Not a lot of interest in this thread: fair enough considering.
However, the Baby Blues won!

NORTHERN BLUES          2.2       3.5       6.8         10.9 (69)
NORTH MELBOURNE       0.1       3.4       4.4         5.5 (35)

GOALS
Northern Blues: Fisher 2, J. Silvagni 2, Kennedy, Keppel, Kerr, Palmer, Wheeler, Wilson

BESTS
Northern Blues: Lobbe, Kennedy, Fisher, Wilson, O’Brien, Goddard, J. Silvagni

Some good signs, especially 30 possessions to Kennedy.

However, the Blues have a Bye next week, which limits the options to some of our returning senior players. :(

Time to bring back Kennedy and give Fas the week off.

Yes. Fasolo needs time to find some form, which he isn't doing in the seniors. (I am still very surprised we went for this guy, but ...)

Northern seem to get the bye first round every year, it's starting to get on my wick.  Makes it hard for blokes coming off PS delays and surgeries to finalise  their fitness prior to the season staring.

He's building.

It's slow but he was better this week than last week.

With Charlie out, Kennedy and jsos should come in for Charlie and Alex.

It was interesting that Schumacher was the travelling emergency.   Maybe he gets a game first??

There is no point posters bagging Poulson and then giving guys like Gibbson, Garlett, Ed and Fasolo a free pass.

Ed and Alex have AFL level history on their side though.

Polson should continue getting a game whilst he runs and chases the way he does.

I don't think that qualifies as an excuse for the tripe they are delivering, it probably gives them less scope for an excuse!

We need the running power so Kennedy in and Fasolo can run punishment laps around the tan until he getss some semblance of fitness.

We were sold the myth that ‘post indiscretion’ he trained the house down and fitness wise, he was cherry ripe. Were we told a few porkies, or is he just not adjusting to the tempo of the game at this stage???

You read my mind Townsend.... "Trained the house down" we were told.  I call bulldust.  Strike one against Russell.
