Walley, Hammy and Sammy work through the many options available to the AFL as North Melbourne continue to wallow at the bottom of the ladder.

As a casual AFL viewer it's always surprised me regional Victoria doesn't have a team, for instance a team that covers both Ballarat and Bendigo. The NRL have teams in Wollongong, Newcastle and Townsville that cover large regional areas.

Why pick on North? Sure they’re having a bad trot - but in the past 20 years the following sides have also been woeful - Carlton / Melbourne / Richmond / Hawthorn / Eagles - all have bounced back given time. I don’t recall talk of knee jerk mergers / relocation/ expulsion of those teams at those times (& arguably their subsequent success was built off those lows). Treat the Roos with respect & be patient - as we were with the other teams.

How many of those teams knocked back 100 million to relocate and refused?? Jeez mate how many chances to you lot want?

I'm an Eagles man, but the injuries are starting to hit now (only Richmond has more injuries). Almost at tipping point. 4 guys out of the starting forward line. Yeo out injured too. All you need is another couple of midfielders and McGovern or Barrass and it will be back to 2023. Basically all the young defenders are out injured currently too, so there would be no one to come back for any defenders... We just need Allen Flynn and Waterman in as soon as possible. That will also allow Baily Williams to play as key forward and provide a target. So North vs Eagles is a winnable game for North.

They are knocking on heavens door. Nothing will improve and get worse when Tassie gets all the first round picks.

I think Gold Coast should win both matches against North. The Eagles are looking vulnerable because they are starting to cop injuries to key players, and they just don't have depth. Guys in like Ryan and Sheed are underdone big time.

North is a great club please don't get rid of them

Says who? They were a joke until Bob Ansett bought them in the 1970's and they have had one other good run when they got Carey and McKernan ... apart from that what have they done? 4/5 ths of fck all mate. Look at the Pies and Geelong, for the last 50 years they have been putting good sides on the park.. Sure, they've had the odd bad year, but usually they are near the top end of the ladder. If North had half a clue they would contact the people running those other clubs to get an idea of how it should be done.

North were offered ONE HUNDRED MILLION to move to the Gold Coast!! The deal was TEN MILLION per year for ten years ... on top of all the other stuff the AFL was going to do for them.. (top draft picks etc) that eventually went to the Suns. They knocked it back so for me, screw them. There are already too many teams in the comp.. Fitzroy and South Melbourne moved... So Norths option now is to move to Canberra or Regional Victoria or its adios muchachos!! Really, how many times does the league have to pander to one fckn club? Priority picks, etc, its never ending with these guys. ALL SELF INFLICTED!!

Hard to talk about moving a club when they are debt free and have brought so much to the game historically. The form in the last 5 is bad and this season might be some of the worst football ever played in the afl era but they have won more finals in the last 10 years than the bombers and potentially even the blues. I think you need to settle down.

@@jackkilian8497 Debt free, based on what? Playing games in Antarctica so they receive money from the Tasmanian govt? Hate to break it to you, but that gravy train is over. lets see how you now without that Tassie money. We will be having this same conversation in five years, North with their bowl out asking for more. The Bombers is not a fair comparison because they got raped by the AFL and WADA. Not a single player ever tested positive to a banned substance neither was anyone able to say what exactly it was they took....they got hung drawn and quartered for an allegation that was never substantiated. As for Carlton... 16 flags.
