Dutchy rightly heralds Norths on going profits, as meagre as they are at times it's a pretty remarkable effort from a club with such a low membership base, they rarely get 40,000 members so to keep turning a profit they must be frugal with their spending and that's now showing on field so it's to their own detriment you could say.

As opposed to another franchise i know who spends, spends, spends and then expects the SANFL previously and now the AFL to bail it out with a memebership base thats purely dependent on success and where its home ground is located. If only it had a loyal membership base like Nth Melb
