North fans reportedly in shambles

This is the main thing for me.

Caddy is THE key pillar and I expect one of the key leaders of the younger core. This is a statement of intent that they are seeing this through together. We need to cut out those toxic senior players that want out and build around Caddy and the rest of these guys. It’s their club now.

BomberBlitz sponsorship IS the reason he re-signed

Probably. And of course… this is part of it.

But there also has to be some self-determination to help turn this club around. The financial benefits are great, yes, but the satisfaction and personal/professional growth of turning around a club that has been down for a long time?

He has a good 10-12 years left of his career and I think he will see better times ahead, led by himself and others in that younger bracket around him.

At the kids skill clinic I must say Nate looked like he really had something on his mind he looked a little distant. Don’t get me wrong he hung around and interacted with the kids but even my son said he looked a bit sad. I was actually a bit worried that he might want out. I reckon he would have had the contract playing on his mind. Definitely a big decision to sign with us the way we are going. I was rapt to get the txt message.

He obviously will be well compensated for his decision, but you can’t help that this has a ‘alright guys, let’s take over this club’ feel to it.

He was very engaged with all the other young guys at the skill sessions and even lead the chorus of boos when a couple of the players said the barracked for Richmond and then Collingwood as kids.

Brilliant brilliant news!!

Dont forget Kakko, Roberts and im big on Clarke and hopeful on Johnson too. I guess that leaves us about another 30 odd players to find?

No idea who this is, but interesting nonetheless.

Great news regardless, thank you Cads

Hmmm. Does this imply Caddy was told Hird is the chosen one?

I don’t understand the 2-3 years part. That is very specific to know a coaching tenure lol.

Maybe it suggests just a 2-3 year contract for Hird to start with. And they’ll see from there.

Great news! If the young core can stay the course then perhaps the young fans can as well.
