Doubt he plays more than another 10 games at AFL level, if that.
Can pretty much separate his career into pre and post betting suspension. Looked like a future superstar before it, been nowhere (apart from a few flashes) since.
We have many things to worry about. X and this deal are at the lower end of the scale.
He's the clear number 1 ruck for the next couple of years at least, while we assess Goad's development.
If he gets supplanted, then that's no big deal. We either have an experienced, ready to go back up. Or...
Both the Saints and Port have been dreadful tonight. Pretenders the both of them.
Tipped Port but hope the Saints get up, to see the sack Ken thread go into overdrive
Hopefully nothing too serious for young Brayden.
A big part of our future and has a lot of what we need. Can't wait to see those 60m roosts in the 1's
Boy oh boy, surely we're due a change of luck soon.
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
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
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...
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...
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.
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.
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
Some clubs can avoid the consequences of their actions. We aren't one of them
GC were woeful in round 24, it would've taken hijinks more obvious than 2009 Melbourne to lose. And the AFL would've thrown the book and made an example of us.
Reid is good, extremely good in fact. But you can't sell...
The hard part is when and how does this get better?
If Clarko can't get us going no one will. We'll just keep cycling through and breaking more coaches and players.
Lynch has been outstanding and we seem to recruit some handy footballers to our VFL list. Might be getting to the point it's more attractive to play there, than the 1's
We're premiership contenders in the AFLW. Quite competitive and a decent chance of playing finals in the VFL.
Yet the AFL side is a backhole where any hope goes to die. Really wonder how we can get 2 parts of the program right, but the main one is a disaster zone.
Not sure if he'll make it long term, but the lad played well today. And if he doesn't make it, it won't be for a lack of effort or desire. Would rather give guys like Blake that genuinely care a run.
Nice to see him have his moment and put through his first couple of goals.
Think it will come down to Uzzie's form and how much he values retiring at home.
If he struggles against India or is desperate for a home farewell, he'll retire then.
Otherwise it's only 2 or 3 more tests and start fresh with the new opener, in the next cycle.
I assume you're referring to McRae and Kingsley?
Both did an apprenticeship of over a decade as an assistant at multiple clubs. McRae was 48 when he coached his first game. Kingsley was 47.
Mitchell is an outlier in the current coaches, only doing a short apprenticeship. Have to go back to...
All the best Biggie!
Will add some athleticism down back, but a tough first up opponent in Henry.
Make every post a winner young man. Because long term spots are very much up for grabs, if he plays well.
