The last time Collingwood beat us in a final was 43 years ago! Just how many omens can there be?

the saints have only played 44 finals in 100+ years. 18% are against collingwood - more than any other side:BaysideSaint wrote:nice. 5-3. and just eight (8) times
that surprises me. i am genuinely stunned by that figure of only playing just the eight times. thought it would have been a few more.

fair enough. it surprises me that we've only played 44 finals in about 110 years. that's 2 finals every five years! but at the same time, considering the lack of success over that time, i guess it's not that surprising.BaysideSaint wrote:not disputing the figures bergholt just surprised. i have my season record and it informs me that that is the case. just surprised that all.bergholt wrote:the saints have only played 44 finals in 100+ years. 18% are against collingwood - more than any other side:BaysideSaint wrote:nice. 5-3. and just eight (8) times
