I'm still not convinced by all this North-bashing.
I mean, the guy is very experienced not only at a-league but at international level, he's won a championship before with the same defensive partner he's currently with, and he's still only been here a few weeks.
Admittedly, I'm going on reputation here, but he seems like a pretty high calibre player, I mean, we're talking about the A-league here.
I don't understand benching him for someone like Hearfield and I sure as hell don't understand why we would just let a player like that walk away.
Imo if Ricki can't find a place for him to fit in the starting 11 it says a bit about his coaching, not just North's form. To be fair, North has been average thus far, but I think someone should be asking questions of both him and Ricki.
Right. Rant over
