I found it funny last week when Rowey was telling Mick Malthouse he'd rather Carltons 3 losses than North Melbournes because Carlton lost to higher calibre teams. I dont think Rowey even knew who the Roos had played. Apparently Geelong, Collingwood and Sydney are no good :lol:

Should set them up nicely


I'd rate that more 99/1 in West Coast's favour. The Eagles won't be losing home matches to the likes of North in a few weeks time.

Hang on. You just lost to Carlton who had Kruezer, Waite (yeah what's new LOL) and Betts missing. Imagine letting Yarran getting a bag.

greenwood best in the twos again
his form has best good,hope to see him given some time soon
dont know what the go with anthony is,kind of spends most of the time between the 17th man and sub
i rate him with his run and carry and good spread
maybe needs more work on disposal but all in all think he has a huge future
we stand as one
we fight as one
we win and lose as one
we are one

Levi's distinct lack of pace and Liam's poor decision making and bad disposal are still holding them back.

good points,but i still go back to judds comments that when asked who is the best of the new breed of shut down players he highly rated greenwood
would not surprise to see him traded back to SA
HIS A PORT ADELAIDE MAGPIES GRADUATE BUT I KNOW THAT THE ROOS HAVE ASKED ABOUT MCKERNAN?
really like the look of black to take over from petrie down the track
good hands and feet and unlike hansen has second efforts
think if the writing was not already on the wall it will be soon for hansen

North also rarely tag or assign "run with" roles for players which works against Levi.
Correct about Hansen. He's behind Dish, Black, Tarrant, Daw and Goldy in the big man dept.
Never got close to his supposed top ten draft selection potential.

Where to now? Embarrassing once again today, surely Scott can't last to much longer.

How did they lose that, can't believe it.

Don't be silly.... North have been building for years and have got a good side together and with so many close losses this year, somethings gotta give soon surely.

Brad Scott's done a fantastic job at North. Not sure that you can sheet today's loss home to the coach.

Its a consistnet problem that they haven't fixed. I said he was an average coach and it is being proven with the previous few results. He doesn't know what to do when the game gets close at the end, earth to Brad throwing your hands in the air and making funny faces is not coaching.

Not much a coach can do with two minutes left. Two weeks in a row it's been a poor defensive effort from a single player in the final contest of the game that has cost them the win.

Its happened too often now for it to be predominantly a player problem.

Last year happened v Port at Footy Park.
