because they ran into a star studded Lions outfit
The circa 2000 Bombers couldn’t beat one triple flag winning team nor get near them in a final….but according to Fudge they would be walk all over another triple flag winning team nobody else was able to even compete with in 3 Grand Finals.
For some weird reason I have a begrudging soft spot for Collingwood supporters, but fmd, they have had to seriously warp their view of the world to make all their finals failures make some sense to them.
