Rumour has it that Jesse White has walked out on North.

Fair effort by the Eagles for 3 quarters but dismantled in the third. Increased pressure by north resulted in skill errors going forward and the resultant turnovers often cost goals. Rowe by far our best. Looked like a game between the 6th and 7th ranked sides. Younger players are getting games into them which will be beneficial in years to come. Herbert looks likely and Dawkins did some useful defensive actions. D'Aloia continues to impress.

That's a shame if true.

Of course I am looking at it from a North supporter but I thought that in the first half it looked like the 6th side (Eagles) vs the 9th side (North), but I thought in the second half North certainly looked a finals side that could do some damage in the finals. The Eagles actually had quite a few more inside 50s and wasted a lot of chances early.

I think North are a better 5th placed side than us.

Campbell Combe suspended for 1 game, that's going to help Central!

And Aaron Young out with a hamstring injury.
North minus two Magarey Medallists for this week's game.
Plus Alex Spina out for 4 weeks with a quad injury.
North have had a wretched run with injury all year.
