Some of the stories you hear out there are heartbreaking.
Rene Kink played in 4 grand final losses with Collingwood. He had enough of that and moved to Essendon, where he played in another losing grand final in 83.
He did a knee in 1984, and wasn't a part of Essendon's back-to-back 84-85 flags.
Just on the 80's. As dominant as Hawthorn was, Carlton also won b2b premierships 81-82.
Carlton also saluted in 1979 and 1987. 4 premierships in 10 years.
Most of the Big 4 clubs were adding to their premiership tally's. Even Richmond managed a flag in that era.
Collingwood? Donuts.
