North Melbourne won a flag in 75 I think after starting 0-3. We have Brisbane next week though, in Brisbane, so we could be 0-4. But if Carlton could turn it around last year and miss the gf by a kick, so can we.

Beat Brisvegas as Blues did, and who knows. ? I have always believed that there comes a time, when a team cops so much shit, crap, from media and the haters, who are out now in force and then a side hits back hard. Ive seen it happen many times.

Should hear the crap Naicos is copping, they couldn’t wait to get the knives out and brag about how one soft tackle has been viewed 19000 times and a missed uncontested ball get was viewed 20000 times on social media

Fair enough too. The hype over Naicos has been over the top. FFS, ranking his first 49 games is a wankfest of the highest order.

His tackle was weak so good that this is being highlighted. Something he needs to address. He also needs to know that there are times he has to put his body on the line. The greats just know when they need to take a wallop.

Oh we are going to make history alright if we lose this week.
In the history of the VFL/AFL only 1 defending premier has started the following season 0-4……
Anyone care to guess who it was?
That’s right COLLINGWOOD in 1959 (actually started 0-5) but recovered to finish 3rd with a 12-6 record and lost 1st week of finals.
More recently Sydney started 1-3 in 2006 and recovered to make top 4 but lost the Granny by a point.

Trip to Brissie is perfect for us. Backs against the wall massive underdog expected to lose. That’s our bread and butter.
Buon Giorno
