So yeah....

.....this is pretty normal and not in the slightest bit completely weird and creepy.....

Since Thomas has been dropped they don't get killed on the rebound anymore and the tall forwards have the space to apply their trade. They don't waste all their mental energy when Thomas isn't bringing the game into disrepute or playing 'spurt' football.
That's Wright said:
The commentators were saying Thomas’ name over and over when he came on, mistaken he was involved in the lead up to a goal. He just jogged through the area. 3 touches both weeks and a goal from the square. With North having all the play in the last quarters, Sam Newman could do that.
That's Wright said:
Brad Scott before surgery was a complete moron, with horrible selections weekly. He's improved and now realises how much Thomas torches the side with his stupidity.
That's Wright said:
The main thing someone as flawed as Lindsay Thomas needs is honesty. His character and football nous are both awful. Thomas remains the worst character I've ever seen play football. A total con artist of limited ability but high flair and acting ability
That's Wright said:
They've been playing the Thomas roulette for years. Since Thomas has been dropped, the team plays 3-4 quarters. When he plays a full game, the side plays in spurts. He's a liability. Selfish fraud.
That's Wright said:
Since they dropped Thomas, they've been building towards a proper team effort.
That's Wright said:
If Thomas plays, Swans win.
That's Wright said:
North steering towards a crash.
If Thomas starts next week, expect the 2 months of building to fall apart.
That's Wright said:
Shit.
Thomas for Petrie swings the game in Sydney's favour.
That's Wright said:
North need 2 more goals before Thomas comes on and costs it.
That's Wright said:
Credit to Scott for dropping Thomas the last 2 months.
That's Wright said:
Dreading when Thomas comes on and costs a season.
That's Wright said:
Thomas had been putrid when not faking injury. Heartless conman.
Detracts from everything North Melbourne and for some reason has a lot of people fooled.
As much as he's a cheat, fraud and liability, it seems those around him encourage this disgrace to football.
That's Wright said:
Confirmed that seagull Thomas playing against Sydney.
Swans under 40, the easiest money you'll make this season.
That's Wright said:
Might've flown up this week if Thomas wasn't playing.
That's Wright said:
North could win if Scott dropped Thomas for being a selfish cheat. The ebbs and flows of a Thomas with a point to prove effected game will see North fall short.
That's Wright said:
North are becoming more consistent.
Mostly due to Thomas not playing so often.
That's Wright said:
I think next year could get interesting.
Treading water until (among other things)...
Thomas VFL or delisted.
That's Wright said:
Was a great building win though. The type we have only when Thomas isn't playing.
That's Wright said:
Thomas simply can't play with his selfish attitude and terrible interstate record.
That's Wright said:
Thomas throws it all out of whack.
His possible couple of early cheap goals throw out the teams psyche and they give up eventually or become lost later in games.
That's Wright said:
First smart decision by Scott for a while. Thomas sub. Won't get booed off the ground now for cheating and kill the momentum.
That's Wright said:
Thomas has been lazy, disinterested and rubbish for months.
The new ducking rule has made him a total liability. Gets games on training form because there's so many bad kicks in the team.
That's Wright said:
Interesting Scott took the safe option with Finals hardened Turner and threw a lifeline to fake injury Thomas.
That's Wright said:
Thomas has only played 1 good quarter in a final, in his life.
Hope he doesn't get booed off the ground when ducking. Could get embarrassing and momentum sapping real quick.
That's Wright said:
North are less flaky with Thomas on the sidelines in recent times.
That's Wright said:
Why do you think Thomas has never been subbed or dropped until this year even when putrid. He holds them to ransom with his mind games. He's mentally weak and needs a fake injury or a homesickness to fool everyone into playing him in the 'Carey' position so he can get a few numbers up.
That's Wright said:
Has been turgid. He was dropped this week for being horrendous. The foot injury excuse is either a Thomas squib so he doesn't under perform in the VFL again or Brad not wanting to break the weak sod.
That's Wright said:
There's no LT in team. Selfish talented fraud. It's a team game and Thomas is unfortunately a suburban footballer that for some reason cons his way through the AFL. Unfit, stupid, full of it, whiny and cheats. Is embarrassing reading the deluded North posters rave about his 2 good games a year. This clown has never finished top 10 in a B &F but is apparently a gun.
That's Wright said:
Thomas is a disgrace to football. What a liability to culture and success.
That's Wright said:
Damn. Could've seen this coming as soon as Thomas ducked his head and missed. Momentum killer.
That's Wright said:
Shit. This ducking crap will fire up Freo. They were good while Thomas was on the bench.
That's Wright said:
Thomas - flaky, inconsistent, white flag, flashy, mediocre, hot and cold, excuses, whiny, over celebrates, delusional.

That's just from the last 3 weeks or so. And I only grabbed around half the Lindsay-related posts he'd written in that time. So you can basically double that amount.

Now extrapolate that volume over the 4 or 5 years that he's been funking up this website.

Even for a troll, that's so far beyond bizarre that it glides straight through 'disturbing obsession' territory and heads straight into the realm of 'absolutely freaking psychotic'.

You've gotta wonder, much like a responsible bartender refusing to serve a visibly inebriated patron, at what point do the main board Mods step in and say "for your own good, buddy, we're cutting you off".

Still trying to remember if I was the one that banned Spurkles from the North board. I hope so.

Even I think thats over the top. That said, he has got some valid points.

The flogs been at it for over 3 yrs, used to post on here as a different name and got banned from the North Board from memory. Here's an interaction between me and him from 2012, I used to think poorly of Thomas defensive pressure and then changed my mind when his work rate increased, heres what I got on my profile page in response (read in reverse as its from my profile).

Well he could have gone the whole on the racist garbage he put up with but kept much of it to himself; named a few names who dished it out and have cince recognised the wrongs they did (Garry Lyon/Dermie/Tony Shaw); compartmentalised it into this I what they did in that era.

Interesting. He was one of the dirtiest players I've seen going by suspension types. Pretty sure he went for biting, spitting, eye gouging, tripping/kicking and striking among others.
