Flawed logic there. So and so team beat this team by this much therefore this team is bad. At the end of the day all that matters is the 4 points. And considering we finished higher than you on the ladder, due to winning more games, many would consider us a better team. Not having a go, Carlton is my second team and I very much expect them to improve under Teague. As I said in my previous comment, nothing is impossible.Would you vote for the dogs?? Considering we beat you by 40+ under Bolton missing Docherty, Betts, Martin, Newnes, Setterfield and Charlie. Then we followed up with a 3 points loss without Docherty, Betts, Martin, Newnes, Silvagni and Jones. Do you expect us to get worse with Teague and 3 potential AA additions (2 already have achieved it).
Yeah, teams moving up and down the ladder from season to season is unheard of. I couldn't envisage any team in the 8th-5th tier leap-frogging the reigning premiers the following year. That has literally never happened in the AFL.They will also have to do quite a leapfrog to overtake the reigning premiers. They were a 5th to 8th team last year. Richmond, Geelong, Collingwood, GWS and Brisbane were all better than them. You could also argue the Bulldogs were in the back half of the season as well.
Exactly. 4 points each in 2019. See similar in our future in 2020. If not all 8 points going to Carlton. 6-5 final 11 puts us 8th. Which is coincidently where you finished in 2019. I’m predicting this is the year my team finishes higher than the dogs (my wife and fathers team).Flawed logic there. So and so team beat this team by this much therefore this team is bad.

In 1990 who would have said Collingwood, Adelaide or North would have won a premiership before the decade was out?
In 2000 who would have said Brisbane would win 3 in a row Geelong or Sydney, would have won premierships before the decade was out?
In 2010 who would have said Richmond would win 2, or Bulldogs salute before the decade was out?
On this pattern I predict Gold Coast to win at least 1, Tasmania to win another... even Carlton will probably win one, but unfortunately Essendon will go another 3,650 days without winning a final.
Of course it has happened. I’m not saying it’s impossible. I just said it’s unlikely. Lots of ground to make up on a very good football side.Yeah, teams moving up and down the ladder from season to season is unheard of.

If Melbourne don’t salute this decade that will be a lazy 66 years since their last flag . Unfortunately I can’t see it happening anytime soon. We might give the old South Melbourne/Swans record a fair shake. As for this decade I’d love the Saints to bag one, also another for the Dogs. Hope not to see much of the previous teams that have dominated the last 10-15 years, primarily due to my intense jealousy of them all.
The guys an absolute flog, it's as though WC ruined his life.Yeah, teams moving up and down the ladder from season to season is unheard of. I couldn't envisage any team in the 8th-5th tier leap-frogging the reigning premiers the following year. That has literally never happened in the AFL.
Not going to happen in 2020's. We going for a dynasty when this decade gets into full swing. Be lucky if 4 or 5 different clubs get premierships on our watch.In the 90’s 7 teams won a premiership – Collingwood, Hawthorn, West Coast, Essendon, Carlton, North and Adelaide.
In the 00’s 7 teams won a premiership – Essendon, Brisbane, Port, Sydney, West Coast, Geelong and Hawthorn.
In the 10’s 7 teams won a premiership – Collingwood, Geelong, Sydney, Hawthorn, Bulldogs, Richmond and West Coast.
Assuming this trend is to continue for the 20’s who are your predicted 7 premiers for the decade?
And who of the 7 will win multiples (either - 3 win 2 -- 1 wins 3 & 1 wins 2 -- 1 wins 4).
Yeah, but they were over 50 years without a flag as a club to that point.One thing is for certain...... Hawthorn will win at least one flag this decade.
They have won at least 1 flag in each decade since the 1960s.
1967 to 1983 spans 17 seasons.
Only 4 different clubs won the flags in that period.
1990 to 2007 spans 17 seasons too.
11 different clubs won premierships in that period.
Probably the two extremes of flags not shared out much to heaps of different clubs getting their time in the sun when league transitioned to salary cap era, draft era and national expansion in a big way.
Spot on. Good pick up.1990 to 2007 spans 18 seasons (NOT 17)
6-5 final 11 puts us 8th. Which is coincidently where you finished in 2019.
Leave Dr. Who aloneCannot help you with 2028, but I think Richmond might have won in 2019.
despite a decent list of kids, they have a lot of blokes aged 29 or overNot much love for Port Adelaide? They have a fabulous list of kids, plus a good mix of 100-150 game players and vets.
Obviously the coaching dept is their one main/obvious flaw, but under a new mentor and voice, Port could easily jet a flag in the next 7 years or so.
