A big step backwards: Round 4, 2025 v Sydney

The title sums today’s post up. It isn’t a game where plenty of positives can be found.

Really good analysis of North's issues but demonstrates how Swans set up so much better.

I mean its not that surprising from a club thats won 16 out of the last 112 games.

North are going to have massive variations in performance week to week

The point of my post is not North's issues but the quality of the analysis.

It's not rubbish , maybe i shouldn't have used hate in that context , by the way Hambling played good footy last year . What do you mean made to work , hard , how do you know what the development coaches did with him and learn and how do you bring up the school system , the old bedford would not as been as eloquent as that
Also who in the development coaches do you know

More rubbish. If Hamling couldn't get a senior game with Freo, he sure as hell wasn't good enough to get a senior game with a minor premier and Grand Finalist. The club's talent was in identifying his unused potential and developing it. The old Duck would have said the same.

To be honest I didn't think Grundy was THAT good. He had a decent game, but surprised he got 6 votes.

Vintage Grundy. He bettered the in-form ruck of the competition, a guy who had left Gawn sitting on his ass.

Get your info right , Hambling was affected with injuries at Freo , so your call is rubbish

Grundy was good, but Xerri had been under an injury cloud all week and was a chance to not play at one point.

A lot of great nickname options for our new # 26 being bandied about, but I rather like the one the missus just suggested: RiBi.

I'm all for Bice Man, after the book. Miami is way too American, hardly in keeping with the zeitgeist.

If Cox switches him into a different position it’ll be one more role of the Bice.

Boom, boom

Stardom is beckoning SBD, open the door. You deserve your own chat show at least

You can only beat the opposition they put in front of you. It was good to see Grundy working hard.

It was a bit insulting to hear the commentators putting everything down to a poor North performance and giving little credit to the team that dished out the hiding. If we beat Pies this weekend it'll all be down to their loss of a few players

It was ever thus when our opponent is Victorian.
