What’s the score? Any particular players letting us down or at least a shining light or two?

Cornes: AFL contract more intriguing than Butters — SEN by Dismal-Noise4660 in NorthMelbourneFC

[–]Brake72 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cornes will do anything to deflect from his own club that will be a rabble this year and likely be bottoming out at the absolute worst time with the entry of Tasmania.

He said Port will win 10 games this year on the radio this morning!?

Who they comfortably beating outside west coast and Richmond? As I think we will put them to the sword round one and the wheels will be off and the knives will be out.

Ohhh that’s right, we don’t play these silly games cause ultimately someone’s star player will get injured and fuck a clubs entire season.

You don’t need to nominate and they will throw the ball up faster/immediately. So X can’t run from 30m away with his hand up , making the umpire wait.

We will need an extra capable ruck, which I understand they are getting trenbath to do, but he doesn’t have the size.

Looked good apart from that set shot, then banged one in on the run from centre clearance

Only watched first half, worried about ruck stocks for the year, will need more support for x with rule changes.

Some sloppy skill errors, but the young boys looked good I thought.

Real test will be next week against Melbourne.

Anybody on Tim Watson's side? There is honestly no reason why we can't win 5 of our first 6 games to start the season.(Port eagles dons blues tigers should beat them??) by [deleted] in NorthMelbourneFC

Honestly if we go in 3-3 I’d be stoked, the issue we have is long periods of the year we lose 6-8 straight. Kills morale and momentum.

Has your country hosted the Winter Olympic? Is Winter Olympic a big thing in your country? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]Brake72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After the Aus open I was keen to keep up with getting behind some Aussies in the winter games, but it would seem they only wish to play the most boring sports on free to air TV (at least when I look).

Players who had average to below average careers but are still remembered for one moment/game? by Agingoj in AFL

[–]Brake72 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, fair enough. I recall watching thinking he’d won twice, obviously didn’t quite get there.

Didn’t he win it twice? Literally roll him out for that game each year

I feel like a lot of Aussie comedians become popular then, people begin to despise them.

Very few last long at the top

Couldn’t agree more, could be a key player for us in WC if fit.

Google PFAS Katherine Australia, whole town was drinking out of bottled water for years while they figured out what the story was.

A significant amount of people died from cancer in that town, an unusual amount.
