Come on mate, no chance. 10 goals at least.

Tom Morris on X

Rd 9, 2020: North Melbourne defeats Adelaide by 69 on the GC. Both teams were deep in a rebuild & committed to long-term plans, asking fans for patience.

Since then:
ADE: 51 wins, 65 losses, 1 draw
NM: 16 wins, 99 losses, 2 draws

ADE: 18th, 15th, 14th, 10th, 15th, 1st*

NM: 17th, 18th, 18th, 17th, 17th, 17th*

The Crows have nailed trade & draft (admittedly bigger challenges lay ahead).

The Roos have shown incremental improvement at best (despite AFL handouts).

No two rebuilds are identical, but the contrast between these relatively concurrent resets is stark.

Yep, at this point in time … but not a lot of practical difference before this year, both were going nowhere fast.

Time will tell how this year will pan out, just don’t be like Port in September. :D

Anyway, North should have relocated to Tas years ago … X_X

Yes, and they are justifiably proud of that.

Murphy, Jones and Burgess should be enough

Maybe throw in a third rounder too

Can’t see us getting him and if we do, who knows what package of picks and players it would take but you’d expect Saints would want a ready made running half back plus picks
