Of all the Victorian teams only the dogs (9 games) have a worse record winning streak.

I think his point is that, the most depressing fact is that number should be 20, not 11. Considering we won the first 8 games of 1999.

It who shall not be named, was a fair game to end that streak on.

We were 1-4 in 99 were we not? Most of the teams were in the 17-20 game range, which is essentially a whole year of just dominating the competition where you don't even think losing is a possibility. Have we ever had that? I'm too young to remember.
 
* I hope we get some footy this year. Just got around to watching the videos, Rhyce is a gem. Simple, passionate messaging, draws on the clubs history rather than playing it down, and the players go out and look unstoppable post-rev up. We’ve cleared out any remaining Brad-ness (fwiw I thought Scott was a decent coach fro a period, and 2015 we were very bloody close. 2016 without injuries who knows). I want footy. *en pandemic.
 
RHYCE Shaw is going the extra mile to help guide his players through the shutdown with the North Melbourne coach completing the same fitness program as some of his charges.

Shaw, who played the last of his 237 career AFL games in 2015, believes the move helps him better understand the pressures his players are under as they prepare for the season restart in isolation.

I'm always thinking about the players' mindset and putting myself in their shoes because it's so important that we understand our athletes as best we can," Shaw told the club's website on Friday.

"The one thing I've been lucky enough to do is I've got one of the boys' programs from our strength-and-conditioning coach and I've been doing it every day.

But it's good to get a sense for what they're doing and how they're going.

"It has been a bit taxing, especially last week was a fairly big one for the boys, but it's good to see that the guys are still up and about."

Shaw has no inside information on when the season will get back underway, but his players have increased training loads recently in anticipation of an announcement.

The AFL had been hoping to release a return-to-play plan on Monday, April 27, but it is believed that announcement has been pushed back at least a week as the League seeks approval from relevant authorities.

I think the AFL are doing a fantastic job in that regard, they're taking their time and not making any rash decisions," Shaw said.

"I think they'll play it as they see it and when we do come back we'll be back for good."
