Here's one: If we win one of the last 3 games for the year, we will finish the season having not lost 3 consecutive games at any point. We haven't done that since 1998, believe it or not.

1443 points against is also, by a very long way, the fewest points we've conceded in a 22-game season. The previous best was 2018, which was 1749. Also, not including last year's shortened g

Added "Win a final outside of Victoria".

why did you ignore my additions

nobody kicking a bag of 6 for 157 games straight is as big as any of them

says everything really

Really? I don't think it matters. We've had a few 5-goal bags.

Not on the list but the win on Sunday was our second in the last eleven matches versus the Bulldogs going back to March 2008.

And who can forget that second 90+ point belting in a row! The beginning of the end.

I'd like to add a record that I'd like to see broken.

Last time our leading goal kicker had 50+ goals was Brad Green in 2010. Since then we've had:

2011: Jurrah (40)

2012: Clark (29) (after 11 games)

2013: Howe (28)

2014: Dawes (20)

A slow decline, but obviously it is being turned around with Garlett and Hogan.

If Jesse plays every game at 2.6 per game he will hit that 50, which would be a magic feat for a first year player in a below average side

He'll need us to slaughter a couple of sides so he can get a couple of bags

Refreshed "Beat Collingwood" stat.

If we can't knock out "Win at Etihad" and "Beat St. Kilda" this weekend, I might just give up on this club.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    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
