Give him a break. That happens 100 times a game and its pay on. Now, he gets penalised. It was there....but so are 99 others that dont get paid.



Give him a break. You serious. The bloke is on $700k a year.
He needs to pull his finger out and become the player we all thoughts he would be.

Walsh gives away a free for standing up for himself. Kangas bloke should get a fine for the head forearm to the head unprovoked behind the play.

Gov takes a grab inside 50 and gets taken off him because Martin went for mark of the year.

So HIS problem is he doesn't live up to YOUR expectations?

Perhaps he is not the issue?

He is responsible for the first goal.
He would've had the last if not for Martin taking it away.
He had a free against him just before that that gets played once in 100 tackles.

Watch him without the ball.
He blocks, he shephards he makes space for teammates.
He is not having a great game sure, but he is not doing a fev and giving up, he is still doing the little things to try and work himself into the game.

Not much from Betts. Nothing from Moore. Not much from Jones. Not much from a lot of others. There is plenty of improvement available.
Live Long and Prosper!

 Kruddler would u say  McGovern has been worth the investment ?  both money wise and what we gave up to get him?

So many of our players don’t man the hell up! Why!!

Too many players missing, it’s like as soon as North got physical we yet again seem to capitulate. 

The free against Walsh was a load of crap, and Setters HTB was rubbish - commentators said Borth were rewarded for a good tackle - but we did the same their end and nothing.

McGs lazy chase of the ball, then overrun it is not good enough.

Newnes and Willos dinky kicks that resulted in a north goal, not good enough.

Eddies push in the back for no reason!

Another qtr like that we will lose. We are not locking it in the fwd line. Cripps is playing angry and being beaten, just win the footy and dish it off quick. Martin is playing the dumbest game for the club so far. Gov as I said is an embarrassment. Moore is out of his depth. SPS is the laziest footballer I have ever seen. Is Betts out there?
Pitto is doing ok v Goldy.
Losing against a VFL side at best will hurt.

We have given them a sniff after a reasonable start. This is all a team like Norf needs. Playing like cr@p. Just cr@p. Moore selection has been a disaster. Get him off, play anyone else and rotate Levi into the ruck with Pitt. Backline is super sloppy. Forward line is falling over itself and fumbling likes it pouring with rain. A lot of quiet players. I'm hoping that they improve. Not sure if Teague ever uses the spray but today might be a good time.

Mcgovern started well with a goal assist to Gibbons but needs good delivery and system. Nth have turned the game into a messy scrap
and we have lost method so the Gov is going to have to scrap harder and get a bit of spice in his game. Not a day to be playing fancy footy.. Contest well and be direct ie Newnes
