Jesus Christ. We've won about 5 more games than them over 4 years. Why did we have to help ourselves yet they get gifted a few more gun kids destined to be dramatically underdeveloped?

I'd rather it that way.

including this season.

It depends where it is. One next to their first rounder is bullshit. One at the end of the first round, I'll be okay with.

im cynical - it'd be before the first round. They will be applying the Victorian discretion rule

This image perfectly sums up the game last night.

Buddy needs to go to GWS, it will be good for the game overall.

It will **** up GWS's salary cap, and even though it's so large, heaps of their players, good ones, will leave for a higher pay check elsewhere. This is good for the traditional clubs. It will **** up Hawthorn's forward line, making them more beatable, etc. He is a good marketing tool and can help grow the game in WS...

I'm sure there are more positives.

Puts a foot on NRL's throat.

Freo are really targetting Harvey here!

I love how much it is raining, turns it into good old fashioned footy!

 

[power09]

Fremantle are going to castrate them,
great viewing

 

[BornPort]

Not a great game but watching North lose is its own reward.

 

[raman]

can't believe how much The Hobart Travesty has made me hate North this year

definitely castrating Harvey

 

[DonDraper]

North lol

 

[Stromageddon]

I just feel like bumping all of the Ben Jacobs threads and posts such as Pooort are shit will win the spoon, Norf future premiers, Port have a shit coach etc

 

[Portmanteau]

Brisbane getting reamed by the umps. No surprises there.

 

[power09]

Suck shit Harvey, your goal pal

 

[Stromageddon]

Harvey, so undisciplined. ****ing norf.

 

[power09]

I love Swallow though, what a star, should have more fame than Cotchin

 

[FallingLiefs]

I love Swallow though, what a star, should have more fame than Cotchin

points for effort, not so much for execution with him

 

[Stromageddon]

Anyone know how Salopek has been going?

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Freo's percentage from today's game is 231%.

Melbourne have kicked 115 goals and Freo have conceded 114 after both have played 12 games.

The way the Ross Lyon python defence is going, they are going to have the highest pecentage at the end of the season, despite the Hawks probably kicking 100 goals and 600-700 more points than Freo.

 

[bomberclifford]

It's nice watching North Melbourne fail.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Anyone know how Salopek has been going?

Who?

 

[Janey]

That, and the attitude of some on their board after the game and over the Ben Jacobs saga. I was always indifferent to North but now I find myself barracking against them every week.

Playing VAFA with his brother, I think I remember him tweeting something about doing a real estate course too.

I think he is now working in the real estate industry and sounds pretty happy to have a normal job and spend more time with family. Good to hear.
