Oversaturation and too many average players in the comp. I am same with cricket since the introduction of 20-20 cricket. Too much of a good thing.
I reckon GWS and GCS were 20 years too early

Cricket is a shocker. The last time I gave a s**t re ODI was 2000 World Cup in UK and Test would be 2005 Series..since then crickets
That is a great line and I think I know exactly how you feel.
Then again, I'm in my mid 40s - everything today is lame compared to 20 years ago. Whereas, 20 years ago anything 20 years old or more was lame.
Nowhere near as much as I used to. I'd watch every game on TV, go to 2 or 3 games a weekend and the performance of NMFC would directly effect my mood. Now, I can be hardly bothered watching it on TV, I only go to NMFC games plus many one other every month and I can shrug off losses by the time I've got back to my car although I still enjoy the wins.

Considering I’m still feeling pissed off today, too emotionally invested. I’m angry at myself for starting to trust them. That was dead set weak as piss yesterday.
That 10 metre kick stuff is crap to watch, Hawthorn did it for years until the umps started calling them on it. Geelong did it all day yesterday.Don’t be. That ground shape is a congested mess that suits their current game plan. Thank god the GF isn’t played there.
FWIW I am liking Snakes longer kick rule change

It’s not going to work in finals, they simply don’t have the foot skills and composure against decent pressure sides to maintain it.They play an awful brand no doubt.
I concur with 94 and 98 sentiment. I would also add the 2015 Prelim as well. I can't ever remember being so irrate in my own home. The lack of acknowledgment of how badly we were screwed over by the media throughout the following week s**t me even more. Their were no repercussions for anyone involved in that debacle.After a game it’s pretty much 30 minutes of annoyance if we lose.
I then dread running into mates who we lost to the next week and that probably goes back to the Primary School yard of the 70’s when losing was met with humiliation.
Losing that 94 Prelim and 98 has kept perspective. That is losing on an epic scale, so whilst losing H&A are annoying, they can’t impact me like those two games ever will
Some wins are better than others...the Swans and Freo games were great...but the Lions win was meh.
I always wear at least one item of North clothing.Up until about 6 years ago I didn’t like wearing anything North Melbourne dont know why even to a point telling my wife don’t buy.
She ignored me like all good women and now I have so many north tops and shorts and hats that I generally wear something North every day,
I love the fact that I can have someone look at your North gear and them think about North.
Grow the brand

It will be interesting to see how they go against the Tigers next Sunday at the MCG. A very different ground and if Dusty is back they may not fare quite so well.
I reckon we can beat them on the MCG if we make the finals and play them and especially if we have Jed and Waitey back. Of course they have some good players out injured too, but yesterday if those 2 had been out there, the story might have been different.
Oh sorry. Off topic.
I take no interest in football really.
I hate that a bunch of 20 somethings (plus the odd 30 something ) running around an oval and winning or losing a game can actually affect my mood for a couple of hours So annoying!
I'm hanging my hat on this explanation as well. We had a one hour three-way melt (my two sons & I) in our house for about an hour after the game. We each retreated to our various bedroom with my wife, for the umpteenth time, threatening to ban North games in our house. I'm, now, coming round to liking a lot about how the team went about things yesterday - in hindsight. We played that game with everything in the Cats favour - ground, playing away, missing Waite and Anderson, 3 guys with, all up, 10 games between them. On top of all that, we were a bit flat and Browne didn't get a look in. However, 10 minutes into the last, I genuinely thought we could pinch it. Then, that stupid great goal by somebody I'd never heard of - who definitely must take out the Kerridge this week. After that, the wheels came off, as we tired. If we drop our bundle after the bye (ala 2016, I will be livid, no doubt. However, I feel much more confident now than I did back then. This week, the whole club was down and it showed. Now, we have to respond....Don’t be. That ground shape is a congested mess that suits their current game plan. Thank god the GF isn’t played there.
