Obviously my thoughts on Polec changed this year (No, not because we were showing interest). If he continues this year’s form for us I’ll be rapt. Whether we paid overs? Probably, but that’s the way it is now. We won’t know for 2-3 years if it was a good move.
Pittard’s a funny one. I’ve always rated his ability to take the game on, but gee he burns it a bit which in his position, results in it going straight back over his head for a goal... I’ll keep my powder dry for the time being.
Just don’t give me Neade.

Im trying to work out our ruck strategy, do we have a mature ruckman in mind for the draft or rookie? We have no kids ready to be back up yet. Only solution is to rely on Majak if Goldy goes down, a big risk now we have finally have him settled in defence.

North have done well so far. Missed out on Gaff but added Polec, Kent and now Tyson to the side.

Just need to work out a ruck plan going forward.

Lol, we’re investing over $10 million on Arden St on new change rooms to house all AFL, AFLW, VFL & VFLW teams, new sauna, coaches box & scoreboard enabling VFL/AFLW games to be played there.
The wider Arden precinct will see an influx of 40k residents and an abundance of commercial buildings over the next 10-20 years.
We are far better placed than a lot of other clubs - with the eventual cease of poker machines, other clubs relying on this revenue stream will struggle even more. Sorry to disappoint you but North aren’t going anywhere. ;)

Sorry i forgot my ;) at the end.

Hopefully some of the new 40k residents care enough to buy a membership and attend games!

I think HH3 is waiting to see if Phil McGuinness gets a contract.
