Well deserved, along with Lockett one the best FF I've seen.

Hang on, I thought the Tasmanian Devil was an American creation.

Cancer twice and now a third ACL, some guys have little to no luck. I hope his surgery is a success and he can get back on the field next season. All the best Doc.

We play three teams who are being talked about as Premiership contenders (GWS, Carlton & Brisbane) in Rounds 1, 3 & 4, I can't see us winning any but I would love an upset, give our Joey's a little confidence early in the season. In round 2 we play Fremantle at Marvel, it's probably our only...

Big call coming from a fan of the most morally corrupt club in the country.

Very sad to hear about Brayshaw's forced retirement, I hope he can have a long and happy life and without any side effects.

True, we should have gone back-to-back. :)

While I think North will remain in the bottom 6, I still think it is fairly difficult to predict how we will go because we are such a young team with too many unknowns. How will our new kids, in particular McKercher and Duursma perform at AFL level? Can Sheezel take the next step? Can LDU and...

1998 - It should have been over by halftime, but we shot ourselves in the foot kicking 6.15 and it was enough to give the Crows a sniff.

North Melbourne 1976 - Went into the Grand Final as favourites, but much like 1975 when nothing was going to stop North winning their first Premiership, nothing was going to stop Hawthorn winning for Crimmins. North Melbourne 1978 - Were the best team all season but couldn't get past Hawthorn...

We were never a great defensive team during the Pagan era, we had the worst defense of the top 8 teams in 1999 and third worst in 1996. In fact, we conceded more points than every other team during the Pagan's 10 years in charge. It may have been one of the reasons so many found us a great...

Why only Curnow, why not Tex or Larkey? I expect Adelaide to improve this season and fight for a spot in the top 8 and perhaps thanks to relatively favorable draw could finish as high as 5th. They were a free scoring team last season, if they can take another step, create more opportunities...

He actually missed out in 2015, but only by 1 goal, he kicked 24 goals in 25 games. It would have been his 14th season averaging 20 and 1 and sitting all alone on top of the list.

1. Brisbane 2. Collingwood 3. Greater Western Sydney 4. Sydney 5. Adelaide 6. Melbourne 7. Port Adelaide 8. Gold Coast 9. Carlton 10. St Kilda 11. Hawthorn 12. Geelong 13. Western Bulldogs 14. Fremantle 15. North Melbourne 16. Essendon 17. Richmond 18. West Coast And some...

Sam Wright's intercept mark between two Essendon players in the 2014 Elimination totally changed the momentum of the game. North scored a goal from the interception and followed up with 4 more goals in the next 10 minutes. If Wright doesn't intercept, Essendon probably score and lead 56-17...

There was also a number of our younger players who missed some of the season through injury. Archer, Harvey, Coleman-Jones, Xerri, Goater and Powell all missed at least a month and of course George missed the whole season, even Stephenson missed a couple of games. While I our injury list...

1994 PF - North v Geelong. It will be 30 years this September since I saw the game live, and while I have never seen the replay, there are so many moments (besides the last 20 seconds) that unfortunately, I have been unable to forget. Most commentators from that period have it as their...

Brayden George.

North Adelaide and East Fremantle. We used to get a few WAFL and SANFL games each season (generally finals shown on ABC) in Canberra back in the early 80's.

No. But there may be a season where I follow a team a little more closely because I like a player, or there is a story behind the team that interests me. It's becoming rarer in the men's game, but this season I enjoyed watching the Swans in the AFLW because of their improvement from a winless...

He'll always be a Melbourne person, but he is a very important figure for Carlton and North Melbourne, perhaps more so at North because we hadn't achieved anything before he arrived. May not be as important in the history of the Swans as someone like Paul Roos but I'm sure he is still loved in...

North Adelaide?

Did they really hack Port Adelaide or did they just type "ABC123" when asked for the password?

Like the moon landing it never happened. :)

Winston Abraham - injured his knee crashing into James Hird in the first game of 2001 and never played again. He was 26 years old and was one of the most creative and naturally talented players in the AFL. He was loved by Bruce McAvaney long before he fell in love with Cyril Rioli. Wayne...

I was going to make mention of Abraham, one of the most naturally talented players I've ever seen. Nice to see Allison get a mention as well, he gets forgotten a little because North had so many forward options in the 90's.

My pre-draft predictions. Things could change before Christmas. 1. Brisbane 2. Collingwood 3. Melbourne 4. Carlton 5. Port Adelaide 6. Sydney 7. GWS 8. Western Bulldogs 9. Adelaide 10. St Kilda 11. Gold Coast 12. Fremantle 13. North Melbourne 14. Geelong 15. Richmond 16...

Perhaps the Cup should be named the Dr. Allen Aylett Cup, after all he did the most in the early days to set up an AFL competition. :D ;)

Wayne Carey - 1994 Preliminary Final vs Geelong Kicked 6.4 from 24 disposals almost winning the game single handed and all while being unable to train during the week because he had a torn calf.
