Bloody hell ‘shitforbrains’ don’t you have a public toilet to be loitering around somewhere?

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

And never will

The clubs board origibally wanted Smith to move aside the year before so they could instill the club's favourite son (Barassi) as coach in a succession plan. But then he ended up winning the flag. And still got dumped the following year.
Sounds familiar, doesn't it.

It does indeed, squibby

Let's compare notes in another 47 years

It has just been brought to my attention that Melbourne hold the dubious honour of the 2 largest losing margins in VFL/AFL history, both within the last 50 years... and their biggest loss was to the team someone (#frggr) suggested was actually the worst team of the last 50 years

Is anyone still in any doubt?

Why do we have 2 freemantles in the league. I’m all for 2 Natalie fyfes but it seems strange.

We're 6-0 Against top 8 sides, you settling in to the bottom of the table?

Someone is still overly bitter at losing 6 Premierships to Melbourne.

Who do you think would win in the new freo derby? Might be unfair if fyfe gets traded to freo

Depends. I’d back the Ross Lyon coached freeo.

Um... Congrats on losing to s**t teams

Which part of "the last half century" do you fail to understand?

 

[Pickitt]

I get what you're saying but holy s**t are you being a prick... You can't base a whole 50 years on a s**t period in the 2000s? I could say the same thing about collingwood... 1982, 1987, 1999 and 2005, all shite years for the colliwobbles

Man, you really are a n00b - in more ways than one

" They have met six times in Grand Finals, with Carlton successful five times to Collingwood's one"

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

And... what part of this do you think indicates the Dees aren't the worst AFL team of the last 50 years?

Just gonna leave this here for your reference:

Is there any team which has been sub-par for longer?

Have not won a flag since 1964, before most of their supporters were born
Not played in a GF for 20 seasons
Only won half a dozen finals this century
Had the least number of Brownlow votes ever by a team in season 2013
Have not won a Brownlow since 2000 and traded the guy who won it 2 years later while still continuing to pay half his salary
Supporters don't know their own players names or the rules
Dickteased their fans in 2018 only to finish 17th the next year
Did I mention tanking yet? Tanking

Currently sitting in 9th at 7-7 after losing to 15th placed Sydney, Melglum look poised to miss finals yet again

The pony jar runneth over and Cockstar has been drinking the contents.

Um... Congrats on losing to sh*t teams

Thankfully we don't have to worry about coming up against either side in finals.

Anything less than a GF appearance will be an epic fail for Melbourne in 2021

All you have to do is win as many finals as you have in the last 14 years to make it

Well our Grand Final bunnies won't be there, so the challenge level goes up.

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

You know who else won't be there? Anyone from your last premiership team

 

[Mr Blicavs]

And?

What is the relevance of this to Melbourne's last 50 years of fail?

I think weve already established that Melbourne has won more flags than Collingwood in the last 62 years, theyve also lost less Grand Finals than Collingwood, won more Brownlow medals than Collingwood, had more All Australian Representatives than Collingwood... I mean theyve got Collingwood covered by just about every measure

Shame the thread is about the last 50 years, when they haven't won any flags

Funny that a Geelol flog would list not losing GFs as an achievement when you're 3-7 in your last 10

You talk about history then try to confine the time period to suit your narrative... just face it, Melbourne >>>>>>>>>>Collinmgwood
