Days Since Last Loss

Every day that passes is another day closer to our next loss.
Luckily the same can be said for Richmond.

 

6072   - Days since Essendon last won a final

Not relevant to this thread but it just makes me happy

Should be a part of every football conversation, really.

 

The best time to delete this post was immediately after posting it.

The second best time is now.

 

100% we lose on Saturday now.

(I do love the stat though. When was the last time Melbourne had the longest gap to its most recent loss?)

The doggies beat us in preseason. Caused a fair amount of angst and wrist slitting on DL as I recall.

I remember watching this game on a Monday night during a strict lockdown with an 8pm curfew and Dwayne Russell commentating.

Living the dream....

Our mission is to avoid the dreaded 21,000.

Gaaahhhh that is worse than Nat Jones games won vs lost record!

Oh my god. 21,000 would be sooo embarrassing 

I wonder what the longest days between AFL losses is.

Geelong won 23 games between Rd 12, 1952 and Rd 13, 1953 which spanned 378 days. 

However they also did not lose a game between Rd 9, 1952 and Rd 13, 1953 which spanned 399 days because they drew Rd 11, 1952. 

I’m not sure if we can count clubs that didn’t field teams during war years that may have won the last match they competed in before disbanding and then returning.

Not after a loss, surely not?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
