If he champion doesn’t play I hope he puts on a training top and bounces a ball as he does slow laps of the ground and waves to the North Melbourne supporter (singular).

Of course we were going to go for it if he wanted to come home. We also compensated North well in that trade. Given he was contracted, if North wanted to keep him all they needed to do was have a backbone and say no. North fans getting pissy with Port over the trade is pointless.

Oh yeah, that's right, yeah, mmmm..... I've heard that money makes you grow up faster. Turns a 19 year old into a 30 year old. That's what you are saying isn't it? Or is it just sour grapes at a young lad making a shitload more money that you will ever have? Or just being massively offended because he left your little club? All of the above, I'd say.

North fans had the right to be annoyed but they have been unhinged about JHF. Haha. Even now we’ll get the ‘he’s not gonna play us in Melbourne because he’s scared’ calls…….no one’s scared of North guys, you have been tarp level Port for close to a decade.

I think that might be saying something about the standards at your club when a young guys sees an issue in attitude at Arden St.
It must be hard being a Norf supporter. Club has performed badly for a long time. Small membership. Can’t retain players. Can’t build a list.
Imagine having all the advantages of a Victorian club, but knowing it’s unlikely you will win a flag in your lifetime, ever.
They should really merge with a club like the Saints. They’d have Collingwood numbers of membership, could do a Brisbane/Fitzroy superteam. And they could actually give their members a chance to feel good.

Most of the angst about Houston has been directed at the trade, not the player.
Whereas North supporters have thrown the rattle, dummy and comforter out of the cot at JHF. Led by the massive sooking of David King who can't let it go.
No comparison and I don't know why a North supporter would come here to tell us he doesn't like JHF.

Yes you would think grown mature people would have got past this vendetta long ago.Most of the angst about Houston has been directed at the trade, not the player.

The only explanation I can come up with is the ones that come on here are a bunch of kids or have some mental deficiency.

Don't give them ideas. They might start to think.

How many years did JHF have to go on his contract at Norf? One?
Their captain, Jy Simkin, asked to be traded with a year on his contract. But these Norf supporting numpties zero in on a 19 year old rookie with no attachment to Norf other than he was unlucky enough to be drafted to this basket case.

Hope so.
Good that will leave an opportunity for the coach of the century in Ken Hinkley, club and coach would be well suited, losers to the core.

North/Saints merger would be good.
Then the North supporters can have another tantrum when Nasiah comes back.
Feeling pitied and constantly reminding everyone of it is what drives this mega-club.
They can't keep the engines sputtering on the fumes of JHF angst forever, can they?
There's big Vic clubs and small Vic clubs. Saints managed to carve themselves a small niche as the party club, Bulldogs have done a decent job painting themselves as Western Melbourne, which given most of the new suburbs there the last 30 years are West of the city wasn't a bad move. Melbourne have enough high end of town to limp along. North is centered on a shitty geographical area and no unique selling point. They failed to leverage their success under Pagan/Carey into a lot of new supporters, so they are stuck in a downwards spiral.
Who outside someone raised in a North family is going to support them? If you're an immigrant, unless you've a thing for basket cases, they offer nothing the other clubs don't do better, whether you're wanting to follow a 'battler' club like Bulldogs, high end of town like Melbourne or Essendon, or just the biggest 'safe' choices, like Collingwood or Richmond. They've been the obvious one to go, since the AFL tried to push them to Qld almost 30 years ago. The big Vic clubs keeping them alive, to keep their majority numbers is all they have now and all they ever will have. Some sort of economic crunch that dents AFL revenue will see them gone. Until then it doesn't matter who they draft or whose the coach, they aren't getting a flag, or even reviving to a Koch type 'stability'.
Yeah outside the Vic club majority thing and perhaps the AFL having a much needed Marvel tenant, they literally serve no structural, cultural or financial purpose.
If you were rationally constructing a national (not Vic based) competition from scratch right now, their application wouldn’t even reach the ‘come in for a presentation’ stage. I have no problems with North fans wanting to obviously stay at the highest level, but the AFL ‘should’ be able to make the tough decisions, like cutting North. If it wasn’t a Vic love in, the entry of Tassie would be an obvious point for the first year without North so it remains 18 teams.
