Ben Mckay on the footy show this morning kept getting asked about his time at North

Lloyds question was interesting. Basically asking if McKay has had Gorth players reach out to ask what it’s like playing somewhere else/leaving the club and about his experience.

McKays response danced around it a bit, but he essentially said yes.

[Finding_Nino]

Still has mates at North that he keeps in touch with wouldnt surprsise me if nab a few North players

[Finding_Nino]

Was just about to say reckon any north players that want out we are on the box seat to get them imo

[Duplicity]

Yeah Caddy unlucky

[Odoyle]

If we want them…

Free burgers and banana milkshakes!

Must be FC Chef version

I’m reading between the lines, based on how Trade period panned put.

I’m assuming that Shiel isn’t in Brad’s plans and Brad told him to seek out some other clubs.

Dodoro didn’t want to lose his prized recruit & business partner and pushed back.

The frustration on Dodoro’s face, when asked if we want to trade Shiel was pretty damn evident.
“We’re not interested in trading Shiel”

@savio_the_don

Being at the game, you could clearly see the conditions worked against us and we didn’t do ourselves any favours by over possessing the ball.
Our clearances have been an issue the last two games and we need another ruckman to support Goldstein.
But our structures held and thanks to our backline, we got over the line.
We’ll be facing similar conditions next week, so let’s hope we review the game thoroughly and make the proper adjustments.

This.

Don’t usually get those conditions in September either.

So as long as we keep banking 4 points to make it.

Don’t worry about it!

[IceTemple]

Vozzo and Scott would have been able to over-ride Dodoro when the time came. The surgery put paid to it though.

[Odoyle]

I reckon there were others that were pretty interested in trading Shiel if they could….

The saints pulled out

[j_w]

This is some really interesting fan fiction. But I reckon you will find that Shiel is cooked and no one particularly wanted him (other than potentially the Saints and then he did his foot).

@Wanderlust

Wow - so with the exception of Grimes, probably their first choice backline.

They really did throw everything at us for that game

I’d say gibcus would be best 22 too

@BomberAbroad

My 6 year old little girl who was sitting right next to me.

…and that would be a super incredible force. You did well not to answer the flog.

[whereswalla]

Vlastuin, Balta, Miller, Rioli…not sure who else but recognised those four.

[vitz]

Only Essendon could be having a good season that is also somehow very mediocre.

[Wanderlust]

Langford on 7 news said they’ve set a really high bar this year on what they expect during their games.

Said “yes we won, but we need to get better and perform better during these games”

[Clone_Hirdy]

I went to the game and unfortunately I am off the lid on bandwagon. The injuries are now hitting us hard.
