1931

The stat actually seems pretty impressive. Also, as someone mentioned we probably haven't played them all twice in a season all that much recently. And when we did, with less teams if would be hard to make the finals without one of the other three.

Your avatar from 1931 too?

Would have played them all in every season up until 1987 at least I would have thought.

For many a year it was an 18 game season and a 12 team comp.

Poignant point.

If they had stats for backwards handballs, I'm sure we led the league several times. As for backwards handballs that missed the target and rolled invitingly into the opposition goal-square, well.................................................................................

Pretty hard to top Collingwood, Essendon or Carlton for that one. It's Malthouse's game plan originally, but plagiarised by Hird and Buckley.

Is 1931 the year Chris Newman was born?

No, the year he made his debut for us!
