I find it very puzzling that the club would talk about being in existence for 124 years yet say we've won 15 premierships, when we also won the 1896 VFA flag, in just our fifth season. By all means say we've won 15 VFL/AFL premierships but when talking about being around since 1892 the 1896 win should be included, since it was won in the best available competition at the time.

15 premierships in 124 years of memories. May there be many more to come #sidebyside pic.twitter.com/rih1W4AM9u
It should just be worded differently, I believe. 15 flags in the VFL/AFL (in 119 years), 124 years (playing at the highest possible level) for 16 flags.No because if you do that they will add SANFL flags. And Hawthorn will have more flags,
