Plenty have lost four in a row. Four out of four losses in two years hasn't been done since they changed the finals format in 2000. Although Hawthorn went out in straight sets in 2016 and 2018 without making finals in 2017.
As an aside to the slur, I believe only a club genuinely committed to driving significant cultural change would self report that. I doubt that there'd be many other clubs who would do that knowing the fallout. If that's how it actually played out at least take solace in the fact that there's...
Was interested in this so thought I’d run the numbers and yeah it’s definitely not right!
Number of players taken in first round of national draft in past four years
Gold Coast 12
GWS 10
Carlton 7
Port 7
Fremantle 7
Bulldogs 5
Adelaide 5
Brisbane 5
Sydney 4
North 3
Geelong 3
St Kilda 3
Richmond...
I’m not sure how Cos Cardone can continue to be the CEO of McGuire Media and on the PAFC Board. He then meets with Eddie to do deals about our guernsey?! Seems entirely untenable and he should be removed from the Board.
It’s got the stink of an agency producing it under the guise of it being their “unique creative” and no one at the club twigging it was ripped off. Hard to believe the top brass at the club would sign off on that if they knew how similar it was to Liverpool, especially when the whole point of...
It is the official start of the AFL. Seems pretty relevant to me. I wish all stats were from 1990 on instead of worrying about how many consecutive games South Melbourne won at Lake Oval in comparison to Richmond's recent run at the MCG.
Very strong case for now being the best team of the AFL era.
Have won flags in three separate periods of success and have also made the most grand finals, won the most finals, and made finals the most times.

I know I'm not welcome here and this argument has already been won beyond all doubt but at 1.30am sometimes you just can't let something go.
So John, in 500 years from now when the Crows have had 25 7-0 starts, 84 6-1 starts, and 3 6-1-1 starts that would mean that 2018 was still the Crows'...
Good to hear Choco call them out on that earlier in the week.
"I’m not sure how he’s done this, having lived in Adelaide for a fair time, he (Hinkley) has the media eating out of his hand. It’s almost like they apologise for the question before they ask him."
This is where Rockliff's season has cost us big time. He was an absolute clearance beast at Brisbane but we got f-all from him in comparison. He should've freed Gray up to play forward but he didn't but we played Gray forward anyway. Disaster.
That was Matthew Pantelis, news director at Fiveaa, who asked about Walker confronting Pyke with player concerns and female staff being offended by CM.
No-one rates Westhoff hey. He can look a bit lazy at times but he definitely makes the 25 here. 200+ games, 200+ goals, and still actually on an AFL list unlike some of the spuds here.
For those thinking Walker made it up, here's what Jenkins said...
“He shook my hands and when we separated there was ham in my hand-- probably 25gms worth from the deli. I don’t think it was smoked. I wasn’t getting too close to it… I was going to throw up.”
Jenkins went down with food...
"7 plays in 7 days" being made up of about 50 plays, many barely related to one another despite being packaged up as part of the same number. Just pick seven separate moments you idiots.
Ken: "White's going back [to the SANFL] ... Whitey probably got in with a bit of luck because Paddy did something silly. Paddy was always coming back in and he [White] knew that."
Sounds like he set Whitey up to fail.
That's not always the case.
We won a premiership but weren't able to capitalise on it off the field, and were playing in front of 13k and in serious debt a few years later. However, without a premiership, our administration were able to make significant changes (Adelaide Oval move, realignment...
Isn't it slightly better than this because we didn't have pick 19 to begin with? We gained it in the trade period but then on-traded it so it can be forgotten entirely. I would adjust your analysis to...
We drop pick 9 to pick 14.
We lose 2017 first round pick but gain pick 17.
We lift pick 49...
My summary is we gave up next year's first round pick to upgrade 67 and 49 to 30 and 31.
Gotta be the most uninspiring way to use a top 10 pick of all time. Perhaps other than when we called out Andrew Moore's name.
