After the spraying they got last night from Loveday you would hope they won.

Southern have been disappointing all season I think that it is time to look at next year for them.

not overly sure southern even turned up it wasn't a case of north playing that well it was more a case of southern were there in body but not in spirit

North played awesome... you cant try and turn this into a "Southern lost it, north didnt win it" crap.
Norths defense was switched on all night, they didnt give Southern a chance to get into any sort of form.

and who played for North?
Was it the youmg guns who can run for a full game and keep that defensive pressure up?
Well, well well

actually it was their senior starters that got them off to a great start 20 up at the half. Solid weekend from hawkes , McKay hambour and Zorich which got the Rockets off to great starts in both games. Pity the bench didnt come to play in the South game, scoring 6 points on 2 of 10 shooting.

loveday went to his bench early in the tigers game
youngster tom rowe came on and did a fantastic job of shutting down brad gerlach
was a complete team effort by all eleven players

All the young guys contributed against Southern, some good signs for the future you would think.

sounds like something you'd say if your team was going to miss the finals!

Firstly I would like to applaud Mike Mckay for hanging around after the game for a bite to eat. DC you give him a lot of crap but at least he shows true sportsmanship. What is it with the opposition and not hanging around for a drink and something to eat at Marion? Don't they like our food or something???

probably the company hanging around at Marion :) McKay shows true sportsmanship, only one who hangs around at m/vale too. Also when they lost the g/final v Eagles he was the only one who hung around on the court to see the eagles accept the trophy - much respect

yeh, respect to mike......i gotta say north have had 2 harsh losses at the cage the last 2 years, and he has hung around both times.....no sign of hamburgler or hawkes. sportsmanship goes a long way!!

Actually, Both Hambour and Hawkes stayed for the great meal provided at "the cage" this season.
Who wouldnt stay with the spread the Tigers offer!

He was probably just hanging around for the pies and pasties (reference to previous sponsorship in the 80s).
