  • Demonland changed the title to 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.

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?

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
