Harry,
I'll be your stats man on this one.
We finished top on 8 occasions;
1920, 33, 34, 43, 44, 67, 74, 82
Won the flag 4 of those years;
1920, 34, 67, 74
Can't believe we didn't win the flag in 82.
In 80 we finished 3rd after getting belted by Swans at lakeside oval. I remember going home in tears thinking we wouldn't win the flag!!

We won it 34 amid a scandal of South Melbourne players alledgedly 'throwing' the game too.
Bob Pratt was offered more than a years salary (during the depression too mind you) to 'lay down' for the game.
He refused the money,but swears his teamates played like they were 'got at' and the red hot favorites South were beaten,and their famed foreign legion effectively disbanded after the scandal was exposed.

We can one more step and list the VFA years thereby encompassing the entire 1885-Present years
We finish on top in 1902, 1903 , 1904
And we won the Premiership in each of those years apart from 1904 where we forfeited the flag.
We also came second on the ladder in 1907, 1906, 1905, 1901

I remember going to the Lakeside Oval too in 1980. The next week we were at Waverley and were lucky to see KB kick 6 against the Blues. He kicked 8 the next week against the Cats and then 7 in the Granny.... Probably the best Finals series by a small forward EVER....
