1992. First time I watched us in a Granny. Was our best chance to win one in that era by far. We looked on track, and it was heart breaking seeing it slip away to a team I didn't like at all.

Do many Cats fans have a sore spot for WC?
I'd like to get revenge on Hawthorn one day in a gf, but that day may never come.
Yes and for some reason whenever I watched the eagles play as a kid, I could smell rotting eggs.
I developed a really bizarre association, it’s so weird to think back on now haha.
‘92 was the worst.

Haha interesting...yeah it must've been tough to have lived through 89-95. The idea of losing both 05 and 06 seemed unthinkable at the time.
Yes, it was tough in the school grounds after all the GF losses, especially being one of the only Cats supporters at my school in the outer east of Melbourne. They gave it to me.
We weren't greedy. We just wanted 1.
Then these average clubs like Adelaide come from nowhere and win 2! It was truly like a knife in the heart.
More then hawthorn to be honest. despise the weagles.
i still occassionally get we're the eagles stuck in my head after the mental torture of that song walking out of 2 grand finals.
its worse then those lego movie songs. Can you guys please change it?

2004 obviously. Four in a row would have been immortality.
But if not our grand finals definitely 2010.

Geelong aside, I thought 2018 was one the biggest heartbreakers one could ever imagine. I felt genuine sadness for the Pies to have it stolen at the death like that, but what a kick!
As many others have said, Saints 09/10 was very very heartbreaking as well.

Seems to be a yes. I think it was more the frustration that you guys continually had our measure (throughout that whole period really), and not based on any real hatred of the club/supporters. At least that's how I look back on it now.

See you on the 9th green at 9
2016. I’ve never seen anything like that finals campaign. Both bizarre and amazing.

61 - was the start of things to come for Hawthorn, could have been Dogs 2nd
95 - Geelong had been the perennial bridesmaids for 6 seasons.
05 - WCE wins, Hall should have been suspended
12 - Would have given Hawthorn a (deserved?) 4-peat

Yeah no doubt, after the drought too. Well I'm sure your recent success makes up for it. Imagine being a Saints supporter.

Our song isn't the best but at least it's original...I hope they do change it back from the current version though.

Yeah fair enough. Crazy Gaz Snr never nabbed one despite being so good. Him and Carey were always spellbinding to watch...Ablett probably was more theatrical/spectacular.

As an Eagles fan I hope our next GF isn't close. Having 3 of our last 4 decided by under a goal isn't easy on the heart!

At least you know how we feel having to hear the Birds of Tokyo rendition. The only positive of the last two years has been hearing it less.

1984. Only time we’ve coughed up a 3/4 time lead and lost in a GF. Still makes me puke.
