Was it 2006?

If so, that is mind boggling.

Can someone look that up, I dont know where to look.

This is a good start:

win loss sequence

There's a sequence here too. The interval between recent wins is decreasing, viz. 6 games, 6, 5, 5.

So the next win is against Hawthorn in Round 9.

I always use AFL Tables and I think it is easily the best and easiest to search

That AFL Tables is fantastic!! I just spent time being a kid again. (amazing how many games you remember by looking at scores) Ahh the '70's six games on a saturday with a tranny & a biro. "Peanuts"

bit early to think about consecutive wins. one win sequences are pretty good at the moment.

Disagree.

We can beat Adelaide this weekend.

I want the playing group to win 2 on the trot.

Not to mention Pelaco Inquest, the Sporting Globe and World of Sport (but of course that would have been the 60s).

Too right! Would be a real blast for this club to win 2 on the trot. Set up a big crowd for the Geelong Game. Sign up members. Sell scarves etc etc.

I don't expect to beat the cats but i expect a better effort than last years disaster!

What would be interesting is to compare teams when they bottom out. If we can get two on the trot and clear up that record that would be nice, but I have a suspicion Carlton went a few years without putting two together.

Tell me about it. I was lucky to get my hands on the Globe. We used to get The Truth too, only for the from of course.

The ABC panel at 8pm was also good and why did they get rid of the Tony Charlton Channel 9 footy show at noon on sunday, the one that got the

Good point. I might look into it.

Carlton went 6 seasons with only 4 back to back wins counting 3 in a row as 2 instances.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
