that is one of the most ill-informed posts I have ever read. Pure garbage. Have you no idea about football history?
Essendon and Carlton are only rivals because of 1999 are they? Ummm, yeah right? Ha ha ha. We will just forget about their Grand Final match-ups in 1908, 47, 49, 62, 68, and 1993. We will just forget about Neale Danihers goal in the dying seconds in 1981 to give Essendon the game.
We will just forget about John Colemans 100th goal coming in the dying seconds of the 1949 Grand Final against Carlton. We will just forget about the 1968 Grand Final won by Carlton over Essendon by 3 points. We will just forget about the 1947 Grand Final, won by the Blues over the Bomber by one f*cking point.
I suppose when Essendon and Carlton met in the 1993 Grand Final, they weren't rivals then, eh? You idiot.
All three of Essendon, Colligwood and Carlton are huge rivals with each other. They are rivals because they have been the 3 most successful clubs, and they have been up at the top of the ladder with each other for most of the 105 years of the VFL-AFL. That's what makes a rivalry. If clubs are continually successful, and are always in the finals with each other, then the rivalry will be there.
Essendon and Collingwood, for example, have been traditional rivals going way back to their Grand Final match-ups in 1901, 1902, and 1911. When the 2 clubs met in 1990, they were still great rivals due to both clubs success, but incredibly it was the first Grand Final match-up since 1911. It re-ignited an already ancient rivalry.
You seriously have no idea about football mate. I know that Carlton vs Collingowod is huge. i admit it. But for you to say that Essendon vs Carlton only happened after 1999 shows how sad you are. You seriously know nothing about football if you think that. Essendon and Carlton are the 2 most successful clubs, and have played in 6 Grand Finals head-to-head. it didn't just happen in 1999, you idiot.
That would be like me claiming that Carlton vs Collingwood is only a rivalry due to 1970.
