in hindsight though better off picking kids from last years draft then having to delist the likes of raines at end of the season and picking from an even shallower draft this year.

The fact we got pick 44 in return shows we make the right decision. Wait an extra year and we may have delisted him for nothing in return just as we've done with others in the past holding onto them too long until their trade value is zero. Hopefully we are able to trade again for more picks this year.

yeah we done great with that trade his nothing but a dud.
Im just saying for them in hindsight they would be kicking them selfs.
It feels good to finally have a successful trade period hopefully we repeat it again this year.

All I want to see is the era of trading away picks for duds being over. I think it is. For once I want to see us consistently win at the draft table.

The umps are sure looking after the Pies tonight. The Lions had all the momentum in the 2nd quarter and 3 umpiring decisions in favour of the Pies within a minute kill if off. I like to know how the Pies got a free and 50m when Harry O shoved his forearm in Brown's face on the fence.

The Crows are level with the Saints as well. Interesting to see how we go next week against St Kilda with them struggling to score freely without Reiwoldt. They've definitely owned us since 2003  :P.

Hard to see anyone getting near Geelong again. Saints can't win it without cry baby and the Dogs last night looked slow and a shadow of their usual selves making basic skill errors by foot.

Add the Pies to that list. Doesn't matter how the media pump them up on the evidence of tonight they are the best second placed team in history. Geelong the favourites have their measure and the Saints have their measure too. Another loss by the Pies. Could not happen to a nicer side.  :ROTFL

Add late in the game Thomas had the ball out of bounds in front of the ump but the call was play on. Despite the help they get they just can't win. Suffer. Brisbane snap a five game losing streak. :thumbsup

It's upto Freo to beat the Roos tomorrow to draw level with the Cats on the ladder.

Especially as they led for most of the match. Col E Wobbles is alive and well. The last two weeks are tantamount proof of this. :lol

50 years of Col E Wobbles  :lol

They've got the Dogs on the rebound next week at Etihad too. I'd laugh my head off if the Pies get done again.

52 years and counting. Mick is ensuring that the premiership that is eluding him will elude Bucks also and if anything Mick would hate to see Bucks benefit from his hard work so he'll ensure "older" blokes like Presti, O'Bree, Lockyer, Davis, Johnson, Fraser will become the responsibility of Bucks and his coaching staff and not Mick. If anything Mick had to rebuild the team when he took over in 2000 all he is doing is ensuring Bucks starts from the same footing as he did. Mick as coaching advisor after that can only sit back and get paid whilst he does nothing and watches Bucks learn to swim. The master is always smarter than the protege.  :lol :rollin :lol

The Kangaroos are terrible.

No wonder everyone they chased turned down their coaching job.

They've got a lot of players in the side that are cancerous. Wells, Pratt, Firritto, Hale, Thomas...

They keep persisting with Hale as full forward, I say pee him off and try Tarrant (if fit) or Aaron Black.

They have no flair, their games are awful to watch.

They need a big clean out and to force Harvey into retirement.

Yep North have the same old core of 25+ year olds yet they are still bottom 4. Eight of them played on Sunday. Hard to see any of them still be around when North could be any good again except possibly the ruckman McIntosh.

32: Harvey
29: Jones, Harding
28: Rawlings
27: Petrie, Pratt, Firrito
26: Edwards, Hale
25: McIntosh, Wells

North may get a few more cheap wins than us in the next two years relying on these older players who will take them nowhere. However, we are already doing the hard yards playing virtually a 23 y.o. and under side every week and getting games into our cubs across the park.

That core is terrible. Harvey good, but fading. Jones and Harding in and out of the team, i'm sorry, but if you're 26+ years old and are not a regular, you're no use anymore. The only real quality there is Petrie and McIntosh. Wells always disappoints. The rest are VFL quality.

The pies match (How sweet was that) topped off a great weekend.

Got this txt from a Nth mate - You guys may now him, ran onto Princess park with a spoon some years back.

Harding couldn't hit a target if it was his last r00t on earth. Hale wouldn't know how to mark the ball let alone kick the Freakkin thing and as for thatg midget Campbell the less said the better. Nth spirit gone, 3 hidings in 3 weeks! not happy Jan.

Well I know I am - Those roo boys have been giving me some stick over the years and it will soon be coming back in spades.  ;D

Shame the Tankers got up in an awful game .....

Petrie injured again and Wells is becoming injury-prone as well doesn't help either. Agree wayne that core is shocking and North need a major cleanout. The problem is Scott came in saying North didn't need to rebuild or bottom out. I think Scott is learning the hard way how far away his list is.

Add to that that off-field poor crowds and falling membership after that one-year sympathy spike and North's future is looking crook.

Almost gave up a 44 point lead in the third quarter to beat Brissy by a point after Brissy stormed to the lead with less than 3 minutes to play. Was hoping they'd lose as that would have broken any of that mythical Sh1tboner spirit they talk so famously about. Then to see them sing their song like they had won the flag just proves to me why they are characterless and pathetic.

From the other side I guess Voss' gamble on recycled players is really biting him on the bum.
