Tale of the Tape: Demons in 2022

The article says, "Six months later they were holding up the premiership cup after breaking the second-longest active drought."

Wasn't our 57 years the longest active drought at the time? Or does he mean the second-longest active drought ever? Because that can't be right. Off the top of my head St Kilda waited 69 years (1897-1966) for their first flag and Sydney were 70+ years before they won in 2004.  And the Bulldogs were 62 years between their two premierships.

    Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story

    Cut the poor bloke some slack here.  Ronny might have seen a picture of the black and blue Port Adelaide jumper and thought that University were still in the competition.

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
