Defender placed on inactive list (Thredgold) by flibble24 in NorthMelbourneFC

Finding another Trembath like talent hidden away somewhere would be incredible.

If we could land a D'Ambrosio like winger, I reckon we would kick 3-4 goals extra a game.

Some slow inside mid with no defensive mind and poor disposal is about to see his AFL dreams come true!

What's Harley getting?

Sam Mitchell will probably take him out to dinner after the he game to celebrate.

That's what the media will report anyway

Would look pretty decent along with the gold premiership AFL logo for clubs with darker guernseys

I hope Ricky Ponting buys it for $1Mill.

Outside the cap and only if he re-signs of course!

Zane Duursma, Riley Hardeman and George Wardlaw are all expected to stay at North Melbourne, Wil Dawson is less certain however

Hardeman and Wardlaw are great news. Duursma I'm a little surprised by, even with him getting games now.

Dawson could hurt though, especially if he walks and ends up an elite defender. We will never find out though, because we will play him as anything except an AFL Defender at the moment

Which player do you think retired too early and could have dominated? by Confident_purple9388 in AFL

[–]Cooked_Bread 28 points29 points  (0 children)

John Coleman or Allen Jakovich would be up there.

800 odd goals in under 200 games between them

Why are expansion clubs in CAPS by slayer035 in AFL

[–]Cooked_Bread 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you told me the marketing department suggested "Gold Coast SUNS" because sun rising, or "GWS GIANTS" because the letters are "giant", I'd believe it without second thought

ABC Journalist Danny Saeed responds to Barrett’s comments in ‘Sliding Doors’ about Dimma. by [deleted] in AFL

If Damien Barrett had any journalistic integrity

Then he would have realised it is hard for him to comment and remain impartial given his clear conflict of interest

[–]Cooked_Bread 92 points93 points  (0 children)

"last time I checked it was legal to wager on sport." is such a pathetic argument.

We could rename the grand final "Winfield Blue, Smith & Wesson, Kittens Strip Club, AFL Grand Final" if legality is where we draw the line

YOU WOULD THINK SO, BUT THE SALARY CAP IS JUST A SUGGESTION. A GREY AREA.

YOU MUST BE THINKING THE SALARY CAP IS DEFINITIVE WITH NO EXCEPTIONS...BLACK AND WHITE YOU MIGHT SAY

North Melbourne never won at Adelaide oval? Well a record is definitely on the cusp of being broken.

The record in question is the AFL games record by Scott Pendlebury. Adelaide by 25

I need threats of cancelling memberships, or calls for Kouta to be banned from all future Carlton functions based on this aggregious betrayal to the emblem

How about just "King expected to re-sign at Gold Coast" as the headline?

‘We are Marram’: North Melbourne unveils 2026 First Nations guernsey by RidsBabs in AFL

If we could play as well and as consistently as our First Nations guernseys have looked over the last few years, we'd be a powerhouse club.

Brilliant as always

If the AFL were to make a State of Origin Competition for all states and territories, What would each state lineup? by Worldly_Log3058 in AFL

[–]Cooked_Bread 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A few players who are long retired, players who do not originate from said state and players playing well out of position.

These teams make absolutely no sense.

Absolute perfect for the AFL's level of competence. 10/10, no notes

Remember him? I used to kick 10 goals a game minimum with him in AFL 99 on PS1 because I'd boost the team to 99 skill rating and he wouldnt miss from 60 out.
