    Worthy of a punt? North Game

    I reckon their backline looks suspect. Could be a winner!

    We are ranked 18th in scoring efficiency from F50 entries though. Good luck if you do go the punt GD

        Whilst the W/L ratio doesn't quite reflect this, I reckon Norf are going better than Collingwood at the moment so it will be a difficult assignment on Sunday.

          If you are going the punt I would say back the line.

          Would be something like + 38.5 for the dogs. Throw it in a multi with essendon and westcoast total match points over line.

            The WA trip brings them back a little but still think they'll be to strong.

              Have you seen their backline? They have a total of about 40 games experience between the lot of them, barring Scott. Reckon it's a 50/50 bet at worst. Going to be a tight game.

                      haha I think we are in with a chance but worst case will be a close game. We could have beat collingwood so we are definately in with a chance against a young backline. Also think the west coast trip wil take it out of them especially seeing they only get a 7 day break after a very wearing game and we are going in off a 9 day break

                      Think we are definately a chance! I might throw a lazy $50 on it see what happens

                        Good luck with the lazy 50 clams. For sure! I can't see the gloomy pooh pooh negative picture others are painting. We are in with a chance most definitely. had a good gander at the Kangas earlier in the season - they looked very good, run it well, but don't think they are that much better than Collingwood? Last week will have fired a few of our senior boys up and they will be looking to atone for their late bouts of disposalitis.

                          Yeah they have definately conceeded more than Collingwood and the Saints.
                          This may assist us a little, although we will need to be tight in defence and contain Petrie who loves playing against us. Also find some more run options out of defence with Wood injured.

                            Need to stop Petrie to win.
                            We're in with a shout, no doubt.
                            That effort in Perth is deceiving as West Coast should have won by more.
                            Also take into account the injuries the Eagles have as well

                              North supporters are lamenting how soft certain of their midfielders are. If we can smash them in the contests like we did in the rpeseason with our B team, we should account for them depsite our forward line.

                              I think sherman is probably due for a big game too.
