Although… the umpiring. My goodness, they AFL scraped the bottom of the barrel with those 4 peanuts.

40 point win, 2nd on the ladder, 5% increase.
I hate to see a bad win. Meanwhile the Pies don’t care as long as they win, close, blow out, look bad, look good, they don’t care, as long as they win. Some of you might need to learn that concept.
Imagine being miserable after your team wins and sits 2nd on the AFL ladder when the expectation was 1-7 after the first 8 games?

We only won the 2000 Grand Final by 60.
I’m still disappointed.

Very true!
Must have 2 rucks. Bryan in. Goldy needs to be supported if we’re gonna keep getting games out of him. He will likely want to play Dreamtime but he’s gonna need a nreak eventually.

Right?!?!
To the one free kick they got that was actually legit.
My spirit animal.
Needs to be put in the supporters thread.

Good to win without Merrett having to pull us out of it or Langford. Good to see Wright clinch a few. Thought the defense was solid. The bad was we were smashed in clearances. But get Darcy back in should help. Guelfi is seriously underrated he has kicker 11 in 4 games?
We have been up for a few weeks now so take the win be reminded we aren’t invincible learn a few things and then into the Tigers.
Think Goldy needs to be rested. Bryan doing well again today plus we have Rids and Reid.
I thought Lav played well again today and no coincidence as Rids and Reid getting back putting on selection pressure and Lav stepping up.

Massivly disappointing, did Durham, Mckay or Langer’s play today.
Our fwdline has plenty of ponies but only one trick. the midfield is not talanted enough to have Goldy one out.
At least we’ll be under no illusion as to how the dream time game will pan out.
To the North big footy board:
You are not close to it
You were never close to it
Fold and die

Omigod do people seriously think you have to basically win every kick and score and quarter and game by ten goals to be any good.

We crushed their hopes and dreams after the fisrt half 
Durham had a rolled ankle apprently
I went to the Norf game last year that we only won by 6 points. Now that was a bad win. Today was a big improvement.

That’s a strange take when we kicked our second highest score for the year.
Scratchy win.
Incidentally, there is a lot of goal-post shifting around expectations this year.

That was North’s best game of the season. Legit they generally had a fair say in the game overall and we still cruised to a 40 point win.
Would be nice to belt teams, but really good teams will get themselves a handful of cruisy 5 to 7 goals wins
