You subtract some if it's your primary home ground though.do you get more premierships added to your tally if they come consecutively
If Danger wins one, is he considered better than Fyfe and Martin? Definently been the most consistent of the 3.
Re:bolded... would you rather take a medicine that works 60% of the time or a medicine that works 100% of the time.Achievement vs Quality.
No we haven't won 4 cups over 8 seasons.
As far as 3 in 3 or 3 in 5 goes, what the hell is the difference?
Does the singer with 3 #1s from the same album make more money than the band with 3 from 3 albums?
Does the third cup come full of gold bullion because it knows that the previous two cups were won by the same team?
Re:bolded... would you rather take a medicine that works 60% of the time or a medicine that works 100% of the time.
Would you rather pay 30% tax or 50% tax?
Whatever. One team won 3 in 3 and one team won 3 in 5. If you can’t see that the prior is a better achievement then you are blind.that is the worst analogy I’ve ever heard.
if the medicine fixes you, it fixes you - as both examples are teams who won 3 flags, the comparison would be to a medicine that works
Whatever. One team won 3 in 3 and one team won 3 in 5. If you can’t see that the prior is a better achievement then you are blind.
If that is all that separates two players, then yes.it’s the same achievement. What makes it better.
do we celebrate players who won 3 straight Wimbledons more than someone else who just won 3 Wimbledons
If that is all that separates two players, then yes.
immediately next year that’s going to drop a reasonable amount as Ablett and Taylor won’t go around again.
And while they will be missed they aren’t the irreplaceable types they would have been 7-8 years ago.
I think we have a few things to worry about. Age isn’t among them.
Ablett - 36
Taylor - 34
Selwood - 32
Hawkins - 32
Touhy - 30
Henderson - 30
Dangerfield - 30
Steven - 30
Stanley -29
Blicavs - 29
Duncan - 29
Rohan - 29
The names in the under 25 bracket aren’t even close to that
Scarlett a father son pick also. Some good breeding stock down at the cattery in the 70s and 80shelps when the best player in the comp falls in your lap.
Hawkins a father son pick.
Ablett father son.
Almost every flag over the last 20 years there's a leg up somewhere from AFL house
It’s not a common belief because no-one looks at just Wimbledon. They look all grand slams.What so it’s just common belief that Björn Borg has been a better Wimbledon player than Novak Djokovic because his 5 titles were consecutive.
ok
This comment goes to show you don’t have much idea about Geelong at all, “fade out’s” certainly aren’t our problem in any matches, especially big matches, it’s actually the start of matches, we have been a good finishing team for a long time, the only team better in recent years would be the Tigers....On the actual thread topic, I think all you can do as a club is to consistently try & give yourselves a chance at success, & if we fall short while Danger is here it wouldn’t of been through lack of trying...They’re hard to win & nobody has a given right to it, but I much rather our club’s effort to make finals year in & year out than to drop & become irrelevant at the bottom of the ladder.The pandemic has done wonders for Geelong's premiership chances. Shorter quarters helping their older players having less "fade out's" during games, setting up in the QLD hub - their home away from home (they seem to play the QLD grounds very well).
wtf? We were one of the last teams into the qld hub. We first had to go to sydney then spend 3 weeks in hard lockdown in perth. And since we came to the qld hub (4 weeks later then everyone else) we have since had to do a side trip to adelaide.The pandemic has done wonders for Geelong's premiership chances. Shorter quarters helping their older players having less "fade out's" during games, setting up in the QLD hub - their home away from home (they seem to play the QLD grounds very well).
This will be the year that they finally win one, it won't undo the years of missed opportunity. But it'll be the exclamation mark for a lot of their older stars that are retiring this season, or in the next few years.
