Years since last premiership

How do you find the time to keep it up to date?

Is it any surprise given the amount of time that us losers spend on Bigfooty that it leads to such spreadsheet production?

That die will have uneven sides. There are so many factors in getting a good team together including luck and the team culture.

Hawthorn has -7 Armour Class

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

The lowest the aggregate can go is 153 if every team wins a flag in an 18 year cycle so really 153 should be your zero mark.

This didn't make sense until I multiplied 9 by two. Too many beers

No statistician. But I think droughts should be adjusted for number of teams in Comp. the dogs drought for example started when there were 12 teams. With fewer teams the drought was relatively worse.

As a side point Freos drought is not worth mentioning, been in the comp five minutes.

According to BF, since Buckley took over as coach of Collingwood, we've gone 74 years since we've played finals.

I'm not even prepared to admit how many AFL-related spreadsheets I keep!

That's pretty sad.






But you're welcome to share said spreadsheets at any time.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Well it has only been 2 since 1958 (1990 and 2010)

Only 4 since 1936 as well. Pretty crazy to think about considering how massive they are. Plenty of runners-up and finals meaning they've still kept winning their fair share of games throughout the years.

It certainly is

 

[footyfan1978]

1953 was a 12 club league. The 3 expansion clubs from VFA after 28 years since 1925 had still not won a flag and St.Kilda a foundation club of league still yet to win their first flag.
A flag to a club every 12 years in theory. Half the clubs over that and half less than that.

Geelong 1 year
Essendon 3 years
Melbourne 5 years
Carlton 6
Fitzroy 9
Richmond 10
Collingwood 17
South Melbourne 20
Hawthorn 28 years (0 flags)
North 28 years (0 flags)
Footscray 28 (0 flags)
St.Kilda 56 years (0 flags)

 

[footyfan1978]

Interesting thing is the last 10 orso years have seen 3 big droughts broken

Sydney (60+ years), Geelong (40), Dogs (60)

That is because it is an even league in general since the draft and salary cap era took effect. Some things skew the effects but in general it has worked like some form of football communism.

Only took about 3 or 4 years into salary cap era for it to start taking effect. Have a look at 1989 and think how many of the flags in just over 20 years had only been won by 4 clubs in the league. The other 8 that were all still there in that time period were on a drought. In the 1990's alone 7 different clubs from 1990 to 1997 won the flag. Football communism had won and was here to stay. It reduced the standard of what the best could be via spreading talent out amongst all the clubs to make it more even. So we lost the elite level but got a more even league and people would not notice the level of the best falling away to care.

The obvious question is what's better?
