Ridiculous thread. The only thing soft about Geelong's premiership was Port on grand final day. Good injury runs apply to any premiership team.
And anyone who says every other club was rebuilding in any year is ridiculous - Rebuilding is the stupidest buzzword in football. Hawthorn and St Kilda did it, Carlton doesn't look like stopping doing it, Port and Brisbane are making a mockery of the whole "bottoming out" philosophy, and pretty much every other team just rotated there list the old fashioned way, resulting in good and bad years along the way.
