Preview Changes v WCE, Sunday 8 June, 320pm, Bunbury WA game (AFL+VFL bye week beforehand)

[EdCurnowRules]

Many Vics flying to perth for for this one? It should be a good game, both sides are showing a bit without many W’s

 

[Disco Dew]

It’s a sign!
Kangas by plenty!

 

[shinboner magic]

Aside from the sooky La las crying in the Bye piss take thread, last weekend was nice not having to get frustrated about the shitness of our performance

Imagine feeling that every week?

Ahh for a consistent winning culture

Yes I remember a time when I looked forward to the weekend as there was a game of football to watch.

Now not so much

Yep, flying over Saturday morning and then renting an RV for 5 days and touring the SW with the family. We'll stay in Freo for the last 3 nights and go up to Perth to watch the Saturday game v Freo.

For me these days is the lack of free to air tv for the AFL.

Due to working away from home during the week (home on Friday afternoon & away again sometime Sunday afternoon), about the only day I know I can sit and watch a game is on Saturday, and guess what, the AFL has made them all pay per view. So these days Im either watching an NRL game on the Saturday, or catching up with the wife; she seems nice!

I hope the weather hangs in there for you

Looking forward to seeing all the WA Roos on the telecast making some noise!!

Some great WA players have played for North, including my favourites growing up, Roscoe Glendinning and the Krakouer brothers.

And let’s not forget one of Busselton’s favourite sons, Phil Kelly!!

 

[Too_many_talls]

Desperate for a win here, but, if I'm honest, I am dreading this game a little. There is not a lot of upside unless we win this by 5+ goals.

 

[kool kangas]

We need to win this by 4+ goals otherwise while its a win it wont mean much..

 

[Its a Process]

Must Win. Much like the Tigers game we simply must win.

Off a 13 day break and up against a struggling WCE without McGovern, Yeo and Waterman - our mids and forwards should be licking their lips at the prospect.

North by 40 for a rare comfortable win is my prediction and I don't want to even contemplate a loss and the pile on having sold this game to Western Australia......

 

[Blightys Barrel]

How has Griffin Logue lacked match fitness for the entire 2.5 years he's been on our list?

Souvlaki Diet - 3 a day

 

[Mr north man]

Let’s just give Ford a crack at a defensive role in the 2 WA games until Archer is fit to return against Carlton.

Simply Drop Corr. I just get the worst PTSD about how many arsey goals they’ll get based on some woeful defending.

We’ve simply reached the point where we can’t play Corr and McDonald in the same team any longer, let alone the same backline.

We are blessed touch wood to have 95% of our list available for selection.

McDonald and Corr are going nowhere unless injured

 

[Blightys Barrel]

Liam Ryan in doubt for the game

Big X is happy about this. Not sure that he is up for another chase down.

 

[The Nostradamus]

McDonald and Corr are going nowhere unless injured

Corr has been dropped before

 

[speedy]

Is this sarcasm?

Yes, the lowest form of witt.

We need to win this by 4+ goals otherwise while its a win it wont mean much.

Winning is the only things that matters, it's the only way to build confidence, self-belief and a winning culture. So let's start doing that first before we put caveats on how much we should be winning by.

 

[speedy]

The senior boys should lobby for the week off to make the most of the wa weather. Why waste a plane trip?

You know just for recreations sake to pass the time away. Lots of fun and heaps of fun even.

 

[Whippet1]

Start finding ways to win games first then work on how pretty it looks. An ugly win by 14 pts would be fine by me. It tells you that while you win you still have plenty of work to do. Kind of how you should feel after a loss.

 

[bennymate]

We'll win

 

[Liam Boy]

[danj]

Yes, the lowest form of witt.

Wit, surely? Ah but am I being facetious or sarcastic

 

[Hop_lessly Devoted]

I'd love to sit back and watch us roll WCE by 50+ points but ha, I know, 'tell her she's dreaming'.
This is the sort of game that will infuriate, but the resident Pollyanna in me still thinks we'll win, and win ugly.
At this point I don't really care about beautiful wins. Just wins, full stop.

Not sure we should throw someone new into the backline mix who has no idea what their role is yet for this one game.
But maybe he'd come in and look seamless back there. I really don't know anymore.

 

[Frank Thring]

This game will tell us a lot of where we are at. A loss or a scratchy win won't cut it, this has to be a convincing win. More shots at goal, more inside 50's along with a 30plus win.

 

[TheKanga]

Think we win
Could see us winning by 10 goals if switched on.

Or more of a limp over the win by 7pts or something if come back from the bye poorly.
