Thread: Round 6 - North Melbourne

    Yes I did. But that was more frustration that the Swans blew an opportunity to get into the top 4 themselves, and let Port-North play off for a grand final spot.

    I think we need to stop underestimating them. They made the prelim last year and have started this season just as well as we have. They deserve a lot of respect.

    Will be a very tough game to win. They're all going to be tough to win without Hall.

    If we win, it won't be my much.

    If we start a quarter late and fall asleep in the last 15 minutes like we did last week, it will still be 12 years since we beat North Melbourne in Melbourne.

    As long as we don't give away a 6 goal start....

    Having no Hall hurts as there is no Gibson in their backline.

    Will be tight but i think we can grind out a win. Swans by 21.

    Huh? Did you just start watching Sydney last weekend? I'm not sure how we're well down after one loss, especially since we pushed Geelong all the way.

    I think we'll beat the Roos by 18 points.

    North North North by 12 pts i reckon....

    Shutdown ROK & Firrito on MO'L only leaves Davis to kick goals (which none of you guys seem to rate).

    North's midfield did well last weekend, but will the Irishman return?

    We have some good tall forwards and crumbers so provided we play direct free flowing football we won't be hearing "Cheer Cheer the Red and the White" after the match.

    The various polls would indicate differently.

    I was partially correct. We didnt hear cheer cheer the red and the white.... but then we didnt hear my favourite club song either.
