Can't say the supporters mind. He's been having the 2nd best backman and bow he's in the 3rd and he's kicking arse

I’m just so used to the umpires screwing us that I expect it. We were worse than the umpires today though

Marvel stadium, roof shut, playing like an ice rink. Blokes slipping standing still.
Ordinary game that we're only winning because of North's mistakes.
They really are ordinary, but we aren't a whole lot better.

Blew it, pure & simple. Game was there for the taking in the 3rd qtr but countless skill errors, unforced, killed us. More I50’s but just chose the wrong option. With all due respect to Collingwood, they didn’t beat us, we did. I reckon they’re in for a few years of pain too.
We’ll get a few more back soon, wins will come.
Hopefully the club gets in touch with the umps during the week re 50m penalty clarification. Not so much on the 3 we gave away but on the blatant 3 that weren’t paid to us for entering the protected zone.

I tend to think there is more upside for North based on that result than Collingwood.

I agree. Anderson, Corr, Garner, Scott, McDonald, Polec, Dumont, Tarrant, Walker all to come back which will make a difference.

Boundary up misses the ball bouncing out of bounds and results in a Port goal.

With a ride like that this margin be lucky to stay under 100

Didn't see the game but it's nice to see that De Goey kick a bag as there was alot said in the media this week about him, especially by the dickhead Mark McClure saying he's lazy and the Magpies should let him go. I hate the fact that that dinosaur is still given airtime on AFL360 to voice his opinions on the game.
Would like to read the Magpies and Roos posters views about De Goey's game tonight?

Was left one out on a bloke with little defensive skills for too long. I thought they should have put Mackay on him sooner.
As for McClure, I love most of his opinions. Speaks his mind & doesn’t worry about offending people. Adds colour to the bland, politically correct media.
