AFL Grand Final Premiership Tally.

[ShaunWCEFC]

Is Tasmania getting a team soon, I guess we'll have to restart the competition again in 2030.

 

[Juddernaut08]

A true tally of a team's greatness is how many grand finals you can participate in.

Winning one is just a bonus!

That's been our motto but replace "grand finals" with "games".

 

[PerthBoy86]

Post it up.

Yeah it's the most meaningful metric for sure.

 

[HTT]

Maybe do a tally from 1990....

Official fair tally (since 2012)
Hawthorn: 3
Richmond: 2
Sydney, West Coast, Western Bulldogs: 1
The rest: 0

I guess the hypothetical there is if you would count Fitzroy flags if the Bears had won a few as well. The Bears having won 0 makes it easier and cleaner to distinguish between (and combine) Fitzroy and Brisbane tallies. The Brisbane Lions can lay some claim to Fitzroy history, but given you have two competing clubs merging it feels awkward to say we inherit BOTH flag tallies.

The Brisbane Lions are the Brisbane Bears. 3 premierships.

Voss (1996), Akermanis (2001), Black (2002) and Neale (2020) are Brisbane's Brownlow Medallists.

Yep, that’s the way I prefer it anyway (I’ve been partial to Bris since Bears days).

 

[Roylion]

Yep, that’s the way I prefer it anyway (I’ve been partial to Bris since Bears days).

Well that's the reality. The Brisbane Bears and the Brisbane Lions are the same club. The Bears just rebranded at the end of 1996.

Yes, I’m aware of that. Some people just have a tendency to combine Roy & Bris tallies, which I was analysing.

Fitzroy is a separate club.

The lions are essentially the bears.

Wrong that is afl/vfl.

if you include vfl you need to include pre 1896 vfa flags.

What is the tally if you void all the premierships where, at any point in the year the premier fielded a player who:
- received remuneration outside any operating salary cap
- was recruited by fudging an address, junior club affiliation or zone
- joined the club due to inducements offered outside the usual payment process, eg from a sponsor or wealthy fan of the club
- joined a club due the promise of outside ambassadorships or future media work
- had, at any time in the previous three years been administered a banned substance

All premierships voided.

 

[sprockets]

How about flags minus wooden spoons?

Not saying we should count losses but saying theyve only won 1 in 124 years makes it seem worse than theyve actually been.

Eg the draw against Pies. Couldve gone either way.

But wooden spoons...

 

[CarnTheScray]

Brisbane and Fitzroy should be 11 combined

Fitzroy no longer exist.
