If Geelong don't win the flag this year ...

[23.21.159]

Of the teams with a reasonable crack at the flag this year, if Geelong don't win it, that will be seven different premiers in seven years. First time that's happened ever. Previous record was six from 1963 to 1968.

At that rate we should pick one up by about 2019 at the latest. There is hope for us yet!

...the 'handbaggers' term might return.

I reckon the Saints will win.

If Geelong don't win the flag this year then it will be the biggest waste of talent ever. 1 flag in 3 years for that group would be shocking.

I honestly believe the loss at the weekend helped. Removes the weight of history from their shoulders.

Agree. It's the Paul Keating loss. They needed it otherwise nerves would've built on the players and coach throughout the finals.

I hope it's a Saints v Dogs GF.

Geelong will come good at the right time of the year.

We should start sounding their players out..

yeah 9 of the 16 teams have won flags in the past 11 years. just shows the draft/salary cap system works for most.

for most.

Agree without doubt.

The best GF senario for me would be Dogs v Coll, and back the Dogs the whole way!
