Thanks for asking - we’re okay with it, Logue is the least of our problems

No regrets on the 5 year deal then?

I'd be raging if it was Melbourne. But I guess you guys have more to rage about so fair enough.

What regrets would they have? Did you think Logue was going to get them to finals?


It's a 5 year deal for a reason, this is going to be a long build...

They got him for free with AFL compo, why would any north fan be upset with this deal

Coz if he sucks when hes 24 he's highly likely still going to suck when he's 29?

Handing out long term deals to bad players just cause you're in a rebuild isn't a valid reason.

He doesn't suck, north suck

Look how good he looked when there was some pressure on the ball in the first 2 rounds


No defender is going to look good in that north team right now

And I know he has been playing forward a bit to cover for injuries, that's not his natural position and again, it's hard to look good in a terrible team as a third tall

Zero issue with getting these players for free. Logue will be fine once our team improves.


Look how bad Barass is going at the Eagles. He also got a 5 year deal.

Posters get jumpy after 8 games of what could be over 100 games to come. Its more a reflection on jumpy posters than the players.

The sky was falling on the Luke Jackson trade after 5 games!!!

Wait are people actually turning on Logue already?

He is going to be a good solid player for north for the next 5 years, the least of their problems...
They have gone quiet on Jackson so need a new target. Bad posters are going to be bad.

Not much competition at the moment.

But playing him forward is such a waste. He has the potential to become a very good KPD, but he'll never be anything more than a defensive forward. North need to keep him in the backline.
Yes, it was a fleeting move borne out of necessity when we had three KPDs available and only one KPF. Agree that isn’t where we want him.

How fickle are the media
Acres and Logue big losses for freo in preseason after 9 rds acres can’t kick and Logue is fat!
Logue is a good team player and you have to fill the cap.
Nothing wrong with the deal
There’s a few bigger fish to fry at north

Griff will be a good defender. Maybe not a natural footballer but bloody athletic guy. Let him play to his strengths and don't throw him all over the field.
