Review Norf game #1 for 2023

I’d love to see in a Grand Final with 15 seconds left and the team up by 1 point and the umpire fluffs the centre bounce, only to waste 5 seconds off the clock and make it physically impossible to score with only 10 seconds left as he throws it up.

This was posted by one of Dool’s accounts in the Team thread this week. We had no divine right to turn up and win easy

Very good win. Didn’t play our best football but fought it out. Thought we were gone, wrapped

That was legitimately one of the games of the season. We had a poor second quarter, but the second half from both teams was epic. Norf brought it.

It was a dogfight, and another true test of our character. great win, stoked

Found a way to win after a horrible showing. Only thing that makes me smile after that is all 5 lol norf supporters crying they lost their grand final 10 times in a row.

Brad after the game should be like “we take the 4 points but dont you ever play like that again”

Carlton will roll us next week

When a tackle hits your head bandage it’s probably high.

Ump says no.

I reckon that North beats current Carlton.

But yeah we will need to improve

Great win.

I hope we make some videos of it, with crowd reactions and all the different commentary behind it.

Certainly the sort of win to get carried away with.

It was sh*t from a side right in the Finals mix.
What a game though ?
Seriously, it was pretty exciting.

Next game against them will be willing.

The amount of crap I copped from mates when I told them how much I was bricking it over this game was enormous. I just saw that coming. I’m sure I’m not the only one. I knew North would be up for it, they’re playing with freedom. Hated every minute of that 2 hours but thank ■■■■ we won it because I’d be heading to the nearest bridge if we didn’t.

If the answer to any question the club asks is Phillips or Wiedeman, then the clubis asking the wrong question…

It sucked that we couldn’t do this victory with much more ease, but at the same time let’s not underestimate the importance of another close win when the chips were down. We are building character. This would have most certainly been a season defining loss in any of the last 15 - 20 years.

They have been building towards it. Did some good things against Collingwood.

Only difference was the Pies were able to punish them more than we did when we had control.
