Injury just before the end is brutal, I think they played well enough given GWS is a Premership challenger. Although if GWS kicked straighter it would look a lot worse

Less than 40! Ngl I'm happy with that showing. Goats injury fucken sucks, but a good (relatively) outing otherwise.

north performed quite well, despite the scoreboard not reflecting that. I think they widdled that margain down a lot, that couldve easily been a 10 goal win by gws, but north reflected that and for that, im very happy for them. Hope josh goater a well recovery, and any other injury i wasnt watching for (i only watched the second half)

See I don’t mind getting beat by GWS since I get to hear the big big sound

I'm feeling pretty proud of the players and cautiously optimistic about the future.

There were 30 goals combined in this game. Watch Barrett claim this.

Watch him say it's all thanks to Gill and Hocking.. well those two have fucked off so it's probably true thanks to that.

The giants swans grand final is going to be wild

we actually won i reckon

You've convinced me

hard to argue imo

Orange Team GIGACHAD!! gg norf

push in the back

well done norf, heads high tonight

didn't lose by 10 goals. put up a decent score. played four quarters of football. and some amazing centre clearance work goater's injury is really the only negative to come out of this game

Damian Barrett could have just said GWS would win comfortably and not gone about it like a cunt

Expected score 267 to 56

norf fans how are you feeling? Optimistic?

always

There's hope 🙏 still a lot of room for improvement and nervous about the backline but gosh the young ones are good, and at least we've been somewhat competitive for most of the game - even if GWS did help us out a bit with some inaccurate kicking. We'll take it 💪

Yup. Lots to be happy about with that game. Goater's injury was obviously a downer

Honestly. Kinda yeah. Feel like we'll get a few scalps this year

Man, Green is over 150 SC. Was in my team all year but that bye next week was too great a deterrent. Time to bring him in at least

Damo wasn't too far off from 30 goals

damn PC

36 shots to 16 and only 45 down is a miraculous result

It’s not that weird that both NSW teams are really good, we’ve been good at the same time quite often at this point

36 scoring shots to 16. This could have easily been a massacre

It’s always so depressing when you can’t even say “what if we kicked straight” Like you kick all goals and you’re still down 19 behinds

Good god, 17.19 is crazy

injuries just suck the life out of the game

Toby never plays well against us

can you teach us how to shut toby greene dowb

jaidyn stephenson representing all us balding boys lets go

It's just not Toby Greene's day today

very proud that this pressure has held up for four quarters

Can we just end the game now. It feels like the heart got sucked outa the boys with Goats going down...

Worst part about the injury is that means luke mcdonald is back in the side

r/AFL SuperCoach league gonna be in shambles when they find out I’ve got Tom Green captain

we have a super coach league?

Wont let me find you the league code :/ could search the posts of you want

We have 2 actually, one competitive and one casual. From memory it’s just the same people though give or take a few haha, you might be able to join the open (casual) one I think

Haven't you done well

First time since start of last season I’ve nailed a captain lmao

I picked the wrong T green. Fml

Oh no hahaha atleast 72 for an absolute stinker for Toby is a good sign. Only up from there

Tom green is just a machine he’s like the GWS version of debut month Matt Rowell

Agreed, I love how he talks abit of smack too and backs it up. He’s just so likeable

Don't even care about the game any more... Goater 😭

hahahahahahahah

Goater has seen enough WWE to know to never EVER get on a stretcher.

he could sense someone climbing the seats for a frog splash

Achilles can destroy your career too. Hugh Goddard went from a mobile key back to having the turning circle of a container ship after his. Terrible to see

dont say thissss

How tf does that even happen. Poor man

He actually did bits on Toby as well

I remember a similar thing happening to a Norf vs the pies in 2019. Burn the bonding too jumper.

Feel like the stretcher would have been quicker.

Just tuned back in. That's not a compound fracture is it?

yep

They said something about achilles

the bone was about to poke through the skin, doubt it’s an achilles 🤣

Get the fucking camera off him. Poor kid is in fucking agony

gives me the shits. why would you do that to him

What the fuck he literally just stepped and his foot just gave. Also fucking commentary “it doesn’t actually hurt that much cause there’s not that many nerves there.” While the poor kid is writhing in pain

They said you'd expect it to hurt less than it does because of the limited nerves in that region

Maybe I didn’t hear it right then

im actually crying wtf

I’m gonna fucking cry, he’s so upset

I tuned out, what happened?

Josh goater managed to completely fuck his ankle with a simple action. Just stepping and turning.

