1974 GF could have been Richmond V Hawthorn. Strange year with North having the wood over Hawthorn but unable to beat Richmond and Hawthorn having the wood against Richmond. Hawthorn lost the PF to North by 4 pts. The Richmond North GF was a fizzer. Richmond v Hawthorn GF would have been a beauty.Just as an aside, Hawthorn made the 1975 GF as well, so you can stretch that back another year. If you add Richmond into that mix you can then go back to 1969 and fill in that gap from 1982 as well, and I think 1980 would then be the only year that any of those three met each other in a Grand Final.
