Catltons daydreams for '18 just went out the window.
Cannot think of 1 player they would have rather NOT lost.
i think i remember reading when we won our first game it shut down St Kilda such was the celebrationsToday I Learned that St Kilda 'won' the wooden spoon for the first 6 years after joining the VFL in 1897, and did not win a game until it's fourth season.

One of the periods of our club's history which most interests me is the transition point from the period detailed above to when we started winning games and upping our standard to a level closer to our competitors: what was the catalyst?
Was it simply that our players were good but lacked experience, a la most expansion clubs?
Were our facilities or training methods changed, or did the players take it more seriously?
Or was there a player or players who came in and was so good that he single handedly dragged the team back into games, so good that he made the players around him better and inspired his teammates to lift their game?
I'd really appreciate a nod in the direction of that particular information, if anyone knows.
Seriously though, is there a relationship between Gordon and Patrick Dangerfield, or even Harry, Jay and Jake Lever?
And to think that we could have recruited Patrick Dangerfield under the great great grandfather / great great grandson rule if they didn't change it.
Bloody AFL screwing us for over 100 year's!
