It's weird we'd get Saturday 2:10 given it's the floating fixture.

It’s to give the two Cats and a Dog the time to get organised and make it over there I am thinking

 

[Marstermind]

Does it set the tone for next year? We always win round 23 then lose round 1 the year after. Like basically every time.

The last time North won the last game of one season, and then the first game of the next was in 2003/04. And we did both in style!

Round 22, 2003 - North Melbourne 28.19-187 d Carlton 9.9-63
Round 1, 2004 - North Melbourne 23.11-149 d Adelaide 10.14-74

Before that it was 1992/93. Schimma's last real game as coach, and Pagan's first.

[ferball]

You're probably further from the equator and that's what accounts for it.

Since I will be in Melbourne this weekend and without Foxtel, can I ask the bigfooty community,

where is the best place to watch North's game on Foxtel in West Melbourne or North Melbourne considering

that the basketball is on at Marvel at the same time.

I’d feel much more confident if Melbourne hadn’t gone and broken our streak against them last year. I suspect they’ll be putting a fair degree of effort into building on that.

If you want to head a bit further to Brunswick, the Vic Hotel will have large screen with sound & other TV’s for different games / sports.

How is the Vic Hotel? I've walked past a few times, but usually go to the Grand View Hotel nearby because it's a bit closer to home. Always thought about heading in.

Bummer. The previous owner Mick, who was a North man through and through, used to always advertise that North games would be shown live in the public bar.

Three Crowns - cnr Victoria and Errol.

Things have changed there.

I was flabbergasted to hear they turned off the Friday night hawks game to put the ashes on.

Wtf?

 

[blackshadow]

Wtf?

Was told that by a couple of (formerly) staunch 3 Crowns regulars on Saturday.
Certain staff have left and the North focus isn't the same.

 

[giantroo]

North Melbourne has recalled forward Mason Wood for its final round clash against Melbourne on Saturday.

Wood was named in the Roos’ 22, presented by The Wharf Hotel, for the trip to Tasmania and the club’s home away from home at Blundstone Arena.

The North number 32 comes in at the expense of Jed Anderson, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Tom Campbell, Lachlan Hosie, Tom Murphy and Ben McKay will be waiting in the wings as emergencies.

The Roos’ squad will train at Blundstone Arena on Friday at 1.30pm, with fans welcome to attend the session.

 

[Sillygit]

Well, thats a bit of a narrative changer

 

[giantroo]

 

[Clarke is King]

What happened to Hosie in?

 

[andana]

Preuss at FF!

 

[billnats]

Don’t get how Hosie doesn’t play. Dead rubber. Just kicked 6. Absolutely mystified
