Play Nice North Melbourne - 2018 and beyond

[Snake_Baker]

Yeah.

An "affilaited" junior club.

The Box Hill of the time.

 

[Dave]

Zero. This was back in a time before the rise of the snowflakes.

Half the Windy Hill crowd would be in the nick these days if you are under the impression that I was that much different.

Went to Windy Hill (and others) plenty back in the day. Never got into one fight let alone 6. Yet somehow it's not your fault but those mean old Essendon supporters.

Still there sunshine. And there at the start of the current competition, unlike your mob.

A mob so desperate to get in that they signed all their players over to us in the mistaken belief they could pull a swifty. Worked out swimmingly for them.

 

[threesixpio]

How many ended you up inside?

Social media has ruined everything including having fights at the footy





(Thank god)

I simply don't believe you. The Nicholson Street end of the ground was downright feral.

No. You weren't.

Believe what you like old son, it doesn't change reality.

 

[Dave]

No. You weren't.

Yep, we were. Founding member of the association.

That isn’t a list of the foundation clubs, but nice try. Don’t know why you’re so invested in disproving something that’s stated in black and white on the assocation page.

Loving the arguments about s**t from more than a hundred years ago.

I can smugly turn attention to the last fifty years and lean back in my armchair with a cigar and laugh and laugh and laugh

History didn’t start in 1961. Newbie.

Well, there wasn't much to talk about from a Hawthorn perspective mate.

In fact.........................nothing.

1902 (debatable) was last week.

Happy to be a relative newbie. In fact stoked. Better to discuss five recent glorious decades of success than talking about the good old days of footy during the Rum Rebellion

Begone from this thread two shades!

Rum rebellion. I did snort at that.

You'll never reach them on our enemy ladder. Not even close.

[Draft Pick]

Had 6 fights at the footy in my life.

5 were against essendon.

Getting onto a fight over a footy game. Lol

 

[Snake_Baker]

List depth is our achilles heel and it has become exposed for the 3rd year running.

Waite, Jacobs, Wood, Vickers - Willis, Garner & Hartung are all missing from our best 22.

I reckon we're only a 50/50 chance of making finals now. Still happy with the season regardless.

Yep, I'm happy with the direction the club is taking.

Younger players have to earn their spot and guys like Wood, EVW, Murphy, Anderson and Ahern have all shown that they belong at the highest level.

Amazing that North don’t make the top three

There wasn’t a tail on it at all. It was Carlton, daylight, Hawthorn, daylight, Collingwood, the end.
