That would be too freaky if it comes to pass, but given all the coincidences and omens preceding last year's granny I wouldn't be surprised.
That's just one of a series of strange coincidences between the 1910s and the 2010s as follows:
1910 Collingwood premiers, 2010 Collingwood premiers
1911 Collingwood runner-up, 2011 Collingwood runner-up
1912 Swans runner-up, 2012 Swans premiers
1913 St. Kilda make first GF after 16 years but beaten soundly by Fitzroy, 2013 Fremantle make first GF after 18 years but Hawthorn win easily
1914 Swans runner-up, 2014 Swans runner-up
1915 Carlton win successive premierships, 2015 Hawthorn win successive premierships, also Carlton premiers 1915, last 2015
1916 Fitzroy finish 4th in 4 team competition but win all their finals and the premiership; 2016 Bulldogs finish 7th but win all finals and premiership
1917 Richmond win wooden spoon, 2017 Richmond win premiership
1918 Collingwood lose grand final by 5 points to Swans, 2018 Collingwood lose grand final by 5 points to Eagles
