Now that we've won one, theres no need to be jealous and we can look back on those missed opportunities without getting bitter. So, on the back of the top 5 memories, thought I'd start a thread on the hardest opposition flags to swallow. The ones that hurt the most. My top 5 would be:
Hawks '91: 2 point loss in the semi and 15 pts in the prelim. I reckon we were a chance if we had another crack at the hawks.
Roos '96: After being getting so close in the preceding years and owning them, this one stung for mine;
Crows '97: That final. and then them sneaking in against the dogs (who we also owned at the time);
Bombers '93: We were so much better than them. Awesome in '92, pretty good in '91 and then, in the year when no one would have stood in our way, we flopped;
Swans '05: We had em. What else can I say? Not saying we would've won, but they shouldn't have either...
