Did someone mess up the lineups back in the day on GF week as well, who would ever do such a thing.
Whoever has done that must be a really stupid idiot for not getting the lineup correctly and getting the positions wrong

That grand final in 1999 was bonus territory for us i think after beating the Bombers the previous week.
It's crazy to think that we both haven't been in one since! There's still time for the Blues to come good though, and the Roos did show some improvement this year i think.

He failed to mention that we have a fair few more premiership cups in our trophy cabinet.
Who knows mate we might have another Blues v Roos grand final in the coming years.

I think so too mate. It would be nice to get a bit of revenge for that defeat as well. Cork did win an all Ireland that year in the hurling though.
You win some mate and you lose some as well i suppose. 1999 was a great year for you as well Dingster with Manchester United winning the treble that year, and of course the Roos aforementioned grand final win as well!

Blues were never supposed to be in that GF, that one point win over the Bombers in the prelim is edged in history

I heard John Elliott went into overdrive stirring the shit with the Bombers in the build up to that game!
You something mate he wasn't perfect but he was a character and he loved his Blues as well.
It's just too bad he couldn't step down and hand the reigns over to someone else, before causing harm to the club with his poor decisions.
The AFL were out for our blood as well but it's all history now thankfully. Better days for Carlton are just around the corner.

Oh the stones have been collected mate and they will be fired back at the opportune moment!
My advice to non Blues fans is run for cover and hide when we do win that flag.

Yeah that time we had Mick Martyn running around in a Blues guernsey was our lowest ebb as a club i think!
A legend of a player at the Roos though. They could easily have won another flag or two in the 90's as well.

They should have beaten the Crows in 1998 - kicking 2:11 in the second quarter didn't help.
