How can’t you?I mean how can you say a Premiership side is weak or not until you see how they perform over the next couple of years? Are they weak or are they just still underrated?
I might be a bit salty (despite only being 1 and thus having not watched that game but more premierships) over this but I was reading about this the other day. How the **** did they make it past week 1? Lost the first final from 5th and still went through. Makes no sense
Are you looking for Richmond as the answer?This article got me thinking about who the weakest premiers there have been during my time.

Which team would you rate as the absolute weakest and why?
The old final series was flawed but people only complain about 98 Crows because they won the whole thing (playing 5 away games straight in the process )
Everyone brings this series up as to why the finals changed, but then ignore Carlton 1999! I wonder why that is? The main difference being Carlton lost the GF but the fact they got there is a bigger indictment than the 98 Crows
Bulldogs 2016
Not that it matters however you'd have to go with Richmond
Wow I'm surprised at this!!
Hahaha such a sad little life you just have
I'm sorry but compared to the calibre of the others it's true.
Richmond aren't far behind but they do have an elite mid in Dusty.
Bulldogs smashed other sides all year in the free kick differential.
Even worse than West Coast when they were ducking all the time.
Also in the prelim and grand final you got very favourable umpiring.
20 to 8 frees in a GF is ridiculous.
Not just those but the ones not paid to the Swans in a 23 pt win.
I hope none of those away games were at the mcgThe old final series was flawed but people only complain about 98 Crows because they won the whole thing (playing 5 away games straight in the process )

Finished 6th - lost by 12 goals to Brisbane - semi final against West Coastat the MCG even though Eagles finished 5th and won their first final
Essendon 1996 also exploited the old final system to get within 1 Tony Lockett behind from a GF -
Never hear about those two teams do we?
I had some Melbourne supporting muppett last week complain about 98 QF to me by saying Crows played Geelong in Adelaide the next week!!?? What the fuxk?
Out of all the inconsistencies and unlevel playing fields that the AFL finals system produces, you gotta pick on the team that played five consecutive away games on their way to back to back, yeah?
Further to that the two seasons get erroneously conflated together to the point everyone forgets Adelaide 97 was the FIRST team to win 4 finals in a single series to win the flag
