And you could’ve won 0 and you’d brush it off like water off a ducks back. It’s sad, PB himself has said it.
The best teams at NOT going back to back

I've never said anything of the sort. Regardless most successful team in your lifetime is Geelong, and for all the talk about premierships you've seen Geelong hoist the cup more often than your Tiggies. That's the source of the ring sting I bet.

Considering you won’t ever see a better Geelong team again that’s not something to be proud of. In fact it’s quite damning. You’re in the middle of a 40 year drought again and you don’t even know it.

Well we've won a flag more recently and have better prospects than Spud Road, so do tell what your crysal ball says about Richmond's drought.
Maths not your strong point? how can you be in the middle of a 40-year drought after 1 year? please explain

English not your strong suit? It’s pretty concerning that neither you or the other cats supporters liking your comment know “in the middle of” can also mean this…

Does that also mean you are in the middle of your next suspension or your multitude of accounts for the year?

Wait...did we stop being the most successful club of the modern era?
You guys only become relevant a couple years ago and you've gone back under your rock just as quickly as you appeared.
Imagine saying to the highest win % team that has won more than pretty much any other club for the past 30 years that they DON'T "care about flags" ??? Coming from a supporter of a club that has literally won less in the same time period??? HUH?
Can someone explain how that makes sense?

Yeah I would. Because ultimately who the f**k would scratch their eyes out over grown men chasing a little oval ball around a field like you do. Go and get yourself suspended again mate.
Fortunately I don’t really have to worry anyway because my team has been the best of the last quarter century and the second most successful of the entire AFL era so even if my life force WAS tied to it like yours is, it wouldn’t matter, but ultimately my outlook on life simply isn’t that pathetic.

This is the basis of his argument:
Because I’ve explained to him quite clearly numerous times that while I’m very happy to watch my club hoist trophies more than any other side apart from Hawthorn, the order in which we do it does not bother me as we don’t get a bigger trophy for doing it in any particular sequence, and he seems unable to deal with this: he has tried to tell me that there is a way you ‘HAVE’ to feel about winning.
So I pointed out to him that it’s a game played by people I don’t know for a prize I don’t get to be a part of or keep, and that I don’t contribute to in any way any whatsoever.
So at the end of the day, it doesn’t mean Jack shit anyway. Yes it’s fun and entertaining but it’s not like watching your son take their first step or something.
And he doesn’t seem to be able to let it go, even after yet another account gets suspended for a while.

Like I said you could’ve won zero and still been this arrogant.Wait...did we stop being the most successful club of the modern era?

Unfortunately for you, you won’t get to find out because we didn’t win zero and judging by your inability to get over it, you’ll keep coming back to piss and moan about it until you get yourself rubbed out again.
Thats a bit rich coming from you.

Shouldn’t be in the convo for one of “the best sides” though.
Averaged 9 goals across finals last year, and won through by a couple of kicks.
Maybe one of the worst premiership sides we’ve seen in the last 25 years.

Worst team who did NOT go back to back? Strapping Young Lad - you are rubbing salt into the wounds and it is most unbecoming of you

Interesting era in terms of NOT going back to back and how early season poor showings are relevant
Dare I say that the comp itself is going back to back in NOT going back to back quite well

Hawthorn 1983 to 87. 5 consecutive gf's didn't go back to back.
