Tigers in 2016 had made finals 3 of the 4 years prior
Cats in 2006 made a prelim the year before (missed GF by a kick)
Saints in 2009, were runners up??
Port similarly proven finalists over last 5 years.
Carlton haven't finished in the 8 for 10 years now.
And over the last 20 years we have competed in the finals 4 times for a total of 2 wins.
So why are you trying to compare us to the above teams? There is no similarity to be drawn.
Supporters have every right to be demanding better. Easily we have more right to be upset than any of the example teams you use above
Saints of 2019 not 2009. Did you pick them to make finals last year then fall out this year?
Demons, did you pick them top 2 this year?
Port misses finals for 2 years then makes it for 2 years, then rinse and repeat. The belief for many years were that they are front runners/down hill skiers
Tigers, lost every final they made, comfortably, sometimes there isn't much difference between 8th and 10th. Did you pick them to win a flag in 2017, and win 3 of the next 4? You and I have covered this already, do you think I would forget the next 10 times we discuss it?
