That's kind of my point. North fans have pretty quickly reached for excuses, instead of turning the heat on their substandard performances.

Spin that any way you like.

I'm just making the point that it isn't purely injuries that have caused them to lose this many. More that they just made the most of an excellent draw to start the season but we're always a 4-8 type team. If they were fit they may be 4th or something but they wouldn't be top

Take 7-8 of the crows best 22 out, - no make it only 5-6, then see how you go.
If it's the bottom 5-6 it would have almost no effect.
Maybe depth is your issue as well as a lack of pace?
I'll trust stats from respected sources over your opinion
But Higgins, Wells, Waite & Wood aren't in our bottom 5-6.
Once again, thanks for proving my point.

As REB duly notes it's who not how many but not being able to replace the outside run has hurt. Has it hurt enough to create the slide you've gone down?

Not dissimilar to Uk fan with port crowds, is your infatuation with Brayshaw.
Like a jilted lover
