Carlton fan:
Took you 40 years to in how many flags we won just in the 80s 4 great seasons in 40 years
Eagles supporters:
I ask because the record shows that the Gabba is basically your home away from home, so it‘s blatantly rubbish to say that the ground and travel doesn’t factor in at all. Would Richmond have won the GF against us in Perth? What about against Geelong at Simonds Stadium? Arguably your greatest win this year was against Port at Adelaide Oval, but, considering they’re the biggest chokers of all time, I found that result hardly surprising.
Richmond can’t do squat away from the MCG and they know it. If they had met anyone other than Geelong in the GF this year then I reckon a few of their older boys would be looking at the Rance retirement option.

So many stupid takes here.
1. We won 3 flags in 4 years. Carlton won 3 in 7 years. So why are they shortening the time period to it took them to win 3 flags to the time between their first and last but for us they are for some reason extending it all the way back to 1980
also it’s been 25 years since their last flag and they won that by cheating the salary cap. I really don’t get their angle here.
2. West Coast would need to qualify for a grand final before we can worry about playing them over there. Pretty sure the pies beat them over there even while being locked in a hotel for the week leading up. Pies then smashed by the cats who we beat in the granny.......
3. Does he mean how in last years finals run we beat Brisbane in Brisbane or how this year we beat the saints at a neutral venue in the Gold Coast then beat the top team all season at their home ground in Adelaide before beating the cats at a beautiful venue in Brisbane
