish we had a playoff for 'bronze' like many other sports. North vs Port this weekend would be a cracker match. I reckon most neutral supporters would prefer that game to Cola vs Scum.

    Game Day Official preview/GDT - Semi-Final Geelong vs NMFC - MCG, Friday 7:50pm (Out: Jacobs / In: Harvey)

    Completely agree. I reckon Black (and to a lesser extent Petrie) played an unselfish team game by moving up the ground, opening up forward space and providing a link-up role. Brown's purple patch relied on having an open forward line. The only change should be Jacobs for Boomer. Not a knock on...

    Opinion The Levi should have played thread.

    The bloke is a true Shinboner. The way he goes about his game (hardness, determination) deserves comparisons to the greats like Arch, Stevo, Simpson etc.

    In my 20 years of following footy, this is the toughest season to watch

    You put it perfectly, much better than me. This is why 2014 (so far) is worse than 2006. I'm not writing off the finals, but unless we win 1 and play well in another, this will have been a dreadful waste of a season.

    In my 20 years of following footy, this is the toughest season to watch

    It's a reaction to the entire season, not just last night's loss. If yesterday was a once-off I wouldn't care, but we are consistently inconsistent. Yes we will probably play finals, but we should be doing so from the top 4, coming off a massive winning streak against poor sides. I wonder what...

    In my 20 years of following footy, this is the toughest season to watch

    The 2006 off-field was the worst I've ever felt for the club, but I didn't find the on-field as hard to watch as this year. I guess it's all about expectations; in 2006 I just accepted we were awful and tried to find some positives, whereas this year has been pure frustration and we will all...

    In my 20 years of following footy, this is the toughest season to watch

    I started following North closely in 1994, and I reckon this is the hardest season to watch of all. I love the club & will be a member forever, but I don't know if I can remain emotionally invested in the side currently representing the club. Our inconsistency and lack of heart is just...

    Review What went wrong vs Carlton

    There are no more words. There is obviously something wrong with the team/club right now. It is NOT RIGHT that we can beat good teams yet lose to the worst. I have no idea what is required. I don't like the typical knee-jerk "sack the coach/players" stuff, but I have nothing better. I'm only a...

    I am just gutted. Nothing has ever made me punch walls more than this North team.
