We sort of turned it around with the arrival of Doc and Plugger and we dared to believe again.They were dark dark years VDS66.
The horror of horrors for me was the start of the 1985 season.
4 100 point beltings in the first 7 rounds....the first 3 games were 100 point beltings.
The first 2 games were both at Moorabbin......Syd belted us by 110...….Carlton by 140 the next week...….can't tell you how depressing it was standing at ground level in the Social Club watching that stuff.....it's seared into my memory.
That's why for me.....the years 2003 thru 2012 were something to savior.....I never took any win from that period for granted.
91-92 finals. 93 a ripping start and then as night turns to day we imploded over the Winmar mess... Until 97.
Talk about a boom-bust cycle...
