The other guy is a blonde from the Gold Coast so don't expect much from him

He’s from Tasmania.

 

[Topparoo]

Jack is from Tassie Nick is a Queenslander

 

[Themanbun]

I feel like I've shot Bambi a few times this year. And I love Harry. But he has been doing this all year defensively.

As for not shutting down the fat side, that's on our half forwards and wingers not working hard or smart enough.

Both.

Unfortunately you are right, too many times he's switched off.

 

[Topparoo]

Both.

Nick was recruited from the Southport Sharks he must have moved up there as a kid.

Playing like he's not a happy camper at times?

 

[marklovesbeer]

Was that you that got a shout out on the Shinboner's podcast the other week about Footy tipping, or someone has stolen your moniker ?

Ha. Yeah.
I’ve got tipper of the round a couple of times, but am off the pace a bit still.

 

[Groucho]

Nick was recruited from the Southport Sharks he must have moved up there as a kid.

He was on the front Bar last week and said his family moved from Tassie to the Gold Coast when he was 12

 

[DrZaius]

Caught the end of Nick and as usual he spoke well.
But Nick, as a boy from your old alma mater, please, please, " PLEASE " show us on Thu.night that the club and us as supporters matter. No-one expects us to win but a 4q effort and some sore Bulldogs will do. You'll have some great former champions around you before the game and if l heard correctly Pagan addressing you on the ground pre-game.

Just make us believe est.1869

We are going to get absolutely smacked and one of the main reasons is the players also don't expect to win.

Tough task with our outs, but just compete as hard as you can. The reality is Saints and Tigers got done by 70+ pts and Dogs are the #1 for points for, scores I50 and chain to score, so we need to bring pressure.

 

[King Corey]

If Dennis served up one of his almighty sprays, half the playing group would piss themselves before crouching into the foetal position crying for mum...

"The young midfielder is in doubt after experiencing convulsions due to a prolonged crying spell triggered by a particularly pointed address from club legend Pagan"

[tommy_uman]

Love Simmo and Horse on AFl 360. Hopefully someone can upload here

 

[Masked Avenger]

Can't help himself Ed.

Parading the myth he was an U19 play at North in the early 80's.

He never played a game.

 

[giantroo]

 

[FlyHigh18]

love this. how lucky are we to have so many North ppl in the media and the industry.

shame the three that made it into AFL house senior ranks didn't do shit for us.

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

NMFC in 2025 is every one of our forwards go for the same pack mark while two defenders stay down and walk the ball out of D50

 

[Samsquanch]

NMFC in 2025 is every one of our forwards go for the same pack mark while two defenders stay down and walk the ball out of D50

It's as if this is instilled in the way the team trains, like they have this drill they do every single session where every one of our forwards go for the same pack mark while leaving two defenders to stay down and walk the ball out of D50, except one the two defenders at training either lands a 14m pass onto the chest of the other while he's under the pump or the other barrels it to a pack on the wing where there's an opposition outnumber.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

In the middle of all that Simmo also said he will be there to say thank you and hopes lots of other north people do the same. He said it’s not just about players, it’s staff and everyone who makes up the club and has done that for decades.

Clarko good on Front Bar tonight as well.

 

[Gasometer]

The relentless ball movement in the 94 Preliminary cost us that game. A bit of recency bias in how the game is played today when compared to back then, but I dare you to go back and watch the last 3 minutes and the lack of nous to ice the clock. We just persevered with what we knew best and according to these Rules

It all worked out in the end

 

[JGreezy]

You'd think that these guys would know more than this...

Sheezel chases Amon but then hands him off to someone else and switches onto another hawk, so that North don't lose their forward line.
