How are our Essendon numbers?

[samuraisaint]

I think 8 or 9 out of the last 50 mate. And to think back in the 70s we used to beat em twice in a year sometimes.

Thought they might be ugly. Hawks numbers are surprisingly good.

And we all know they deserved a flag. But, flags are won on a fly kick in the last five minutes, a missed jumper pull in the last 20 minutes, a poster scored a goal for the opposition, and too many to count self inflicted missed opportunities. Then again, a fluke bounce a year later, could have made up for it. But it didn't (fluke bounce that is). We press on.

To be fair, we are 136-81-4 since the start of 2003. We should have good records against most sides.

We would have to be one of the best performed Clubs this Century - along with Geelong.

Brisbane have done ok.

[Old Mate]

The Bombers, Lions, Port, Swans, Eagles, Cats and Pies have something this century we don't. Premierships. We would be the best club NOT to win a premiership this century.

[samuraisaint]

Don't forget the Hawks - they got one too. Mind you, the way they're traveling I don't think they will get another one this year.

Every side that has played in a grand final since 2002 has won a premiership in the past 10 years except for 1 club. Wonder who??

02 Lions Pies
03 Lions Pies
04 Power Lions
05 Swans Eagles
06 Eagles Swans
07 Cats Power
08 Hawks Cats
09 Cats Saints
10 Pies Saints
11 Cats Pies

Depressing!
But a thought occured to me at half time in '09 GF.
How would we (supporters) handle a flag.
Not as though we have a template to follow, unless you count the filths reaction post 1990.

Aha! So it was you who jinxed us!
