North v Dogs, Easter Friday - Rd 4, 2017

[Dry Rot]

Didn't see an existing thread.

Expecting a tight contest. Both teams with a bit to prove.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Dogs by plenty

We need another loss to force brad to stop playing the old plodders like Gibson, Swallow and Thompson

 

[basashi]

looking forward to it. Hopefully 2 or 3 games on the friday next year!

 

[Dry Rot]

Any late changes?

 

[Bluelegs]

Its good to finally see a year without a 16 page discussion about the lack of football on Good Friday.

 

[Harris Specter]

Great effort from all the North players to donate $10,000 towards the appeal. Respect!

 

[Demonic Ascent]

I'm expecting north to make a fist of it. They haven't been too bad this year and will fire up in front of the bigger crowd. Dogs on the rebound should be too good but would expect North to cover the line

 

[Adz]

Why such an early start time.

 

[funk44]

Got a feeling that North might get over the line in this one

 

[Bluelegs]

Why such an early start time.

I expect that channel 7 want the Good Friday appeal to be getting as many viewers as possible around primetime.

 

[ep2018]

looking forward to it. Hopefully 2 or 3 games on the friday next year!

Get rid of the Thursday night pre-Easter game. 2 games on Good friday, 3 on Sat, 3 on Easter Sunday, Geelong/Hawks on Easter monday.

Have North vs Dogs the marquee GF game at Etihad, with two non Vic teams rotating the second GF game later on during the night.

Dogs by the length of the Flemington straight.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

And that's why we're doing this.

Dig deep.

Whats with the spam advertising for a Victorian hospital? How about it's got nothing to do with football. I don't care that it's a Victorian thing, football isn't beholden to Victorian interests

Because thats the charity that they're supporting?

You do realise that the Childrens Hospital is the one that every hospital around the country will fly kids off to for specialty treatment right?

I've got a number of friends who have spent time in Melbourne because their kids have needed to be taken care of there.

Pull your head in.

Over the top.

 

[Testekill]

Why such an early start time.

I assume the AFL and Channel 7 don't want to step on the toes of the Good Friday Appeal

Don't cut yourself on that edge

This reads as sarcasm, but if not what a dickhead you are.

They don't televise the appeal nationwide.

 

[Drewie11]

Let's hope it's an absolute cracker with a big crowd. It needs to be a success so it can continue

 

[Adz]

Why would they make it a North home game? They have 25k members.

 

[Bluelegs]

Did north re-record their song? Sounded terrible on the broadcast.

 

[schmuttt]

Nice vision of Stringer giving a high 5 to every single kid as he ran out.

 

[dmc333]

wow Thomas 200 games. Never would have guessed.
