Nick's Collingwood Bulletin Board

It was 4 September 2004 - the last day on which Essendon won a Final.

For comparison, in the same time, Collingwood has won 18 (including, of course, 2 premierships).

As you would expect, John and Paul even wrote a song for the occasion:



Long may The Streak continue.

# of finals win since Essendon's winless finals streak commenced:

Geelong = 24 (4 flags)
Sydney = 20 (2 flags)
Collingwood = 18 (2 flags)
Hawthorn = 16 (4 flags)
West Coast = 14 (2 flags)
Port Adelaide = 11 (1 flag)
Western Bulldogs = 11 (1 flag)
Richmond = 10 (3 flags)
GWS = 9
Adelaide = 8
St Kilda = 8
Fremantle = 7
Brisbane Lions = 7
Melbourne = 6 (1 flag)
North Melbourne = 5
Carlton = 4

Essendon and Gold Coast have no finals wins in that time.

It's disappointing to see Carlton propping up that table, too, Jezza.

Happy 20th anniversary Dopers; you deserve it.
And they thought 1965 - 1984 was a decent flag drought in a 12 team comp!
