No, you sealed it when you thought you were going to be FOTY, and carried on like you were proud and wanted to win.

Well I was meant to be working and had scheduled a time after work to pick it up.. however my current car has had more beltings than Richmond, Norf and West Coast combined and I’m still recovering from the whiplash I sustained in the last one back in June. And it didn’t like the 10 degree drop in temperature unfortunately!
On a related note, anybody who habitually uses their phone while driving can royally go **** themselves!

Nice melt
Statistically to not win a final in 20 years is roughly 0.00019816981 (or 1 in 5,046).

Today marks 20 years to the day since Essendon, a club which has won 16 premierships last won a finals match when they beat Melbourne 104 - 99 in an elimination final on the 4th of September 2004.
Since their last finals win, Essendon has been beaten in finals by Adelaide, Carlton, North Melbourne, Sydney, West Coast and the Western Bulldogs.
A slightly scarier fact came from BT who revealed during the Bombers loss to Sydney that Essendon hasn't won a final under a coach not named Kevin Sheedy since 1968.

A drought of finals wins: Essendon’s unwanted record turns 20 today
Essendon’s history is peppered with finals victories … until the last 20 years. The Bombers are lonely at the top of this unwanted ladder.
