Richmond and Brissy sitting fairly low but both have won 4 flags between them as opposed to Saints, Freo, North & Crows

Posted

We could win all 22 games next season and still be in 15th place.

Yup, its been a rough start to the century but the tide is turning.

surprised to see WC so low.

We had some good years, particular 2000, 2002 and 2006. Not enough though. 

I've said it once and I'll say it again..Melbourne supporters deserve a bronze statue out the front of the MCG.

Now you know why SWYL gets angry at this club from time to time. 

This list doesn’t include the 42 years previous, where we would still be down in the dark....

I even gave cats 1 less flag to make it look better! Just goes to show that it’s an awful past back to 65. Only made the finals 6 times outside of Daniher years. Let’s hope we build something special like the hawks and cats did. Exciting times ahead

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
