Set to make history
We are now set to make more history. Since the final 8 has been implemented:
- No side 8-3 at half have missed finals
- No side 5-1 at start of the season has missed finals.
Granted in the past there was some integrity in the FIXture - playing everyone once before double ups but still.
- No side 8-3 at half have missed finals

Re: Set to make history
Maybe if we stop playing our listed players at the sh1tshow which is Sandringham we might have a chance.

Re: Set to make history
I said to a mate at the bye that we were guaranteed to make finals at 8-3, oh how silly I was!

Re: Set to make history
I pi$$ed off my missus greatly when sometime during the bye I said something like, "Don't count on me coming with you to your friend's
wedding (on a September Saturday), I'll be watching the Saints win a final instead. I'll be having more fun than you. Blah blah."
Famous last words, and in the $hit for nothing.
Thanks Saints.

Re: Set to make history
Essendon in 2012 were 8-1 and ended up 3 wins outside of the 8 so that's not true.older saint wrote: ↑Sun 10 Jul 2022 3:12pm We are now set to make more history. Since the final 8 has been implemented:

Re: Set to make history
If you count Shitney/ South Melbourne & Brisbane/Fitzroy we are the only VFL/AFL club that hasn't won a flag in over 50 years & not likely to do in the foreseeable future that's a history lesson we all should be ashamed of ![😢](//cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/twitter/twemoji@latest/assets/svg/1f622.svg)
