    Round 19

    Kangaroos have to be a massive chance this week against Freo who's injury list lengthens by the week. No Ballantyne & Sandilands. C'mon Kangas, do us a favour.

    It's the roughie of the round as far as I'm concerned. North would have to improve a fair bit though.

    North have a couple of handy in's in Wells and Grima, so hopefully they can get up - as much as I dislike North after this season.

    No longer a roughie - Kangas have shot to outright favourites with the bookies. According to a rep from one of the betting agencies who was on the radio tonight, most of the "smart" money was with North before today, but once Sandilands was ruled out, it has been an avalanche!!!

    Interesting note - I got an email from Mazda Australia during the week with the offer of 2 free tickets to the Kangas v Fremantle game on Saturday. I wonder how many Mazda owners received the same offer - they mustn't be expecting too many at the game (level 3 will not be opened for the game). It wouldn't surprise me if the paid attendance is less than 5000, with the freebies pushing the crowd to 10,000.

    Carlton's big win tonight has made tomorrows game in Sydney very interesting, especially if Hawthorn lose - the "Joker" in the premiership race could be 8th and in danger of missing the finals.

    IMHO North should go to Tassie permamently, there is no way they can build their supporter base in Melbourne, no way!

    When he wrote the article they were top 4 and had beaten St.Kilda and Geelong so why shouldn't they have aimed for top 4?

    Since then the wheels have fallen off and they are playing terrible.

    Both articles were justified.

    It would benefit their cause no end, in fact any team that relocates there would do very well with community and government backing.

    How many very good footballers have come from Tassie over the years.

    The crowd versus us last week was pretty dissapointing, especially considering we had a similar size crowd the preveious week against Freo.

    Yep, only an extra 2,000 more attending the Dogs v North game than the Dogs v Freo game.

    Hopefully another very good player will emerge, Liam Jones.

    Jack Riewoldt also looking the goods.
