What would you prefer?

[dean33]

A question to ponder, would you prefer your team won 1 premiership in the next decade but bottom 4 in the other 9 years, or top 4 for 10 years straight without ever saluting?

 

[Quivorir]

Well we're doing the s**t part now so I'll take the flag thanks.

 

[Milanista28]

[GeelongFTW]

Both lol.

Happy from 2023-2032 to win one flag and miss finals 9 out of 10 times. So happy to win a flag in 2025 or 2026.

Spend 2026 or 2027 not making finals until 2032.

Then from 2033-42, make top 4 for 10 years straight. As long as in 2033 there's 2-5 players from that 2025 or 2026 side left to hang around for freos next finals win in 2033 or 2034.

Go ask a Collingwood supporter. Those guys have only seen 2 flags in 60 years. Even North have seen more action than those supporters.

 

[Billy ray]

Both options sound dreamy

It's a crap question. The question should be would you prefer to have a 30% chance at a flag for 3 years if it meant being at the bottom for 7, or a 10% chance at a flag every year?

[My Tilly]

Flag without hesitation.

 

[Freomaniac]

To my saints mates. bird_man , aussierulesrules , joop projectv , StCicatriz , Murraj1966 , st_trav_ofWA , Plugger35 and Mat Mann, westie and MickG88 ....

What option would you want if Ross Lyon is coach for the next 10 years?

LoL

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Flag - why bother otherwise?

I want neither lol.

I am 35 years old. Been a dockers fan since my high school years.

I wanna be like Rupert Murdoch and make it to 92 years old LoL.

I wanna make it to 92 years old and not see the dockers men's or ladies side win a premiership LoL

 

[jakson68]

I would take top 4 for the decade.
Reason being, the other option gives me 1 year of joy (flag) and 9 years of misery (bottom 4)
Top 4 gives me 10 years of pleasure each year, if we make top 4 we have won many games and had a good year.

I wouldn't have 2 decades left in me but if i had a choice to be happy for two of those seasons and absolutely miserable for the other 18.
Or be preety pleased each season for the rest of my days, seeing my team bring me joy most weeks.

I will take the second options.

Lucky you barrack for the Pies then

 

[Danw0w]

A flag every 10 years is so far ahead of the curve its not even funny.

It's the obvious choice.

How about:


1) top 4 for 10 years straight with a flag in year 1 and a second flag in year 6

or

2) top 4 from years 1-5 with a 3peat in years 2-4 and then 5 years of missing finals & bottom 4


Both clubs finish 9th/10th for the next 5 years after that.


....1....4....3....4....4....1.....2....4.....3.....4.....9....10....9....10....10....
....3....1....1....1....2...13...15...14...15...16...10....9....10.....9.....9.....

 

[Rotayjay]

I'd take the premiership thanks. Finals finishes without a flag are just disappointments.

Why is this not the thread title?

 

[Headless]

The premiership without a single doubt.

Word limit.

I am!

People take the P155 but I haven't had many miserable years following the pies, as we are normally up there somewhere.

 

[STPer18]

Premierships and top 4 for a decade plus change without getting close to bottom 4 for me.
