Telling a compelling story in one hour is hard, so they inevitably have to omit things, even important things. It's a documentary about a premiership. It doesn't need a detailed breakdown of how s**t we were away from home, to create a better sense of completeness for people sitting on their couches in Geelong.
Where I live and the club I support has nothing to do with this thread. Taking potshots to close out an otherwise reasonable post suggests that you're not interested in a mature discussion, in which case you might prefer to discuss the documentary on the Adelaide board, where you're not as likely to get the opinions of opposition supporters.
I actually checked as I was watching after the other poster's response to my original post was that it was meant to be about 1997. The documentary finally gets to 1997 33 minutes in. If they were so strapped for time, why not just start there? Personally, I would have made it 60 minutes plus commercials (rather than 60 including commercials) and given a brief summary of each year, from 1991-96, which would have maybe taken up 10 minutes.
