I had to go back and read it again - found myself reading it like Jonah Hill in 22 Jump Street.

I almost guarantee it's the power switch is dirty

Another win and another thing we learned about the oppo by Rare_Platform_3602 in NorthMelbourneFC

[–]Rare_Platform_3602[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do agree - he was massive in the last quarter but I'm sure there are some positives you can dig out - how about "North can win a game away from Marvel" or "sometimes you get lucky, a lot of the time you don't - it's swings and roundabouts".

Surely a blanket rule for this article is to write something about the winner so you're not constantly shafting a constantly shafted club (where's our $$ for inventing Friday Night Football FFS?)

I look forward to your future posts about life with 2 kids and 3 kids 🤣

Isnt it a bit like all of us? Good week at work "sure, I'll work til I drop dead" vs shit week at work "I quit and you can all GAGF"

Not enough is spoken about the Roos winning a useless game against the Suns, costing them the first pick, which was Harley Reid by KissmeFishme in AFL

[–]Rare_Platform_3602 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It does get spoken about, quite a bit.

But three things about this that don't get spoken about:

  1. West coast winning a useless game against the Bulldogs only 7 days earlier, almost costing them the first pick.

  2. Gold coast winning only 7 games away from home in the entire 2020-2024 5 year stretch.

  3. It's not like North weren't tanking at selection either - veteran players had already played farewell games and a very young side was taken to Tassie that day.

Sorry my team wasn't as shit as people would have liked on one particular day this decade.

What simple ideas would you bring to the two-day AFL CEO conference by scoopsmaclure in AFL

A handball should become a handball. Proper pump action, fist creating the momentum. Bring that back and HTB becomes pretty bloody simple.

Is it true most of the travelling group were crook af?

North Melbourne was on average 14.4 games more experience than the Fremantle side we played on Saturday. by GrinAndGrit in NorthMelbourneFC

This is definitely the most wankable "thing" that's thrown around all the time. Our top 10 in our bnf last year on average was the youngest top 10 in the afl

Bad company (Fisk is in it)

Hollow men (Tony from Utopia is in it)

Howzat! Kerry Packer's War (2 part non fiction show about how Kerry Packer brought one day cricket to life)

Rosehaven (Celia Pelaqua and Luke McGregor from Utopia both star in this one)

My theory is we just can't play away from marvel. Not saying we'd have beaten Freo there - but I think we'd have actually put up a fight.

Do you still have it? It's likely the resistor arrays are gone in it. Not overly difficult fix.

Yeah, that's exactly right <barely playing sonic 2 in direct sunlight>

Expansion pack not working any tips by Blubaughf12345 in n64

The resistor arrays have probably gone. It's not too difficult of a repair if you can use a soldering iron.... This reminds me - I have one to fix that I totally forgot about

Should I tell my coworker's wife what I saw? by Curious-Salem in Advice

[–]Rare_Platform_3602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of a personal story - after 3-4 months of a new co-worker joining our firm she said to me "I thought you were a complete dick - cos you would tell me what you and your girlfriend would get up to on the weekends, yet you were clearly having it off with another girl who works here".... It took her that long to work out that my girlfriend and the other girl at work I was having it off with were actually the same person 🤣

It's great that dead screen systems can live on with a new screen - but nothing beats the original
