Like a few of the others, I was born into the era of mediocrity, never saw any of the previous greatness. All I've ever known leading into 2017 was how great the Richmond sides of the late sixties to early 80's were.
So its amazing to be able to join the conversation now.
For me, it absolutely does. From a statistical perspective, you should really expect one every 16-18 years, and I suppose for me we have done that now.
But I also understand the opinion that it doesn't quite make up for the years of shyteness. I can only imagine if you saw a team performing the way it is now, to have them floundering a la Gold Coast/Carlton for 35 years (with sprinklings of average finals performances) it would be very difficult to take.
And like most have mentioned, I never, beyond my wildest dreams, thought I would actually ever get to see one. That's honestly one of the few things on my bucket list - and probably the only one I never really had any chance to effect. So from that perspective, to see 2 sates me. And yet, I'm hungry for more. And more. And more. I want to see us put in a performance of domination and destruction the likes of which has never been seen. That make the Brisbane/Geelong/Hawthorn teams look like flukes. And I want this now more than I ever have before.
