The next AFL dynasty

[BigVic]

Who will be the next AFL dynasty this century after Brisbane 2001-03, Hawthorn 2008-15, Geelong 2007-11 and Richmond 2017-20?

Carlton are likely IMO

Carlton are likely IMO

Yeah Carlton are prime to get a couple of flags over a 3 or 4 or 5 year period

Essendon are a chance too. Yes they havent won a final in 20 full seasons but they look like winning finals under Brad Scott.

It's usually not who you think it'll be.

 

[Blue1980]

It's usually not who you think it'll be.

By this logic, Geelong?

By this logic, Geelong?

No, by my logic it's anyone except Carlton.

 

[Billy ray]

SUNS 2026-2029. 4-peat

Port

 

[Cleansweep17]

North

They will have a best 23 of pick 1’s and get a 10peat

 

[Blue1980]

Just because you want something to happen, doesn’t mean it will.

Sadly, life and sport don’t work that way.

 

[Blue1980]

North

They will have a best 23 of pick 1’s and get a 10peat

They will have 40 something olds still playing who play for over 20 years?

 

[Better Loosen Up]

North

They will have a best 23 of pick 1’s and get a 10peat

Except we don't have a single pick 1 on our list...

 

[tiger_tough]

Impossible to pick one. Who would've suggested us at the end of 2016? Not even the biggest of nuffies.

By that sentiment it's gonna be a North dynasty lol

 

[Headless]

Dees looking good.

 

[Percel]

No one, the league will not allow it. Parity will ensure it won’t happen.

I think we are on the dawn of a dynasty right now - Collingwood

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

We'll worry about landing that first flag in almost thirty years for now, but we now go into games expecting to win.

It's been a long time since we've had that sort of confidence!

We have a serious chance of the flag this year, if we don't have to travel interstate in the finals imo.

There was no BigFooty, Facebook, or Twitter/X around when we last won a flag, so when we do hopefully break the drought all non Carlton fans lives are going to be a living hell!

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

Essendon are a chance too. Yes they havent won a final in 20 full seasons but they look like winning finals under Brad Scott.

I reckon the Bombers are nicely primed for the Brad Scott at the Roos special.

Good enough to be competitive, but not good enough to go all the way imo.

 

[Fadge]

What do you mean the next one?

We're currently living it.

 

[Frank Grimes]

To be honest there doesn't appear to be any team at this point looking a likely Dynasty side.

But then again a Dynasty side can just pop out of nowhere while sides predicted to be a Dynasty side when they win a flag ends up being one hit wonders ( Essendon 2000, Collingwood 2010 and Melbourne 2021).

 

[MF]

Looking at the age profiles of some of the teams that are currently doing well I reckon GWS are in a good position. I expect they'll be top 4 next year, if not this year.

Having said that the next dynasty is far more likely to be a Victorian club.

Sydney?

 

[kreuze_missile]

Carlton’s list profile is set up for a 5 year premiership run.

The best KPP duo since Franklin & Roughead.

You think I’m bad now? Just wait until we 5-peat.

 

[The 747]

Sydney?

Sydney are the best placed given the age of their players - I can't count Gold Coast.

But the way the competition is going, long term domination by any one team looks unlikely. A team may be able to consistently finish top 4 though.
