| : ammmatt 4/05/2008 12:48 pm Yahoo! Profile: ammmatt Did this message offend you? Report abuse Harding has surprised me. Reply to this message just thought i start with a positive , Harding's returned and seems a better player after his blown knee. A truly fantastic effort. His run out of defence & strong marking are desperately needed. Big Drew ids going ok too. SAw where Laidley is upset with Pratt & his perchant for giving 50 mtr penalties away. I don't think its our biggest problem at least he gets the bloody ball. Am also still excited by Campbell & Thomas both have needed class & pace. Am much more concerned with Hale ( 4 touches) Harris who's struggling & even McIntosh who seems to be playing a loose mid field roll , far to many easy kicks for him & not really getting many hitouts. Wells well i hope WCE's didn't see that game last night cause i hope we swap him for Kerr at seasons end. His work rate is pathetic when the game is there to be won. He's the Fremantle of North Melbourne.lol our next 8 games are as follows........ WCE @ Carrara...... won Doggies @ Telstra ..... won Lions @ Gabba ..... lost Geelong @ Telstra .... lost Freo @ Subiaco ....... lost Hawthorn @ MCG ....... won Saints @ Carrara...... lost Port @ AAMi.??????? out of all those i wonder how many we'll win.??? you'd say 2 maybe 3 the way we're going. but its still a very positive season with the Club getting its self secure off field. GO Roos.!!!!! ****************** gees i haven't done to bad crystal balling these games for the roos , thought we'd win 2-3 , port next and there one side we've struggled to beat recently. |

| Well the win just proves that North are the real deal down one player (again).Bring on the Lions North by 18pts I know it is early but a top 4 for the taken | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I was home last night, so I actually got to listen to the call of the game over the net, it was nice to win a close one for a change, although I was pulling my hair out at the end. I think with the way we have played this year we are in a good position in the run to September hopefully the boys can step up and finish the year strongly. Another top 4 spot this year would be great. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ssno9 , don't mention the 'fire sale days' of pagan & bloody Miller. I'm almost finished in therapy and have been moving forward.:P ROFLMAO.... bloody brilliant!! |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| well red i'm in Vic and without foxtel i'd see 'em 4 times a year on tele. i can't understand why all games aren't replayed mid week on FTA late at night or something. surely it wouls rate well enough. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I'd like to comment on our year thus far but the only game I got to watch this year was against the Swans, and Channel 10 crashed about 15 minutes into the game.....I f%$*ing hate NSW country coverage of the greatest game of all. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ssno9 , don't mention the 'fire sale days' of pagan & bloody Miller. I'm almost finished in therapy and have been moving forward.:P | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Why would North trade Wells .Get off his case Snowy he is a team player he might have to step up and take the next step,but remember he still has 10-12 years of footy left in him.Looked what happened when North traded Mooney to the Cats ,now he would look good at CHF | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Wells is not going anywhere Snowy. Im sick of people trying to ship him off. Take a really good look at his career before you start making silly trade scenarios. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Brown at CHf is a great idea but you got the wrong initial. Should be J. J.Brown to North Hale to GC Wells anywhere we can get something okish Brown hold up CHF for 3/4 years while Tarrant develops. Draft picks for hale go towards a FF and Mid Dont think WC would do Kerr for Wells id orefer a Priddis but realistically more likely a Rosa. Anyhooo that gives us something now we are desperately missing and things to look forward to in the near future. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| would like to see L.Brown at chf big body can take a mark ,and with our fleet of smalls to crum to the ball it could be a move worth a punt | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Rand we all know North players aren't given the respect they deserve. Yes ya probably right leave Drew down back. But CHF is a real issue for us at the moment. Just need a stong body to force a contest as we have great crumbers imo | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Drew should not leave the backline. He is a very good CHB. He is a general for our defence and its a joke that he hasnt been selected for the Vics. How does Trent Croad get a game before him is beyond me. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| see rand we finally agree (only taken 2 years:P) Hale is a ruckman , have heard a few 'experts' say he's being destroyed if ya like playing at CHF. The Hale McIntosh ruck duo is a bloody good combibation , Thommo at FF. Leaves CHF vacant , i would like North to just bite the bullet and put Petrie there. I like u realise our backline has be decimated with injury..... Smith , Gibson , Sinclair have hardly set foot on the park. So until those 3 are up and running i suppose Drew is backline bound.Losing Edwards & even Tarrant so early is also hurting us. Maybe Hansen should play CHB?? yes i did hear Hale played a blinder against the Swans , wish i'd seen it. Although i did see the Edwards incident.!! He was taken out by a bloke who had no interest in contesting the ball , and Hall gets 6 for a love tap. Strange gig this AFl football. |

| hale played well against the Swans but was terrible last week. He should be our No 1 ruckman. Much better at the centre bounces than Hamish. Harris still has no tank even after all these years. Harding has been great. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| fair enough Rand , just that his last qtr was brilliant , but the game was over . I suppose it gets down to how you rate him.?? Is he a good ordinary player as J. Dyer wouyld say. Or is he/ or should he be a superstar taking the game by the scruff of the neck.??? He seems to me to always get 20-21 touches , 3-4 tackles , a smother and 1 shot on goal. Just wish he's push through to the next level. But what do you think of Hale , MacIntosh , Harris & Hardings season's to date.?? |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Wells is not going anywhere. Im guessing you havent watched Wells much in the last few weeks ammmatt. He is doing all the hard stuff, chasing, tackling, smothering. There were plenty of players who were worse than Wells on the weekend. Corey Jones was one of them. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| if anyone can do it ammmat the roos can.adelaide are a good side.for a team that has lost players due to retirements and many injuries they are doing very well and yes we were stiff to lose but we are doing ok.i am excited and can see a real future for some kids.we will get there and maybe terris 5 year plan doesnt sound that bad after all |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| yes scarpi its a huge challenge, after seeing the draw at the seasons start i thought North would need to be 6-1 or 5-2 to finish in the top 4 . I can't see that now happening , in fact we may miss the finals . Not that i'd be to worried if that was the case. Yes Pratt seems to get in trouble from Laidley quite often , when i'd say there are others that deserve a spray more than him. Suppose thats life though isn't it.? Considering we just played in Adelaide (sat night) and 5 of our next 8 are interstate you'd think the Afl could spread out our away games a bit better. Oh well , gees Tiges are doing ok though.Very stiff to lose. |

| thats a massive ask ammmat,3 games only in melbourne...aslo didnt your coach gve a blasting to pratt on air.he singled him out. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
