Of course not.I get the sentiment but never say you hope for an injury. That's a human being in pain unable to do what they do for a living

Agree. Not sure about pick 3 as priority but they need something. It’s not fair a team being this bad for this long. Since free agency the draft just isn’t enough of an equalization method. Give them pick 11 and 19 and make them trade them for players. Do feel for them.Took the opportunity to check the game out with the rest of the family jetlagged and asleep ...already knew the score .
Certainly wasnt our best performance but I saw some really good signs
- this was a classic game we would have lost over the pasr 3 seasons .
- should have won by 80 plus but 48 is nothing to sneeze at . Also did nice restricting their scoring .
- we belted them, keeping in mind at seasons start most had them better than us .
- heard North really set themselves for this game so to snuff that out and dominate is another tick
- persist with DGB forward , looks dangerous and creates space .
I think we will beat Richmond next week .
I do feel for some North supporters they really have gone backwards again
BT and Darcy need to be packed off to the glue factory. Football has gone well past them.I know Kellie Underwoods commentary can improve although which commentator is great...
Have u listened to BT or Darcy these days...both have past there used by dates years ago.
Onto game...agree with others DGB needs to play as second fiddle if we want to beat others bar Norf and Weagles.
Then we trade them scrimshaw for 11….Agree. Not sure about pick 3 as priority but they need something. It’s not fair a team being this bad for this long.

No doubt they need help. The issue i see with giving them pick 11 & 19 they have to use to trade in players is who the hell would want to go there & what happens to those picks when they can't get a player to agree to join them.Agree.

They completely sabotaged their list to ensure they were terrible to give them a better chance of FA compo in the top 5. We cannot increase the incentive for self-sabotage by handing out additional picks for extended poor performance. GC has shown you can ave all the talent in the world but what makes a difference is culture, player development and coaching. Give them additional footy department cap space. Even fund it for all I care. but don't give out picks. They won't help in the short run anyway. Additional coaching and development resources can help from day 1. Picks take 3-7 years to benefit the side (in terms of wins).Agree. Not sure about pick 3 as priority but they need something. It’s not fair a team being this bad for this long.

Im totally against high priority picks . They have now had 3 drafts at it before this one . Plus Im tipping the Mckay compo will be far higher then his ability warrants.Agree.

You want the AFL to make more rules on the fly to suit these types of clubs. Why? We certainly wouldn't get any assistance I can assure you of that.Agree.

Yeah forgot about DB for a minute ......form of tankingYou want the AFL to make more rules on the fly to suit these types of clubs. Why? We certainly wouldn't get any assistance I can assure you of that.
Do you think anyone would give a s**t if we were last and self destructed to the point that North have?. And yet Hawthorn was being accused by a North supporting media nuffie that it was tanking. We have been rebuilding in the same period under the same conditions as them and have never once suggested anything about the difficulty of a rebuilding process.
I say, * them. They tell us they are a financially stable club and their supporters continually harp on about how great their talent is. How many more handouts do they need?
Has anyone tagged Psicosis into that fun thread yet.Eh watch them perk up at preseason.
North players magically get better the less games they play.
Still remember them talking about Charlie Comben with 0 games to his name like he's the second coming of Carey.
Yeah and I can also see this point of view also.You want the AFL to make more rules on the fly to suit these types of clubs. Why? We certainly wouldn't get any assistance I can assure you of that.

Darcy is inept.
BT is funny, but does get the player names wrong - was always going to be tough filling in shoes of Bruce and Dennis. Wheatleys is my fav caller at the moment- he needs to get the 7 jobBT and Darcy need to be packed off to the glue factory. Football has gone well past them.

Ok fine, I’ll do it.This time last year I did. Called him out for no showing after the bullshit he spewed all preseason.
Just feels sad to do it now... Was all fun and games last year - there was at least some hope on the horizon for North. Feels like they've gone backwards now.
Ok fine, I’ll do it.
Love him too- but I was hoping for a more consistent season from him.. he seems to have some great games but as a leader you’d like to see him step up more when the team is struggling- been quiet in a few of our losses this seasonLove Moorey but I think sometimes his decision making can be a bit lacking.
Don’t feel sorry for them, they don’t want our pityThis time last year I did. Called him out for no showing after the bullshit he spewed all preseason.

It's funny because when BT was only a radio caller (like 20+ years ago) I enjoyed his call. But now that I can see the game he is calling...eeerrgh its bad and getting worseBT is funny, but does get the player names wrong - was always going to be tough filling in shoes of Bruce and Dennis. Wheatleys is my fav caller at the moment- he needs to get the 7 job
Some of VFL callers are better than the current 7 crew...

Cmac31. Under the radar again.
If Finn does go to Daicos, we will need to make sure we protect him as he will be targeted.Going to be very interesting in two weeks time if he lines up on Nick Daicos.
