    North get first for the qtr after 14 mins. Dogs 8.3 to north 6.4
    There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist.

      What are North trying to do with Campbell just sitting in defence? I would have thought developing defenders would have been a priority.
      Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

        Says you. I started the thread way back and suggested multiple positional changes. Schache and Dale down back. It was at the same time I suggested Matty Boyd become a Half Back.

          We keep on chipping it into the wind and are then being shocked that it's turned over.

            I recruited Tom Boyd. Please turn out the lights when you’re done.

              The issue has been whether Schache has the skills to be a defender and the intensity.

              I would still trial him and see what happens at VFL level

                  It's always been a good suggestion and there is only one way of checking it. Looks like he's been given a chance to see if he is an option.

                        Not as strong as in the first half but it's got some kick.

                            We're not kicking it to leading targets either, it's just constantly kicking it high to stationary targets.

                              Schache with a nice 1 on 1 spoil. I'm so proud.

                                Correct. No one including Jamarra is going to take marks today with entries like this.
