I think we are currently at a crossroads in development.
Clearly there are two players ready to play AFL in Collard and Schoenmaker.
Bring them in and we're almost too young a side, need some experience beside them for on field coaching and leadership. Especially up forward.

Re: Team v Roos
Hayes for Caminiti Wood for Sharman Webster for Cordy King for ... Higgins? I'd love to see King play like a forward pocket. Reckon he'd kick more goals that way. How exactly? It’s not the 90’s anymore. No one plays positions anymore. Talls play deep forward or mid forward. He’d have the same oppon...

Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?
This trash argument doesn't even deserve a response, and certainly doesn't belong unchecked on a poorly moderated footy forum.

Re: Higgins Alir incident
The message received by the clubs and public from this incident is:
- Arm holding tackles are not OK. The AFL should come out and state that holding an arm/wrist is the equivalent of pinning.
- Dragging an opponent down with your own weight is considered "rotating" the tackle.

Re: Higgins Alir incident
We should definitely be appealing the decision. If not for us then for the other clubs in the AFL.
This level of inconsistency can't be allowed to stand.
"Outcome = punishment" is not the way to change behaviours.

Re: Selection over the next couple weeks
History tells us we don't make more than the required changes +1 in any given week. Higgins for King is a likely option. But I don't like it - we are already too top-heavy both forward and back. If I were on the selection panel. In: Paton or Webster (whoever is fitter), Collard, King Out: Higgins, C...

Re: The Jimmy Situation
Is there an appropriate match up for Paton and is he more suitable than someone else? Multiple goals kicked by these guys last week: Larkey, Zurhaar, Duursma. And the week before: Larkey, Curtis. The case for Paton is pretty good. You could almost bring in both Paton AND Webster. I don't think we n...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
We argued to get it thrown out, but if not they're arguing exceptional circumstances to reduce.
The issue is you only get one chance to put out an argument. You can't come back after being rejected to having it thrown out to try and reduce it.

We almost lost to North twice out of the last 3 matches. With the form we're in I wouldn't be surprised if we lose.

Re: Phillipou Close to Signing
The Wilson and Pou comparison will linger forever, but I'll say this on it now. They are both vastly different footballers. I'm excited because you need both for a premiership side. We are developing Philippou to be a contested ball beast. A Petracca type. He's been thrown in the deep end to the mos...

The Jimmy Situation
With Jimmy Webster back from his suspension this week, it poses an interesting question. Is there value in leaving him out? No doubt in my mind he's a walk up start in our current side, based on what he brings on the field. BUT, a young side like north could leverage some emotion around Jimmy to put...

Re: Players in question for 2025?
196cm+ KPD are rare as hens teeth and would be sought by quite a few clubs in the market.
Hawthorn and North definitely need one each.
Dougal is a better full back than McKay and look at how much he got.

Re: Crab watch
We don't need a group of senior GOPs who are not winning their positions, as an example for the young players though I disagree, if their skillset is in mentoring and building talent. Cut these players at your peril, and end up in a long, long rebuild. North would be a much better side if they held...
