Thanks. So, if NM win the GF and Harvey plays, he will earn the record by a significant period of time (i.e. four or five years). That would be incredible.
What is the longest period between flags for a player?
If NM win this year, it will be 16 years between flags (1999 and 2016) for Harvey. And at the same club! That must be a record.

It's not a full rebuild of the list, but at the very least a partial rebuild. I was staggered to see that there was such a high...
We often hear that a club's list is "rebuilding" towards a premiership. The best case in point at the moment is a Richmond, North Melbourne or Melbourne. Or if you look back only a year or two, Carlton. Every club, at some point or another, has been in premiership rebuild mode. The clubs tend to...
