They say you often play the following week the way you finish off a game.

North 2.8 in the second half, 0.4 in the last quarter....

We're a monty!
Finals, then 4 in a row!

I reckon there's a certain amount of truth in that. But perhaps it should be offset against that phenomena in which teams that prevail in emotion charged circumstances week after week usually come crashing back to earth with an almighty thud (lop-sided GF's anyone?).

Having said that, there's something different about this Carlton team. Even at 17 points down with 10 mins to go I still thought, maybe ... just maybe.

I couldn't think of a worse match up for Jamison.
Well Brown or Petrie would monster him. Waite and Jamison are at least similar height and weight. Waite isn't as quick and mobile as he used to be, I just think Jamo can unsettle him with niggle.

Not sure that Jammo can run with a fit Waite.

Traditionally Norp isn't a good one for Jammo, but he's not on his Pat Malone in that regard.

I think Jammo stands Daw.

If Cripps is borderline to play on-ball, could he get a run as a KPD? If he is fit it's bad news for Norp as he played very well against them in the past, others who like playing Norp are Daisy, Tuohy, Kerridge, Everitt and Armfield.

I reckon Plowman on Waite, Rowe on Petrie and Jamo to cover Brown.
Reality always wins in the end.

Rumor is Wood gets a rookie spot for Casboult being LTI.

Kruze out not the end of the world, the clever coaching staff just have to figure out a way to drag them down to our level.

Hope a lot of you guys go to this game and take your friends and family.

I know it's not a home game, but I can't believe we can't get a good crowd there.

I'm going too, I've just recently moved back to Victoria after being away for 17 years!
This will be my 1st game ever at Etihad stadium, A North supporting friend has booked tickets for me, so I'm hoping I don't end up in the middle of their cheer squad!

Kreuzer going down is bad news, book Kerridge in for a 6 goal haul !!
