2003-2012 was close the most sucessful period ever

For this club...just been reading the stats on AFL tables and reading the wikipedia. The 80s isn't even mentioned in the wikipedia :oops: lol... Almost 10 years of sustained sucess minus a premiership but hey at least we are improving on that lowest winning percentage of any club still playing in th...

Re: 1966 Granny crowd figure 400 higher

Too think the city is twice the size now and still can't match those crowds. AFL crowds despite the propaganda have been dying as a percentage of population for a very long time.

What's that song they sing at the end after the GF win?

Paddy will end up a bigger joke than Jack Watts tbh, nothing to see here. Least Jack's got some skill old mate McCartin reminds me of Kepler Bradley.

Do we all consider Riewoldt better than J.Brown

Without the premierships he has been a far better player, for far longer. Jono Brown's one man stand domination games are more than what Nick could ever do in his prime but Roo is still playing like a star and J.Brown was close to being dropped before he retired.

Re: Saints home for Christmas- Moorabbin announcement

It's legitimately scary how almost all Victorian clubs need 'government cash' to stay afloat and are not even close to financially self dependent. SCARY for the future of the game tbh. TV rights is the cash cow but wowee soon it'll go digital and most likely cheaper...What's more 5 million is KILLIN...

Rewatching 09/10 tonight on the AFL marathon

I swear to god if Zac Dawson and Sam Gilbert's mistakes had not been out there we win both. Add in perhaps Clarke. Our stars could not of made a bigger effort to make this team great.

Re: What are the reasons behind the lower supporter base?

A historically low crowd and member return that spikes in times of good teams.





I honestly think this literally smacks on the head with a sledgehammer we are some 'dormant' huge power.

Re: What are the reasons behind the lower supporter base?

The Doggies pip us by 100 people a game. Considerring they are top 4 we can legitimately claim to be bigger than them IMO. The Roos beat us by 300 once again a better team than us. http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-premiership/richmond-crowds-up-10000-now-biggest-in-afl/story-e6frf3e3-122749052177...

I really want the old boys to leave for more draft picks even though I love them because without Roo & Montagna & Armo we are still wooden spooners and they are all older.

I can't say I am particularly for this because the root of the problem is mate it's gay round, it's kosher round, it's anything but straight white male with a family round despite making up 95% of the audience it just loses it's appeal basically.
