It’s like the 2000s again! Not a single Melb team in the prelims! (lemmy.ml)

Instead we’ve the lions, power, swans and cats.

Who were premiers in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 respectively (with a cheeky eagles flag in 2006).

edit:

Or, to include repeats and losing the grand final:

The 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 07 & 09 premiers, and, the 04, 06, 07 & 08 runners up are in the prelims this year.

Not one GF in 9 years that didn’t have one of these four and only two that were win by another team.

There are some great stories in each of the teams remaining. I'd be happy with any of the 4. Well, Geelong can maybe wait a few years before their next chance, but any of the others.
