Well that a misery to watch - maybe they were all knackered after a huge effort last week?
How do you explain that, playing a 17th placed team?
It's like teams with nothing to play for in the last round, lift deliberately to play their best game and wreak as much havoc on the finals team just to damage their chances- I mean what's with that, why would you do that?

Hope that trend continues with adelaide & sydney tbh...

Kangaroos took Brisbane to within a point as well.

Simpson presser.
Yeo won't be ready for first final

He wont be ready till 2021

Absolutely! Here's hoping.

 

[FreeTK]

He wont be ready till 2021

It's looking that way.

Apparently he is still experiencing pain.

Was it 2014, we relying on the tigers to lose against the swans at the SCG to make the 8 and caused a bloody upset.

I was kidding, but didn't know that about Lions? So we did okay really with a depleted team, considering the melts on here. Like many, glad it's all over.

It did give us cotchin winning the toss and kicking into the the wind though. Down by 10 goals at quarter time. I want that Richmond back, bringing the lols

 

[Snake_Baker]

The only thing beating North, is North.

Should be at least 4 goals in front.

No doubt, we'll pay for the inefficiency.

I wish we won against the dogs

You mean wish we didn't have an umpiring decision cost us a guaranteed top 4 position. The entirety of the ball needs to be behind the padding. It's in the ******* rulebook.

 

[WCE_phil]

Half our starting forward line and all 3 of our starting centre square mids not playing. The fact we are able to win anything is a miracle.

 

[THE A5]

It's incredible to think Cameron isn't in this team.

He has all the requisite skills and qualities that we need inside 50 yet finds himself out of the team.

He must be way out of form to not be able to get in to this team given the lack of small forwards.

With No WAFL, it's hard to go back and improve/find form in scrimmages. Unless you're Schoey/Jetta, it's hard stepping from Scrimmage to AFL level.

 

[RookiePick]

That kick on goal sums up Ah Chee as a player, does all the hard work then bungles it at the end.

Bungle. Dammit man, you have used the PERFECT word to describe it.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Watching the full replay (was working earlier, saw patches).

Aaron Hall really is a nothing player isn’t he?

He’ll probably last a decade at North, end up with 200+ games of * all, and then he’ll retire and nobody will remember him.

 

[Bender_]

Have a cry Jazny.

 

[Crankitup]

We’re sitting 3rd at the moment with 4 points on Geelong and 2 on Richmond. A loss from either locks us in. Theyre both playing 15th and 18th respectively though so I’d say we’re 95% 5th.

Adelaide is our best hope. They're in rare form currently. They'll be playing at home and trying to avoid their first ever wooden spoon. Richmond, having won 5 on the trot may be due a loss. They have to travel (which they don't do well) and will be without a key forward (Lynch) and ruck (Soldo).

He’ll probably last a decade at North, end up with 200+ games of fu** all, and then he’ll retire and nobody will remember him.

He did spend a large part of that last quarter standing at the interchange being told by myself that it was an appropriate end of his career....

Appreciate the Tom Cole Watch once again HoneyBadger35 . Bloody selfish North players giving away 50 to Ah Chee at the end there.

MrKK is spot on that the only recognizable North players are imports. Maybe Ziebell & Goldstein, but that is it.

 

[Wedgetailed Westerner]

Excuse me gais and girls

But all of you should be ashamed of your selves and fold your accounts.

The melting was no where near enough to be worthy of this board

It was a welcome change.

It’s mind blowing that this guy is a lock to play finals. Talk about passenger.

You won't see Adelaide do that with pick 1 on the line .

Adelaide aren't Melbourne or Carlton.

They've had a bad trot, but still a proud club. They will do everything they can to avoid their first ever wooden spoon.
