2 of our 6 goals have come from turnover. That’s unusually low for us.

North in comparison have kicked 10 of their 14 goals from turnover.

Yeah blaming umpires won’t help up. Blaming the players for playing poorly and not being good enough so far is more the reason for this debarkle

Yep after the dogs game I questioned the positions especially Frampton and was spiked… I realise the cupboard is bare but Frampton must play down back and Moore is having a terrible year.

It’s no surprise today, the league is changing and the teams with young top 10 talent stacked to the rafters are coming through. Thank god we won the flag last year.

I’m not sure what we can do to turn this around.

North Melbourne are just up for this game. They have a bunch of tall forwards we can’t seem to mark.

And they look dangerous every time they move it forward.

Pies brought some improved pressure that quarter for parts but we have had to work a lot harder for our goals.

Krueger has gone in soft to a number of contests where he could have committed his body more (maybe worried about getting injured.

Sullivan has been pretty bad. Tew has also been poor but it is his first game.

We also just play badly on this ground.

Reckon I might take our new Labrador pup for a walk, in my absence we just might come good, at long last. ! Cheers guys.

Trying to put a positive spin on this, but the record comeback from half time in VFL/AFL history is 52 points which we did against St Kilda in 1970.

So it would have to be one of the all-time great comebacks to turn this around.

Fair play to North. They were superb in the first half.
