Do my reps play for North?

No, so don't mention them in this thread or you'll be told off.

Your reps have played the same amount of games for North as what Dixon has.

Thats Booney when you supply him with relevant comparative information based on past facts while speculating future performances with no knowledge of future game plans, preseason preparations and weather forecasts.

Right that explains it...... I'm guessing the sandy vag adds to the above and all makes sense now.

PS. Booney you are slightly better looking than I had imagined!

Actually, that was me when you used an example of a game from last year when you kicked 9 goals under the roof to debunk my theory on your forwards not being threatening. ;)

We'll those pesky opposition players that won the Premiership must've done something to try to stop them from kicking goals. Annoying isn't it.

NMFC def Adelaide.

Top 4 in disposals for NM were Cunnington, Ziebell, Gibson, Tarrant. (All still at the club).

Of the goalkickers, Harvey, Petrie and Dal Santo accounted for 6 of the 14. But, Garner, Higgins, Waite, Brown and Thomas all hit the scoreboard too.


NMFC def eventual Premiers WB

Waite, Brown, Ziebell, Higgins, Thomas account for 8 of the 9 goals. Petrie being the other.

Wells racked up the most disposals, but close behind was Thompson, Swallow (with 14 tackles as well), McMillan and Cunnington.



What I'm trying to point out is NM do have good players on the list. I think our guys relied more on the older players, to the detriment of team.

Brown and Waite are good leading targets.

Garner, Thomas and Higgins are great crumbing forwards.

Dal Santo was slower than my mum, and Petrie hasn't been his old self for a couple of seasons.

Spud was a good physical defender, but you can find a replacement for that.

Boomer was one of our greatest ever players, but he's old as shit. You have to move on before it bites you in the arse.

At least all the doom and gloom appears to be from supporters of other clubs. Us North supporters know what we lost, and what we still have, and as you can see by our comments, we're still optimistic.



You won two of your last 12 and have lost five senior players. Dress it up anyway you like, you're ******.

When was the last time you went 9-0 then dropped 10 of your last 12, then lost five senior players? You are screwed my friend.
