Days Since Last Loss

[Demonland 72,208]

Just in case ...

Oh struth, did you have to? 

[Chook 15,013]

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

Way to jinx us!

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.

I thought I would bring it up now just in case this great stat is moot. If we are really going to believe in jinxes then perhaps we need to call in an exorcist and exorcise our demons.

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.

20,667 days. 

Our mission is to avoid the dreaded 21,000.

Hopefully we can trot this sign out.

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

Living the dream....

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?
