I was being sarcastic. North were diabolical and the spectre of joviality at the end of the game was beyond belief.

As usual I was highlighting the Roar's distorted view of the Eagles. My comments, from 'Atrocious..... .. AFL' were cut and paste from any number of comments about West Coast.

Take it easy- we lost to Sydney by a rather large margin last season...
Doctor Rotcod
Roar Rookie
A 70 point loss a good loss? Thinking it might have been of West Coast proportions makes them feel good? Doesn't anyone care enough to bag North for only kicking six goals? Atrocious, poor, bringing the competition into disrepute, hopeless, weak, feeble, and don't deserve their spot in the AFL. Bring in Subiaco or Norwood straightaway.

and going backwards by the looks of it?
Virgil
Roar Rookie
Well the North players seemed pretty pleased with themselves and the Lions players were obviously happy. So I am guessing at good game for all involved?
