Highly doubt we'll catch the Dawks now.

Hopefully next year but we'll need to make finals and when we're successful and have sustained success then we'll most likely be a serious threat to the pies.   :thumbsup
The club that keeps giving.

Outselling St Poopoo

It's Nought spelt in the way meaning zero.
Zero fans, zero finance zero character zero money zero permanent home zero respect zero spine zero everything.
Norf is still very acceptable and still means the above.

We may catch West Coast given they cap their memberships due to the capacity of Pattersons Stadium.

For all those reason that people put out and ridicule north ,I admire them.For close onto 30 years they have not only continuously put out a competitive football team ,but along the way have won a few premierships too.They are a club we should all admire,great character despite it all

They should also have respect for themselves their plight and their existence not making out they are better than others given the above.
Whilst premierships are what count and they have us there only in the 90's might I add because in the 80's we still won more they as a club stand for nothing and as a result given they had Carey in their golden era it means squat now because it does not correlate into fans and memberships.
Nought equals zero nothing niente tipota zilch and I have no respect for clubs like them and their ilk.
Let them rot and fail they are a minnow and always will be. If we are crap for 30 odd years and can still get close to 60K members double their paltry tally then they are not in the same league as us as far as I am concerned and any animosity they have for us is borne out of jealousy from our character finances success albeit long ago and our large but still even larger dormant supporter base.
F off Nought.
Losses like what they got last night make me warm and fuzzy inside.

Tucker don't you think we can learn a few things from them.They are a club who have enormous spirit.How many times have they been almost down and out and yet bounce back.that says a lot to me.They have been kicked around like an empty tin can yet when on the park they give their all.Can the same be said about us especially looking back 20-30 years

Giggsy they are a mid table side at best who spruik their plight to generate sympathy support so even if you don't support them they can be adopted as a second side.
Shinboner means nothing it's just a mythical thing that gives Nought something like Colliwobbles something unique and albeit pathetic.
Whilst spirit can get you so far on a journey its class cash and downright hard nosed bluntness that does and Nought falls short in all three areas.
Yes there were times under Spud and Walla$$ where I wish we showed more spirit and toughness but I am positive if we play 10 finals in the space of a few years we won't win 1 and have an average losing margin of 82 points either.
Shinboner spirit my hairy Greek ar$e.
Looking for a new home every so often and alienate those that actually support them to gain a lesser handful of fans somewhere else no. Self pity and receiving funding from the governing body every so often to keep them afloat or reducing debt through membership FTF and a large supporter base who are craving for success. In so many words Giggsy they have done a few things okay but the blueprint for success is certainly not coming from Arden St as overall they are just as I said a mid table club at best so to answer your question Giggsy no we can't learn from them we can do it our way and prosper and be a premiership success and that says a lot more about the fabric of our club than the torn tattered patchy fabric that is theirs. :thumbsup

Sheesh Tucker, I'd hate to see your take on the Demons, Bulldogs or the Saints then - pretty much North with the Flags.
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

F nought
I totally agree with tucker although I do understand your point of view gigantor
Nought are a side with a proverbial chip on their shoulder, they take pride in kicking a side when they are down and they provide milestone games for their side in an attempt to inspire their players to victory.
Another observation would see this lowly club take pride in destroying the hopes of opposition fans rather than nought playing to win they play in aspiteful manor eg: last years encounter agaist RFC their banner read " lets destroy the hopes of them playing finals etc" or words to that effect.

 I said they take pride in being that pain in the arse that wont go away, that club that always bobs up to beat a team and throw a spanner in the works and everyone goes woww! Then they go back to nothingness for weeks at a time.

They took pride in seeing us finish outside the 8, due to their soft draw.... no doubt vlad inspired and they got what they F deserved in perth and iirc correctly I was at a bday bbq for friends and we had such a great laugh I almost popped a sausage out the other end  :lol

I could go forever about how worthless these pricks are but let me leave you with this. Last year when we played gc suns I went to the pub to watch with friends, had to leave suddenly cos one of my kids was rushed to the royal. As I got there we had to wait in the emergency room for some time. As we were waiting I noticed a guy in a nought polo and matching cap.
By the time we were ready to go in, the result of our game was mentioned on  channel 7 newsbreak to which I though F hell. I looked across the room and the nought wanker had the biggest grin on his face and looking around the room to see if anyone else was a nothiningless nought like himself to which he caught my eyes of fire.

 Kid ended up ok, my depise for the poo worthless club and their poxy frame of a president- no
The anywhere, anytime Tigers.
