Now doesn’t everyone have a bit of a soft spot for the Kangaroos? Despite the dominating Carey years and everything that brought with it, I think most supporters still don’t mind seeing the North Melbourne boys notching up some wins and having a little success early on in 2014. After being so close in so many games last year, its kinda karma that they have started off this year so well.
Even ol’ Chief is happy about that - all except for one tiny detail.
Putrid Petrie.
Now don’t get me wrong, I love the big bullocking forward – seeing him rise up strongly in a pack and clunk a huge grab is one of the finest sights in football.

BUT IT HASN’T BEEN HAPPENING THIS YEAR HAS IT DREW! What the hell is going on mate? I mean, you seem like a nice bloke and all, but enough is enough! Do you know you started at $554,300 in Supercoach a mere month ago – yep, one of the elite selections for any SC forwardline. Do you know how much you’ve dropped Drewy? Do you even care? It feels like you don’t, it really does.
$140,000 mate – more than any other player in the entire AFL. That’s right, you’re now worth a paltry $414,300. That means you’re actually worth less than Matt DeBoer and Jason Winderlich. Ouch. And if, as expected, you don’t score 147 pts this week and lose money again, you’ll be close to Tyrone Vickery! Surely that’s enough to hang up the boots ol’ mate. The shame of it all…the shame.
It’s time to lift Drew. You’re team is on fire, and you suddenly have the skills of Beau Maister. Concentrate will ya? So far this year your scores have been far from impressive. You started off with a huge bang against the Bombers in round one, amassing an enormous 20 pts. You backed that up with 77 against the Bulldogs, then a massive 13 pts against Port, before striking back slightly last weekend with an 88 pt game against Sydney.
Those numbers are woeful Drew. They’re made even worse when we look back at your averages from the past SC years – 89 ppg from 21 games in 2006, 88 from 22 games in 2007, 91 from 22 games in 2009, 93 from 21 games in 2011, 95 from 22 games in 2012 and 103 from 21 games in 2013. WOW, they are some good numbers right there aren’t they? Where has that form gone?
Know what your average is this year mate? A pathetic 49.5 pts per game. And yeah, I added the .5 to make it look a little better. You’ve averaged 3.5 marks per game – that’s almost as bad as NicNat. Add to that only 3 goals for the season, and it’s clear you’re really struggling.
Its time Petrie – you know it is. Let’s see if you can get back on track this week against the Pies – after all, everyone hates them. It’s now or never my friend.
