That has to one of the worst games I've sat through.
I was relieved at the end, but so bitterly disappointed we didn't nail their arses to the side of Etihad Stadium like we should have.
Defence played well.
Midfield struggled.
Forward line struggled worserer.
Some changes need to happen to get this team back into the winning ethos.
Having missed the game today due to commentary duties in the Sydney AFL, should I bother to watch my IQued game? Was it crap enough to override the absolute euphoria of beating those pricks, regardless of the margin?

YOU BETCHA!!!!!!
Remember '96. Always good to see us beat those pricks. Worth it to see stellar efforts by Shaw, Grundy and Kennelly and a fine cameo by Jetta.
We didn't play well but it was a brave and courageous effort so i'll be watching a replay next week.

Watch it, Rhodesy. It is always a good day to beat North. Patches of the game had some great play.. and you know we won, so the missed shots and turnovers won't bother you as much as watching it live
177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

Basically they went forward when they got clear posssession with ease, and scored. Usually minors.
Defence held up well under pressure.
We struggled to go foward, and struggled to score.
Still not sure how we won.
Oh yeah that's right a Sub named Jetta, finally got to do what he does best, run, and run fast.
Played north back into the game on so many occasions , the way the ball is coming into the 50 is a disgrace . Didn't think the forward pressure was what it should have been ball came out to easy . Not having Mumford hurts and it showed in the clearances . Thank god for the backline today saved our bacon big time ... If we play like that v Carlton at the dome in a few weeks we will get beat by 100
Hopefully this game will prove one thing....
Pyke is most definitely better then Seaby
Agreed. Lets just hope Horse sees how influential Mummy is and gives him the proper back up. Then all we need to do is get TDL in the team and get another dozen games into our young boys and get the team gelling.Originally Posted by Cpt. Kirk
Sam Reid is just quality quality quality. I don't care what ND pick # we got him at, if it was anything below #5 it was a freakin' bargain. He just has super-sticky fingers, runs to the right spots and presents all day. Promising signs from Johnston and Parker too, and Johnson #34 showed real poise and maturity beyond his years on occasion. Shaw amazing and just had one of those days out, while only accumulating about 8 possessions! Also possibly Bird's best game for us since the big injury?
Apart from those individual highlights and it being nice to grind out a win, yep, just a poor match where you gratefully take the 4 points but have to move on quickly.
God I hated sitting through that game for many reasons, nut mainly their supporters!
I drink your tears north melbourne supporters. You bunch of sooking negative booing morons. @@@@ culture and @@@@ supporters. Nearly being outnumbered by an interstate team at home... Pathetic
He he nice rant M+M. Agree totally they were terrible yesterday.
