I want to give you a hug bro. Let’s linkThey really are a deluded species.
It's been great watching Carlton over the past 20 years. I reckon I've barracked FOR them more often than I've barracked against them. They've never been in the mix and the odd good win they have against a top 4/top 8/finals contending team is always to the benefit of Collingwood.

Agreedanything could happen.
It's scary but the path and pattern of tigers 2017 and 2019 premiership sides and cats 2007 and 2009 premiership teams. I have posted that before.Richmond's trajectory after 2016 is proof of that, no one saw that coming and if they did, then they'd have been solid proof that time travel is in fact real.
Sounds like Melbourne are dueIt's scary but the path and pattern of tigers 2017 and 2019 premiership sides and cats 2007 and 2009 premiership teams. I have posted that before.
Geelong started their build in 2000. Made finals in 2004-5, had a down year in 2006, nearly sacked bomber Thompson that year too.
In 2007, they Broke a 44 year drought vs a side from South Australia in port, without the crows stance. Looked unbeatable in 2008 as they finished top but choked in 2008. Had a point to prove and beat the saints in the 2009 grand final.
Tigers path started in 2010. Made finals in 2013-15. Had a down year in 2016, nearly sacked Damien Hardwick.
In 2017, tigers Break a 37 year drought vs a club in SA in the crows. Looked unbeatable In 2018, chokes In the preliminary final vs Magpies.
Came out with a point to prove in 2019 and beat GWS easily.
Maybe..... Could be Carlton or Essendon or even north for all I know. We won't find out until 2027. LoLSounds like Melbourne are due
Don't forget Bomber.essendon a shoe in now they've brought back sheeds. just need hirdy back and they could win the flag next year
You are certainly wise and fairOnly team on that whole list that could win the flag..... actually not win the flag but could make a grand final in 3-4 years is the saints.
Don't forget Bomber.
And Robinson, and Dank.
I'd laugh but.....essendon a shoe in now they've brought back sheeds. just need hirdy back and they could win the flag next year
Wayne Harmes.Obsessed.
What is it Fadgey? Where does the hurt come from?
Please don't get off topic, I don't see Collingwood mentioned anywhere in the thread title, and that is the second time you have mentioned them.

Realistically, any of the 18 teams in the comp can win a flag within 4 yearsThese are probably the biggest guess threads on Bigfooty. You could roll a dice and it would be just as accurate as all the collective predictions.
The issue is that being in finals now doesn't necessarily mean being closer to a flag. There is a long way between making finals and actually being a genuine flag threat in any given year, it's a big jump from also ran to winner.
I would say all of those clubs still lack a few of the established stars and proven core group to be considered a challenger. And just because St Kilda are the highest on the ladder now, doesn't mean that another club won't draft the next Martin or Bontempelli or Hodge or Franklin and a handful of other A graders that become stars in 3-5 years, trade/recruit well and come up with the right game plan and structure to execute it. It's a 3-5 year job and any of those teams could make that jump.
Richmond have 4 good years in 40 and look at em lip off like they are in it every year lolNot my fault Carlton haven't won a flag this millennium.
