Game Day North v Carlton

[The Other Dean]

Wow, guys, don't all rush at the Game Day OP job at once.

No surprise there. This place has been like Kalaupapa the last few weeks. People falling apart left, right, and centre.

M'eh, I'm happy to take one for the team. (No Zondor.) Shinboners never say die, yada yada yada.

So on we fight.....

Cop that, Teague.

(You'll also note that Simpson was in no great hurry to come to his aid either. Looks like Dave may have lost the players already.)

Either way, I have a very good feeling about this game. North has been battling the blues for weeks now, so we should be well and truly primed for this.

North (and me) by 7 Valium.

We've been s**t but all of a sudden we have some VERY good ins. Between the 4 of them we add considerable midfield ability (and rotations), physical aggression, and marking power (as well as the structural benefit that comes from that). At least two of those ins are probably going to be a bit under done, so it almost definitely won't revolutionize the team, but it's 100% a step in the right direction.

Looking forward to a few things, even if I'm expecting a bad end result: Ben McKay (hopefully with a confidence boost after last week), Higgins potentially across half back again, Larkey charging up the lines demanding respect and freeing Brown a bit, Zurharr and Anderson crashing and bashing, and hopefully a much more physically exceptional LDU working in the guts with Simpkin.

Now I can’t watch the game live so will be watching on about 1 hour delay so I will not be on this thread.
Please no meltdowns, plenty of praise and no game day sackings.

Best ins we've had all year.

It'd be funny to beat Carlton given the smoke being blown up their arse and the rabble we've become.

Maybe we win,maybe we lose.

No injuries, be competitive, look like we have some sort of method about us.

God the bar is low.

Today our season turns around. Brown to kick 10, North by plenty.
We get through the "Olympiad of footy" with a 60% win rate, storming home to finish the season, like Australia on the medal tally, in ninth.

Less than 5 hours to game time - this is going well.

 

[Hojuman]

At least we know if Carlton win they'll lose next week.

Hope the " pride of Souf Orztraliaaa " can get up. That would give me a larf and time in the symphony fred

Bugger, we can’t get a game in decent conditions. I reckon playing under the roof has made us susceptible to less than ideal weather.

So look like we have a plan and hang tough in a game against Carlton?

Just clarifying.

Let me change my last line to really really low.

If as wet as predicted this will just be a slug fest. I reckon we are due for a big one but weather will slow the game down. North by 11 points for me. Please?

When they play each other, I keep praying for the stadium to get swallowed by the ground

If we win by 11 points does that mean we’ve kept Carlton scoreless for the whole game?
