I for one was not surprised. The team had come off four very close hard fought wins including against teams we were not expected to defeat. Some let down should have been expected given the expectation of a much easier game. What it did expose however, is our relative lack of speed in the middle. Time to let McCreery off the leash!! It also highlighted our lack of height at both ends of the ground.

So close, so glad we won, as had my two Grandsons there for their first ever game, all decked out so really wanted a win. Nerve wracking, i knew Nth would be in rotten mood, they were humiliated last week, for weeks, and i feel our lads were a bit cocky, Nth really turned up to play for sure. they were relentless, we clearly had a off day, for 3 Qtrs, but finally came good, at the right end, finished well, ran over them for a hard earned win. Two things, i wonder when we will next win a match by 10 goals, be nice for a change. And Kudos to Dermott Brereton, who gave me two thumbs up and big hi, coming into the game, over my Pink Floyd hoodie, onya Dermie !

Not so sure Moore is the definite in that we hope and if he joins Grundy, Adams and De Goey on the sidelines for the game against the Crows then this looms as a genuine 50/50 contest at best.

Yesterday showed that despite our ladder position we remain very vulnerable if our intensity drops away and/or are missing a few of our best players.

On the question of Moore if he doesn't get up then perhaps we might need to consider the taller McMahon for a role on the equally young KPP Thilthorpe. Seems like a good opportunity to expose him to AFL level and potentially expand our KP options for 2022.

As for who replaces Adams will it be Macrae or is the medi sub from yesterday T. Brown next in line?

I'm hoping for Macrae who backed up his VFL performance from the previous round by setting a new season (personal) high for disposals yesterday.

Macrae or T.Brown. I reckon we should have a look at Ash Johnson as well.

Don’t let the win fool you this was a side from top to bottom who was complacent
From when we lost Moore we didn’t look to replace our tallest remaining defender with a like for like player
When JDG goes out again we just didn’t pay the respect to north
North were always going to be wanting to win they’ve been under the pump for weeks and there coach admitted during the week he had erred not letting them attack more
Fast forward to half time the TV plan our shed and there’s 3 different players smiling and laughing
Considering the circumstances of how bad we were playing you would expect them to be a little more concerned about there own performance than sharing a joke
The game was finally won finally on the back of brothers Daicos Pendles Howe Mc Rae and Adams
We had to tackle anything that moved and rely on some individual brilliance to beat a side who lets face it is well below average
I hope the coaches see the half time footage of the sheds and rip players a new one because that attitude doesn’t lend itself to any form of long term success
On a positive note if the players follow the example set by brothers Daicos then we will be a far better team going forward

Crows next week is at best 50/50 now with Adams likely to miss now
We will need Moore back to handle one of there tall forwards
