North Melbourne pre-game discussion (with teams)

[UglyDuckling]

tough in and outs this week

Out: Bird, Playfair

In: Meredith, Johnston

White - i like everyone desperately want white in the team but i think what is best for everyone is that he finds some good form before he comes back in. Though it would be tempting to bring him back because we have no forward line.

Jetta - Ditto want him back but should wait till he hits form

[Peace]

Would definitely be bringing in Jetta and Johnston.

Veszpremi must play this week, surely! No doubt the match committee will find a reason not to play him though. If Jetta / White were sent back to find confidence and form then they need more than one week in the reserves, regardless of how many injuries we have.

Meredith is another who should come in this week.

Agree on Vez! he didn't do much wrong in the 1 game he has played this year and at least he can kick! Would love to see Johnston and Merideth in this week also.

No need to worry. The players have said that this is a do or die game and that the rest of the season will be catapulted from this weeks performance. Everyone will play really hard and Tadgh predicts Goodes to be best on ground.

Didn't someone post this just before the Pies game?

And the Tigers game?

Except it will probably be:

IN: Bevan, Richards
OUT: Bird, Playfair

Agreed, the conservative approach will no doubt be taken and it's really starting to get tiresome, I'm over it.

From reading this thread, your fwd line is in as much disarray as ours. If you contain Lindsay Thomas (not a big ask) who will kick the goals for North? Lachie Hansen needs to have a big match.

Could be a Nil all draw....

[Donners]

After watching the Legends game, I reckon Luffy could get another game...

[Wardy]

I dont care who is in or out - I'd just like us to win - it only has to be by a point - but a wins a win!

[Nich]

Be interesting to see who gets around at training today. Bolts/Rohan etc. Interested to see if Gary is on the training pitch at all. I know someone mentioned he was hobbling around a bit at the end of the game but 1/2 week injuries don't necessarily rule players out for certain.

I'm a great fan of LRT, but where did he get this idea of the team from?

"Unfortunately for us, we went into our shells and we stopped attacking the ball and playing that free-flowing game we've been known to play."

Yes, we have been known to play it occasionally but not nearly often enough.
