Ladder streaks - not in this position. Essendon hold a near unbeatable record for the longest period of time without occupying a certain ladder position. From Round 1 1934 to Round 2 1992 they failed to occupy 12th spot on the ladder - a combined total of 1109 rounds. The longest period of time not in 1st place on the ladder belongs to Sydney with 557 rounds from Round 2 1959 to Round 5 1986. Melbourne are currently more than half way to this total - they last occupied top spot in Round 3 2005, 337 rounds ago and need exactly another 10 seasons without sitting 1st to equal that record. --- Useless AFL Stats

    West Coast’s record without occupying bottom, or second bottom and throw in 15th while you’re at it, is in serious trouble when we smack them by 15 goals R1.:ph34r:

    Which would also sort our run for position 1/2 as well.

    BUMP

    A potential record not broken. To think we only got around half way off the longest streak NOT to occupy #1. 
     

    Feel a little sorry for those bloods supporters in the 60s, 70s and 80s. After last night, not so much for the bloods 2020s supporters...

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
