First club to 17 premierships?

Jesus whats Peter done? You’re a hard man

He’s just jealous, as he’s overtaken Danehill as the countries best ever Sire.

 

[Meteoric Rise]

Well seems though you seem to be a percentage man. Nick Daicos is 1 from 1 at 100%

He did a please don't tackle me handball in the last 5 minutes of a tight Grand Final. First player I have ever seen that was scared of body contact in those circumstances. It was magnificent to watch.

Danehill's progenies had smaller noses than Josh Daicos too.

 

[Monco Matt]

There are only two problems I can see with that.

You have to make the Grand Final. Over the last 42 years Collingwood has managed to do that 7 times. So they would be a 1 in 6 chance to make the Grand Final. 16.66% chance.

AND

They have to win the Grand Final. Over the last 65 years Collingwood has managed to achieve that twice from 15 attempts. 13.33% chance.

Because Collingwood need to both make the Grand Final AND win the Grand Final this year to make your prediction dream come true, we multiply the 2 factors to arrive at the real chance of it happening.

2.22% possibility I am afraid Monco. Hey, that's better than nothing.

Party pooper!!

Same sword length too.

Surely you don’t mean the one to DeGoey in mid air?

“The Handball of God”

Bingo. Except it didn't go to Degoey, the latter had to stop and turn around to collect it because Nikos was too scared to take a tackle and get the direction of the handball right.

Agreed. I actually think that should be counted as a clanger. Terribly forgettable moment in the GF

Memorable if you are a Daicos despiser.

That’d be like asking you to take down the Dusty poster on your bedroom ceiling.. Not plausible for us

Poster?

Mural mate.

 

[Taper]

Seems you enjoy being a narcissist. Good for you, you must be winning in life.

And FWIW our Trophy cabinet is bigger and shinier then Richmonds.

True, but which club has the greater supporter base? Collingwood or Richmond?

Tigers fans came rushing into this thread because they thought it said first club to 17th

That's the funniest Richmond related sledge you've ever come up with SOTY, well done.

But even us dumb Richmond supporters can figure out someone beat us to 17th....

Pies even beat Richmond at that!

(Though Carlton beat all comers, and even went a step better. On multiple occasions).

What are you defining as greater ?

 

[Retzlaff]

Freo making a late charge

 

[Taper]

What are you defining as greater ?

Greater as in which club has more supporters?

 

[beerbandit]

Greater as in which club has more supporters?

At a guess, I’d say it’s Collingwood.

But it’s a guess and doesn’t really faze me like it would and does some.

 

[Carringbush2010]

is this like real 17 premierships or including the ones they handed out back when there were like four teams playing?

Yeah that's not the vfl

 

[Cleansweep17]

Greater as in which club has more supporters?

Collingwood but it’s unfair to compare.

They are the only supporter base that have that extra disposable income from saving money from avoiding the dentist to by memberships.

Fewer teeth than all other clubs combined.

 

[Fadge]

Trying to work this out logically...

Of course supporters of a single team would have fewer teeth than the combined number of teeth of supporters of the 17 other clubs.

But at least you got a laugh from Falcon...