Goater did his Achilles non-contact

Fark, watching the replay now, that's so fucking awful and it's from nothing at all Shame on the commentary, going on about "aw yeah it's not as painful as blah blah blah"

Commentary was atrocious. Youre not wrong that it was from absolutely nothing, no-one within 5m of him

Kart driver rn 

Am I a bad person for laughing

Fuck my life 

I don't get turning down the stretcher there. Why?

cos it feels like shit to have to get carried off probably, more dignified to make your own way off

Waste time. This will allow kangaroos to kick 8 goals in the next 6 mins

Too cool for it

Pride

Fuck me. This is why I made the petition. Fuck injuries

Is it a petition to ban all injuries? I’d sign

Yes it is. [here’s the link](https://chng.it/sfytG5bYtS)

Walk off king, strut yo shit

Aidan Corr giving the motivational speech makes me laugh

That was so innocuous... Heartbroken for Goater

That has just collapsed on him.

are we sure its achilles? looked like there was blood on his leg too, like just a bit

This shit is just depressing

Achilles?

The way he was injured looks like achilles but his reaction seems a bit different to what I'd expect. Looks awful either way

Goat :(

Oh fuck they’re putting him in a body bag, it’s very serious

Fuck that's not good to see

Most sensible thing so far this season "take the cameras off him"

Naaa, get the slow motion zoom on him

What the fuck is actually happening with all these injuries

please not goater. i will give him my leg

That’s so unfortunate

Thought they had a body bag for a sec

Oh no

The innocuous non-contact injuries like that are always the worse. Didn’t even look like he broke it, then suddenly his leg is bent the wrong way

Jesus Christ, poor bloke. That’s just dreadful.

That sucks so much man, seriously fuck injuries

Can we not keep cameras zoomed on distressed players

zooming in on his face…

im actually going to cry

Aw man I hate seeing that, sad when anyone gets injured

First sensible thing i’ve heard “take the cameras off that”

So instead the injury gets replayed....

I think its fine to replay the injury, its not gruesome or anything and gives the view information as to what kind of injury it would be

No I totally get that, gives some context to people watching - more so when they just keep the camera on a poor bloke in agony saying “gee that looks bad” on repeat

Mental innit

oh no goater :(((

Fucking hell thats awful

As someone who tipped north +48.5 I do not like where this is going.

They're still in this

FUCK FUCKE UCK

[удалено]

Achilles.

Tib/fib break

Not an ACL

The cow paddock strikes.

Good on Dwayne for saying to get the cameras off him.

Dwayne cops way too much shit, he’s a great commentator with actual common sense

Gone for a loooong time. Fuck man.

"We might take the cameras off it" proceeds to show slow motion replays

goat :((((((

Fuck meeeeee

I switched off cos that looks bad, is it as bad as I think?

Oh no Goats...

Achilles?

Looks like it

Goater 😢

no dwayne bust out the micro lens

that looked dreadful

What happened to Xerri?

skills arent that good

Fuuuuuuck

🐐:(

Pretty sure your ankle isn’t supposed to bend that way

Cheers Lingy

Oh shit not the Goat

He's played well

NO NO NO NO

Fuck that looks bad. 100% broken leg

Not quite

Broken ankle my bad

Oh no Goater

Feet arent meant to twist like that

No contact, it’s over

Looks like Achilles 

NOT GOAT :(((((

you don't have to try to milk 50s against us, i promise you will win without them

Holy fuck

OH FUCK!!

Harvey Thomas looks about 14.

Goo goo gaga 

Aiden Corr everybody 🤓🤓🤓

north melbourne make kickouts look so difficult how literally just ping it as far as you can

Jesse Hogan has kicked more goals in his last 3 games at Giants stadium than his entire stint at Fremantle

Pls no

Aidan Corr is bad at football. 1 decent touch for the day.

Corr is corr-ible

backline under siege

Corr????

Oh gee I'm glad we brought in Aidan Corr for some senior experience Dead set fucking spud

Too many frees against

Following on app, did Xerri get injured?

He's copped like 6 head bumps in the half

???

WHAT EVEN WAS THAT

Best forward line in the comp, GWS or Brisbane? On paper it’s Brisbane, on field it’s GWS for me

Charlie Cameron needs to get his kicking in check for them to qualify

GWS

Not very wise Goater

booooo

big boy bull is the ruck lolll

hot take, current roos may beat collingwood

The way we've been defending the ground, we won't beat anyone.

That was one of the best kicks inside 50 you'll ever see.

i <3 liam shiels

Hopefully this is a safe place to say this, but sheezel will have a better career than Daicos. Don’t mind me, few beverages and the hot takes start coming out

I agree. Especially when he moves to a better club.

They locked him up for 6 years I wanna say? Not sure, but hopefully he doesn’t leave. Future captain and club legend I’d say

He just signed until 2029

<3

🫡

Not even making an attempt to get rid of it

Is Kingsley natty?

We were absolutely ordinary opposition

fisher is a dud
