I know three who played for the Tigers. Ian Stewart, Stephen Rae, and Michael Malthouse. Luke Ball played in one for the Clutchpies. Val Perovic must have snuck one or two in there for the Blues. So there are 5 to start things off.
If Geelong win the flag this year

Not sure who the 22nd player is? Mark Hutchings was on the St Kilda list but never played
That team only finished ninth because one team was racking up wins while running rampant on drugs for part (all?) of the season.

Selective stats are fun aren't they?The most sobering stat since the end of 2011 is finals v teams who finished top 4(made a Prelim):
Geelong 1 win 14 losses.
The only win came in a 64 minute COVID shortened PF v Brisbane in 2020.
In 80 minute finals v teams finishing top 4 since 2011:
Geelong 0 wins 12 losses.
In other words the worst wooden spooner in history could not have achieved a worse win/loss ration in these full length games than Geelong has over that extended period. There isn’t a team who is obviously better than Geelong in the 2022 home and away season, so the Cats are going to have to draw on that wonderful experience of theirs of losing finals to teams who finish top 4 in order to avoid winning the 2022 flag. I am a big believer in Geelong’s ability to successfully choke this finals series under the tutelage of veteran finals choking head coach Chris “help me out here guys” Scott.
Since 2016, or the Dangerfield era, Geelong's elimination finals record when comparing to ladder position is this;
Finals vs teams that finished above them: 1-6 (sole win vs Brisbane in the 2020 PF)
Finals vs teams that finished below them: 5-1 (sole loss vs Richmond in the 2019 PF)

Yep and they can’t even get it done finishing minor premiers. No hope, might as well fold the club now.

Seems a tad premature, have you already got your 2022 tattoo?
“Dangerfield era.” That finals midget gets an era named after him at Geelong? How appropriate.
How confident are you that your figures are correct? At least my slective stats are accurate selective stats….

No, it's just an appropriate way to judge the team since there was a lot of roster turnover around the time Danger came to the Cats. If my stats are inaccurate I'll be happy to concede, but please do show me where I've gone wrong“Dangerfield era.” That finals midget gets an era named after him at Geelong? How appropriate.

edit: Cats are 4-1 (not 5-1) in elimination finals since 2016 against teams that finished below them on the ladder. My bad

I know it has Geelong in the title, Hawks and Tigers fans, but it's actually about the Saints.
Just buy a membership and get your dirty little secret out.

No, they're not. You've made a mistake.
s**t, that is the second error I have made. My hair was too long in some of my childhood photos.

Yes and you’re Richmond, your strike rate in exiting seasons a month before anyone was even getting ready to watch finals was equally funny and then suddenly it wasn’t because you came out and won 3 flags in 4 years.

I just realised I forgot about Jamie Cripps when making this thread. Oops.

I'm sure the Saints fans didn't
