What a pathetic and dishonest football club. They've been chasing the "big fish" in recent years throwing around money they can't afford with deluded promises to these "big fish" as well as to their own senior players that they were challenging for a flag. Now after topping up has proven to be a total disaster, you have Ben Buckley taking about a long rebuild and Brad Scott bemoaning a lack of resources in the past and that their recruiters never got a chance at the top youth because they kept finishing mid-ladder. No one took responsibility for the mess they are in. Their list is where we were in 2004 when Spud left. Still reliant on their now old players with little quality youth coming through.
You'd expect a few senior North players now wanting out at the end of the season. Their only chance of playing finals again is at another club.
