Not quite but: 1976 - Collingwood win the wooden spoon. The following year, they drew a Grand Final and was runner up in the replay (They lost).I wonder if a team has ever gone from being wooden spooner's one year to being premiers the next?
Exactly this. Bring on pick 1.Given we are playing Richmond in the final round, the choice will be taken from us...
South Adelaide Panthers 1964....oh you mean AFL?I wonder if a team has ever gone from being wooden spooner's one year to being premiers the next?
Yep a win would be fun but for me pick 1 is now the target.Shove pick 1 up your arse, I want to win
We may, who knows what they're thinking in terms of position or how they rate him.Not with two lumber jacks in key posts already in MCAsey and Himmelberg we won’t.
mate they lost by 66 points to the (then) 13th based team last week, in what was one of the most pathetic displays i have had the misfortune to watch in many yearsSo given we lose to Richmond and North Lose to WCE, even if we lose in a close game, WCE need to win by 80+ points. Not sure of the highest margin this year but I don't think it's 80+. Very unlikely that we don't win the spoon. Yipee
The imperative to avoid the spoon is silly old AFC mentality stuff that we need to get past. Premierships are all that matter. You're either taking steps towards your next premiership, or you're doing nothing.
We've been a club that's hung its hat on false accomplishments for too long. 'years making the finals' when we werent contending. Years without a wooden spoon. That's led to us being a club that really is only going to be thought about in terms of 'years since last premiership'.
Teams that are winning premierships don't think back with pain on their wooden spoons. Teams that don't win premierships don't feel good at the end of the day.
Us finishing last and Port finishing minor premiers will give them ammunition for years. 17th please.
