Great to see Essendon with no wins in finals, in fact 5,576 days since they won a final

So we are 1 Win, 4 Losses in the 9 years outside of 2016.

Not great. But infinitely better than Essendon! :D

Geelong - worst win ratio for any side who has won a final in that time.

Yep - but I'd rather be Geelong than any team in the bottom 10.
I'd be happy to lose a shitload of finals if it means a flag every decade.

TBH I don't think our 2016 occurs without the losing 2015 final either.

Umm. How are the Giants ahead of us when they have a worse winning % and no flags?

By the only metre I can make out winning % should be number 1 (really the only thing that you could measure it by) and that puts us equal third.

It's ordered by wins but no one measure is perfect.

Say we only played finals in 2016, won all finals and the flag and had a 100% winning percentage. That isn't better than a hypothetical team that played finals all 10 years and won every game bar the 2016 grand final to us. That team would have a winning % <100% but a boat load of wins and 9 flags.

I'd rather be us than them. We are Footscray, fly our premiership flags!

True that, it should come with an addiction warning.

There is no sucha thing as too much time spent on that feed!

After all someone goes to the trouble of compiling it so the least we can do is waste our lives enjoying it.
