I think it’s purely about committing to our first real rebuild ever. As I’ve posted a few times, him kicking 60 goals for north the next 3 years won’t make too much of a difference. Best case scenario we scrape into finals. More likely we finish bottom 6, at least initially. I support the...

Just wanted to point out that the reason Brown runs more than any player in the AFL is that he pushes up to wings etc. he’s not just a full forward obviously. Also he averaged more contested marks per game than Hawkins, Dixon and Cameron in 2019. For what it’s worth.

Whilst he certainly had his faults and it was time for him to move on, I’m a little sick and tired of Scott bashing from North supporters. Were they bagging him when we came back and beat Essendon in 2014 final, or the week after when we jumped Geelong and won the game in the first qrt? Or how...

Sorry for the intrusion Sainters, hope this goes down ok. Couple of points for an impartial viewer. 1: McCartin. I think you are being a little bit harsh on him. Sure he didn't have a great game, but he didn't get great service. At least he worked hard when he didn't have the footy. The thing...

We got 47,622 the year before on a Friday night against the dogs. We were 0-3 this year leading into good Friday. A win round 1 for us and a win from you against the lions and we should see high 40's.

I could see that or a 2nd next year

Hi saints Question. Assuming both clubs kept their picks this year, do u think pick 1 or 2 for the two saints first rounders would be something to consider?

Nah we played crap I think and were lucky to be infront at half time

There are certain truths that hold true every year. North being puss after the bye is one. Though I thought beating Richmond was an annual certainty and that didn't happen so any things possible. Except losing to Melbourne

I only saw the first half but u guys got reemed by the umps. That free against membrey was bizarre and the contact below the knees against u in your forward line was even worse. That usually only happens when u play west coast at subi

Would u prefer to play for st kilda or another club?

Lol. Inhumanly slow facial expressions.

Maybe Richmond are crap though. Saints will be contending from 2018 I think.

Hickey is pretty good no doubt, it Goldys class but pretty good. As Goldy is quite capable up forward it would be a really good combo for the next 4 years.

Good luck with Fyfe by the way, it would be an amazing get

Complicated. Yes I see Goldy as an early second round late first round. Just depends on the club that is willing to take the risk.

No worries mate. Just thought upgrading to an all Australian ruckman capable of kicking 5 goals on max Gawn and offering your mids silver service might have been a good short term strategy. But as you said you have pierce. So all good.

He left as a fee agent?

Nope. Contracted for next year and maybe the year after

Hi sainters Forgive the intrusion. Hypothetically say u ended up with pick 12, pick 5 (Hawks pick lol), and Fyfe. Do you think the saints would be interested in pick 12 for Goldy? Initially I discounted saints as a Goldy suitor but with Fyfe u would be challenging immediately. Thoughts

Funny

And sorry, i didn't realise people were responding to Arjen.

What about him?

Ummmm no. McDonald will continue to play the fantastic footy he has for North this year for the next decade.

No, he broke his foot the week after. We haven't had a tagger since.

It sure looks that way. He is not is usual self. Conversely Maj is jumping all over any ruckman he comes up against at the moment.

Some talk amongst us North fans (all completely unsubstantiated) we might debut a kid by the name of Mountford this week for the sole purpose of tagging Steven. Has been playing a tagging role in the VFL the last 3 weeks getting in the best and the only player on our list it seems with the speed...

Boyd is so s**t

What a game! History making and all round interesting to boot. Much respect to u guys for the quick rebuild, though you've still obviously got more work ahead of u. We won't be playing Waite this week. So Maj should hold his spot. Can't see much in the way of other changes as well.

With Thomas out, and Turner out, and Anderson and Garner, it will be interesting to see how we structure up. Wood is a certainty to come in, a 192 cm KPF/Winger that runs all day. Kicked 4 and had 23 last week. Hasn't been renowned for his defensive acts, so it is exploitable. One would assume...
