Haha this is so good. The stat about Shaun flipping Atley being the only draftee still at the club to have played 100 games is staggering

 

[Wild Kelly]

We all knew it was a sh*t trade at the time, do you reckon Freo would want to walk it back and give up Logue and get McCluggage?

Most players the cockburners have traded in have had McCluggage.

 

[Truckosaurus]

Sydney so expensive they can't afford a full-size ground.

 

[The Dodger]

Haha this is so good. The stat about Shaun f*n Atley being the only draftee still at the club to have played 100 games is staggering

Haha yeah I didn't mention that in my earlier post about it but ultimately that is the thing that jumped out at me as well.

played over 100 games and was drafted in 2013, so the Atley stat becomes only mildly more damning when you consider BB only left last year.

Higgins played over 100 games for them but was drafted back in 'nam and then traded in.

That's enough Kangas research for me..

The McDonald bid was just Simmo and Rawlings alpha-dogging the Roos. Forced them to overpay for McSpuddled. Master-class.

Oooft.

It’s as if I wrote this....

With the exception of the Relocation stuff.

They should remove their AFL licence, offer a position in the VFL (or whatever they call it now) and set up a new club in Tasmania that doesn’t come with the baggage of ‘never forgetting’ the Vic team.

Assign the North Nuffies of this site to the role of Relics who cuts and pastes paragraphs about their ‘not dead!’ Club, like that Fitzroy bloke who has been doing it since I started posting here like the members of ‘Heaven’s Gate’ that were left on earth to maintain their website (it’s still up by the way - Heaven’s Gate - unchanged since 1997!).

Secure ex-Kangas star as Eagles coach. Bid on spud. Force Kangas hand. Pick up vanilla inside mid. Kicks winning goal in 2018 GF.

Sorry but I absolutely hate this. They're a small club and terrible at the moment, but for the last fifty years they've generally punched well above their weight. Like with the pokies they actually seem to care about their community much more than most teams. They basically invited Friday night football and had the league **** them over as soon as it became a success.

I don't think having a small club with heart is a bad thing for the league, and to call them a parasite is disgraceful.

 

[ep2018]

North a sneaky chance without Sloane. Adelaide weren't that impressive against GC last week and he played the game of his life.

 

[The Dodger]

Yeah dont think North have made any trades of good young players that have gone to bigger and better things. I think its the result of always "topping up" at the expense of development.
They were/are trying to be Hawthorn only 2 things remain different. 1. Hawthorn won something 2. Hawthorn can attract talent from other clubs.

North Melbourne are currently used as a negotiating tool by player managers aware of their "war chest TM"​

I can't argue with this.

Yes this has an element of kicking a club while they are on their knees, but this has been coming for a long time now.

Called it during the game, was a bad miss.

Can someone please make sense of this “sliding door”. I’ve read it 5 times plus, I really don’t know what he’s trying to insinuate.

Their stoppage structures are ****ed if Grundy can get 63 hit outs and Collingwood lose/break even in clearances

 

[Cuzz09]

I think just saying If you get 63 hitouts you shouldn't lose

 

[Bender_]

Oh boy, just saw Tom Browne live for the first time. Genuinely have walked away from that viewing dumber.

Interesting game tonight. Can't pick it at all. Hopefully both teams disappoint in some way.
