I guess the fact that today's woodenspooners, let alone the premiers, would comfortably thrash the most dominant teams of the 1920s is a truism hardly worthy of discussion.yes apologies re simpleton, different poster, completely my bad
Yes I think modern day teams are far better than yesteryear's teams...it's just natural evolution...now if I used the words "best eva", ok there may have been a bit of mayo on that but the point is ppl do all sorts comparisons/ratings/opinions
saying that yesteryear's teams are "better" than modern day teams..and premiers in the 20s/30s/40s to...whatever are better than today's...in particular Richmond... a team of just plain ordinary roleplayers....what can i say but....ehhhhhh.
You really can only compare teams within their own eras. In the 20s those teams had no indigenous players, interstate players were rare as hen's teeth, training was maybe one day a week, strength and conditioning and nutrition were barely considered and definitely not in the scientific terms of today. I could go on but you get the drift.
