No point in tackling when the bloke nearest him was wearing black & white stripes on most occasions.

And 21 snags to 3, Norf are shite, Brayshaw has a big migrane now. !
Our Pies are unstoppable now, look out you Blues suckers, we are gunning for youse, and this time we will play four quarters, not one like last time. BE AFRAID BLUETURDS, BE VERY AFRAID. !!!!!!!!
Good to catch up with you again mate, you were looking fairly merry . :wink:

Winning beats losing every day of the week obviously. But where's the fun in beating a side that isn't even in the same league as us (actually that might be every other side). I could watch us beat carlton to oblivion every week and not get bored. 8)
Go Pies!

still amazes me the worry on sidey.
Now he only plays well in the wet :shock:

From memory, and not very reliable but I dont think it rained much through the final series and Im sure it didnt rain GF day where he could have won the Norm smith.

The kid is............well still a kid. He covers the ground well, sticks to the structures and runs the game out as good as anyone. It was only a matter of time before he had a great game and in saying that he was not playing badly.
Guilty of setting the bar too high.

Pleased to see the boys kick on when the game was won and not take the foot off as we have done this year.

Keefe is still learning the game and from what I saw in the vfl gets better every time he runs out. His size and mobility is hard to come by and I have seen him courageous in the contest in the air so he is no light weight.
Imagine what he will learn from Taz, Brown and jolly over the next few years !

^^Just a joke mate. Massive Sidey fan. I've had no issue with his form this year, as to me, he is always putting in the work.

He does seem to love the wet though.
Well done boys!

anyone notice our tackle count right up again.
no coincidence some of our better wins lately have matched the tackle counts we were seeing last year.

What the hell was Mick Malthouse thinking when he said North Melbourne would definately make the 8??

He must have been taking the piss out of them...

I dont think he actually said "top" eight, did he?

Crikey, there I was worried about us slacking off. That was a ruthless performance, admittedly against weak opposition. But the attitude on the park is incredibly professional.

Very encouraging games by the youngsters. As others have said, hopefully Keeffe gets a few games on the trot. Excellent defensive game by Roundsy.
