Selwood "he fu**en dived" the sweet irony.

There is one, just one, reason why I won’t be supporting the Dees next week.

I just can’t imagine being the last one left on the dance floor. It’ll be absolutely heartbreaking.

He’s as reliable in finals as he is in his marriage

To be fair though I do a better job than him in bed with his wife, but he's still better than me on the footy field even when he gets 0 touches.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

I forgot that Henderson was still playing

 

[Murraj1966]

You guys seem really chirpy for supporters of a club on the way to be the only team with a drought in the VFL era

 

[Saint Watto]

It's raining goals now..........the widely held perception all this season within the footy world was that this was the Cat's last roll of the dice before the pending cliff.

There were times this year that you thought they may be able to pull it off.

This is dream come true stuff watching them implode.........thank you footy gods.....for once.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

What do Geelong do if half their list decides they are too old for this shit, and retire?

 

[gringo2011]

So jealous of Melbourne, but kind of pleased for them as well........ Maybe if I'm not a campaigner the footy gods will shine their light on me.

 

[Plugger35]

This is glorious.

The Dees and Gawn are deestroying the Cats.

Geelong finally reaching the cliff and Max Gawn looking like kicking more goals than Geelong. There's a lot to like despite us being a bit in no man's land.

I'm with you there Elvis........but the one thing that I console myself with to a degree over the years is that we had our chances....... twice.....but we blew it.

Still a very hard pill to swallow tho.

Hoping Melbourne spend the next 2 weeks drinking their own bath water before getting demolished by Port in the granny.

Or if Port dont make it, I'm hoping for a Covid outbreak or bomb threat to stop the grand final from ever being played.

Didn't want Melbourne to win, but seen an article about Neil Daniher and changed my mind

He is a Super star Neal Daniher, Need to make him Australian of the year while he is still here

 

[triggering bro]

Actually loving to see the Cats getting pumped

 

[JG22]

Cats absolutely finished, done.

Selwood embarrassed and finished you’d have to think.

 

[St Kilda Death]

Get out the cheese platters and the caviar

Adds to the narrative, last thing left for us to be burdened with

As if we weren't burdened with enough

Footy goods will send us Mids to lead us there.

And maybe a cult hero or 2

Dees winning next week after being the joke of the AFL for 20 years could prove anything can happen.
Should give saints fans hope!

 

[triggering bro]

Can see the Cats making a play for Seb Ross. Turns 29 next year right in their age bracket.

Since I've started watching footy, these teams have broken their droughts:

Sydney broke a 72 year drought in 2005
Footscray broke a 62 year drought in 2016
Fitzroy broke a 57 year drought in 2001 (if you count the Brisbane Lions)
Geelong broke a 44 year drought in 2007
Richmond broke a 37 year drought in 2017
Collingwood broke a 32 year drought in 1990

Current droughts then:

57 years: Melbourne
55 years: St Kilda
27 years: Fremantle
26 years: Carlton
23 years: Adelaide
22 years: North Melbourne
21 years: Essendon

I kinda want Melbourne to win this year because then surely we're next. Surely.
