1999 may have been a bigger upset in terms of likelihood of the underdog winning, but not only for Collingwood to win, but to thrash Richmond on the ground they won 24 straight matches on so convincingly?

Bombers kicked themselves out of it, Richmond been embarrassed as a raging premiership favouriteBombers were 6 goal favorites on the TAB in 1999.
Tonight’s line was about 18pts with the Tigers the favourites.
Yep, bombers fans all of a sudden feeling a lot better they've been overtakenThe fact that it still burns you so bad after 19 years that you made this thread kind of gives you your answer doesn’t it?

Carlton in 99 was a 2nd tier team upsetting one of the best ever.
Saying tonight was an upset that big is disrepectful to collingwood.
Richmond 2018 are not as good as Essendon 99 and Coll 2018 are far better than carlton 99

They weren't one of the best ever. They'd had a pretty good year coming from 9th. Had Lucas and Hird out, hadn't won anything yet.Carlton in 99 was a 2nd tier team upsetting one of the best ever.

I remember everyone thinking the hawks were in with a good shot in 08.This is the biggest upset I’ve seen since the 08 GF. Nothing else comes close.
Can't remember Essendon ever doing it.Besides Richmond- who have been some other teams that have dominated the whole season and them choked on a big one during the prelim. I seem to remember port doing it a few times on the early 00s. Who else has some nominations ?
