That number 7 pick was the sub last week. You really think he is the difference?

Freo get all their home finals at their home ground. Why would you bring up freo? And gws have had home finals. And this is despite the fact they are a sydney team. Geelong remains the greatest disadvanataged team in world sport. All our home finals should be in geelong. All our home games...

I like it how this thread was started in the year geelong won a flag. holmes and dekonning are looking pretty good. Clark with good early signs.

Have people forgotten what bay 13 is for? This thread is already there.

You mean the one grand final which you bradburied cos we didnt kick straight and you guys played the man. Thats not a flag i would bring up if I was a hawthorn supporter.

You beat an interstate side that had been below its best in recent weeks when geelong plays interstate sides in grand finals in the modern era we have an average winning margin of 100 points. Your 63 point margin pales in comparison.

Suggests to me your mate isnt much of a supporter. everyone i knew was effing glued to the screen all match.

Yes a bad cricket pitch is why football cant be played there? the logic is fool proof :think:

I know but thats enough to get him in given how good a player he was.

Rance? I would have him ahead of gibson, leppitsch and taylor.

Lol your ignoring the fact that in 2017-2021 we played a crappy keeping off game that would not stand up in finals. we abandoned that in 2022. Oh and we had cameron. Werent relying on solely hawkins in the big foward department like we were in 2017-20.

You mean the pies team that finshed the season with a whooping 160 percentage and only lost to one team for the entire season???? the tigers 2020 were 20 points down in the grand final against a quite ordinary geelong side. there is a chasm between the 2010 pies side and the 2020 tigers side...

Burgoyne wasnt flawless. He could not shake a tag and had to become a defender as a result. Was absolutely towelled up in the 07 grand final in what was probably his best individual season. Bartel never had such a problem. and bartel was a big game player. Probably even more so then burgoyne.

Mick malthouse is the father of west coast and everything they stand for. He changed the way football was played. he was an evil genius at west coast. Malthouse was an old fuddy duddy at collingwood. snuck home with a flag. Just.

Clearly west coast. This shouldnt even be a debateable topic.

Covid today isnt the same covid as in 2020-21. it doesnt warrant the same measures. While lots of people are getting sick the numbers in hospitals are quite low.

Tell that to hawks, tigers and collingwood supporters. Oh please tell them this.

Not far behind? home and away performance: brisbane 2002: wins 17 loses 5 percentage 136 Brisbane 2003: wins 14 loses 7 draw 1 percentage 121 Geelong 2011: wins 19 loses 3 percentage 157. geelong also had the superior finals series winning all finals by more then 5 goals while brisbane lost a...

Losing a grand final doesnt make you s**t.

Saints werent the best team in 2009. At best they were the equal best team. Geelong won the first 13 games straight that season and then cruised towards finals Resting gun players regularly in the last 7 rounds having sown up top 2. as for 2010 there were 3 teams largely all equal. Geelong and...

As for other teams i think saints probably deserved 2010.

95 grand final. Blues flag should be wiped and given to geelong

Pendles hasnt gone past anyone. He aint in top 10 mids. Pendles was never good enough to be the best mid in the game. he just never reached that level. As such he is behind ablett, judd, dangerfield, fyfe, hird, voss, martin, r.harvey, bontempelli and probably oliver, cripps and petracca...

Anyone who may of realised martin played 22 games vs franklins 14.

pendlebury is the simon black of this era. a player who never quite made it to being the best mid in the game but had longevity and for some reason people confuse it with ability. ablett, fyfe, judd, danger, martin all had periods where they were considered the games clear best mid...

A player with 30 less games then pendlbury and harvey And whose average disposal count was reduced by the fact he spent his first 6 seasons as a foward pocket unlike pendlebury who was always a mid. abletts greatness isnt driven by his total disposals over his career. Its driven by other...

you get brent harvey is third right? Brent harvey wasnt even the best mid in his own team. this stat is just for the players who played the most games and is not indicative of how great they were.

Im sorry but pendelburry is not on the same level as danger, martin, fyfe. pendleburry is the next level below with selwood. And personally i would take selwood when both fit.

Obviously if the game goes global then essendons 1993 flag vs carlton shouldnt compare with new yorks loss to ulaanbaatar in the 2076 world australian rules grand final. but going global is the only equivalent to the change from vfl to afl.

My thinking too. The 89 grand final was the finale to the vfl.
