Doing flights back and forth for Mother's Day probably left the hammies a bit susceptible.

Not to mention that flight back from Perth and then sneaking straight back onto a plane to SA when Nobes had his back turned.

It was when he celebrated his mother's little known Russian heritage that did it

Look closely, a 2 week ankle as well once the swelling goes down

Noble waved his fist when he noticed shouting "Jaaaa-soooon!" while canned laughter played out of the Arden Street loudspeakers.

Well Jason had just nicked Noble's mums bloomers.

From the King himself:

Wayne Carey: There’s much for my old team to get right, and a few more harsh words might be needed

It really is a question of footy’s old school versus the new generation of footballer and how best to motivate them.

The biggest stick a coach has is dropping players. If players lack the hunger to improve and win, move them on quick.

Simpkin is confident No.1 pick Horne-Francis will recommit to North Melbourne beyond the length of his initial two-year deal, despite it emerging last week that the South Australian had parked contract discussions until the end of the season.

"I'm not real worried. He comes in with a smile on his face and everyone loves him. I have no reason to suspect why he wouldn't stay with us," he said.

"He is a great kid; we all love him at the club. He is just one of those young fellas that gets everyone up and about. We all love Jase. His footy speaks for itself; he is a tough, competitive person and he loves the contest."

Brad seemed incapable (unless not established).
Shaw not enough evidence really, although obviously tried a few changes.
Noble hasn't had the list. Very tough to drop players when you don't have workable replacements.

That said I think we are getting depth in the midfield (even though younger) including ruck and that is where the match committee can start to make statements.

He’s Italian?..

I understand his step father Fabian has played a significant role in his upbringing. If I’m able to ask , has his biological father been involved?

Depends did he BFNAAK?
Few ressies games wouldn’t hurt

I asked because my 9 year old boy (step son) and I were watching an interview and Slobbo asked about his pedigree and he mentioned that he had a step father which my boy found really exciting
