    D1 - 2014

    Terribly scrappy game down at the Fearon today. Well done to MHSOB, they had a real crack, and may trouble some teams this year, especially at home.

    DIVISION 1 2013

    Is Martinov #22 ? If so, he played an excellent game...he was pinch-hitting everywhere.

    Review 5 rounds in, club & players

    Excellent write-up...Don't agree 100%, but maybe 95%!!

    D1 Division 1 - 2012

    NOBs too good today. Got off to an excellent start and managed to maintain their early break. To Peninsula's credit, they threw everything at NOBs after half time, but could never quite bridge the gap. Got within 10 points in the last quarter but NOBs always managed to get a steadying goal. As a...

    Oh Gerard....special comments indeed.

    Must admit that Eddy seemed genuinely excited by North's performance. As for G Healy's comment, Einstein himself could not have said it better.....

    Umpiring

    Does anyone else reckon that one of the big negatives this year has been the general drop in standard of umpiring across the whole competition? When watching games (both live and on tv - both North & neutral games) I am continually bemused by the inconsistencies of interpretation by the umps. I...

    The media's hypocrisy in the treatment of North Melbourne!

    Catman, I agree with much of what you are saying. However, I think you will find that C Wilson has had a go at E McGuire many times regarding his conflicts of interest, especially early in his tenure. Maybe if North were performing better on-field, she would not have so much ammunition; it's a...

    The predicament we are in ...

    7 - 4 ??? I would have thought 8 -3 as a minimum given our draw. Yes, the Geelong win was an upset. But we were widely-tipped favourites to beat Essendon in Rd 1, ditto Port Adelaide and Western Bulldogs.

    Toast Cable set for AFL fame

    I was fortunate enough to see Cabes play for North. We should all feel priveliged to be able to say that he represented our club. His record stands for itself, and it is churlish to compare it with others. Let's just celbrate the fact that he is a Legend, and he is ours!! BTW, fantastic story...

    RECRUITERS - They hold the key to success.

    Terry Wallace currently on Ch9 "TAC Future Stars" analysing North's first round selections over the past 10 years. Wow, the trading over the years looked very ordinary. (Although Plough's reinvention as a "list manager' is ironic).

    Toast Eugene Arocca Tribute Thread

    Not too long after he became CEO, the phone rang at the Gasometer residence. "It's Eugene Arocca, are you going to hand your shares back to the club?" I could not believe that he was calling me personally. he then gave me his personal number and told me that I could call him any time. That...

    Roast Caroline Wilson - Is her article even legal?

    OK, yes she makes my skin crawl with her constant criticism of North, but there is plenty in her article that is a real cause for concern. Don't shoot the messenger. Our club has real problems. Remember the line about the fish rotting from the head.

    Well have a look at what we have become

    "Look what we have become" Yes, indeed. The laughing-stock of the AFL.

    3 years of Scott 3 100 + point losses

    Absolutely fantastic thread, guys. A very sobering read. The cold light of a Sunday morning did not make yesterday's loss any easier to take. The word 'aberration' is rattling around in my head. Clearly, given the stats produced on this thread, Saturday June 2nd was no aberration.

    D1 Division 1 - 2012

    Wash-up from yesterday: 1. Great win by the Willy boys yesterday in a shoot-out! Huge game v Ormond next week. 2. Are NOBs and Old Geel the real deal? 3. MHS win three in a row. 4. Big question from yesterday...what's going on at Whitefriars? Two close losses at home, now in 6th place. Can't...
