It also speaks more to putting value into EOY games.Bases last years form aswell, hence why we are lower than we should be.
Hawthorn started 4-4 last year, didn't deserve to diminish their FP standing.

Seems like memory doesn't serve you very well, but I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. What year was it that North had record (or near record) losses in the same finals series? I'll give you a hint, it was the year that Geelong won the GF by over 100 points.Why would I use 2010 as a sample size? We werent challenging.
Such a defeated response when you state youd rather lose a semi than have a chance of a shot at a flag in a prelim
Remind me how losing by 4 goals to West Coast in a prelim is getting destroyed? Or do you make it up as you go along to suit your agenda
I might buy that if the Bulldogs had beaten anyone of note but Freo Brisbane Carlton and St Kilda aren't exactly a group of world beaters.You aren't lower than you should be. You've beaten Hawks (good win), then Brisbane, GC, Essendon & Port.
Lost to GWS who are only just being rated well as of this round.
You need to beat more than one good team to be rated well.
Not sure if this is related to me or not, I have know problem with the Squiggle it's the Flagpole I just Can't understand.I know that it is upsetting to some that the Squiggle (all hail to thee) rates North, but there you go, an objective fact that is not based on biased opinion.
As for the partisan flogs on here, go harass Roby, he enjoys your shite.
Are you going to kick more than 7 goals this week? That would be a good startYay for Squiggle.
It has West Coast beating the Handbaggers in the GF and we havent even beaten this week yet.
I look forward to West Coast performing outside of Perth. Beating up on Brisbane, Fremantle and Collingwood isnt that impressive.
Heads up also, Adelaide wont finish bottom 6. Neither will Melbourne. Neither will Gold Coast or the Dogs.
Stop talking s**t.
If we don't, squiggle will punish us and I just can't have any of that.Are you going to kick more than 7 goals this week? That would be a good start
More round 1 "luck" against Adelaide. No mention of us not winning a round 1 match in 7 years or getting flogged by Adelaide in round 1 last year. This excuse is getting old.I'm sorry I went against the status quo being thrown around Arden street.
More to the point, I look forward to seeing how the kanga's go against Hawks at the G and Swans at the SCG.
They will be the real barometer.. and I have a feeling north will be shown up on both occasions (Yes just like we were).
You were lucky to face Adelaide in round 1.. First hit out is more to blow the cobwebs out. If you were to face Adelaide again, I'd have my money on the crows. Since then you've beaten up on poor teams, and picked off an injury riddled dogs. (That's of no fault of North's - You can only verse the teams put in front of you)
As the squiggle says, one thing it doesn't take into account is injuries. so had your mob pumped the dogs you would of shot up the graph. Instead, you got over the line in a scrappy game and shot down the graph in attack and only slightly improved in defense. To me though, this game was more of a snapshot of where north really are. Something that will be shown up in the second half, when your run does get difficult.
Sadly for you, I have a feeling North will go down as the doggies did in the late noughts.. Really really good, just unable to be good enough.
But that's subjective.. at the end of the day, we still killed your mobs finals campaign last year mate, and I can't wait to do it this year champ .
GWS just, then Geelong, then Adelaide.Trying to figure out who's made the most impressive improvement based on the squiggle. Has to be out of GWS, Adelaide and Geelong right? Or Richmond in the wrong direction.

It's official - North are going to be this years Freo on the squiggle thread.
Id be very surprised if five teams all end up with 16 wins. More will drop unexpected games

Stop trolling about things that occurred 10 years ago and * off out of the thread.Seems like memory doesn't serve you very well, but I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself.

Remember the 2 flags, 4 grand finals and 30+ finals the Swans have played since then? Sure, if we're going down that path.Remember when we beat you in a GF 20 years ago?
You are no chance at this year's flag then.
There's also a reason why no decent footy fan rates the Sydney/AFL flagsRemember the 2 flags, 4 grand finals and 30+ finals the Swans have played since then? Sure, if we're going down that path.
I already made my point and I put a facetious point in, since a few North supporters already have their tails up after beating mostly crap already this season.
Any team that loses to Carlton in pretty much s**t. In any case, while the roos are scraping over the line against injury hit and low confidence teams, the rest keep on going. There's a reason no one rates the roos.
Well when you see how hysterically they're responding, why wouldn't you?A lot of people seem to be attacking North in this thread.
