No in the real world its the 21st century FACT, and Cats have won more than any team thus far in the 21st century, also FACT
@acatman1 - serious question:

during Hockings time at the afl 2017-2021, Richmond were the dominant team. The whole footy world knows this was confronting to Hocking and that he is far from a Tigers fan. Some of the rule changes he implemented whilst at AFL house were knowingly inspired by Richmond progressively changing the way the game was played. So he did what he did, keeping in mind how these changes would effect his beloved Cats own game plan. Now he's back by the Barwon. Objectively, what do you make of that?

Swans have made the GF 6 times since 2005 which is a great achievement. Unfortunately for them they have lost 4 of them including the last 3.

Yeah, but Harry is correct, Hawthorn have 4 in the 21st century too. Bloody Hawthorn, they had 1 when I was born :(

Is there anything to substantiate those statements, Art?
yeah TBR. Common Knowledge ... !

but seriously, we all know the ad nauseum debate surrounding said goings on with Steve Hocking...
I'm a 'where there is smoke there's fire' type of thinker .. and i won't get into who I know, good authority, etc..
..because in the world of the AFL there's plenty of dark corners, and...
Hocking has his foot half in one, half out. Like most of them.
And ultimately I think, Big Deal.
The great RFC won 3, should've been 4, under the watch of the dodgiest goon squad in AFL history.

anyway TBR, my question was directed at acatman1, not yr good self .. but thanks for reading .. ;)

Richmond have won more than any other team since 2015. Fact!

Well 4 flags in the 21st century is more than Hawks or Tiges....... dems the FACTS
The FACT is that Hawthorn have 4. You should remember that because they beat the Cats to win one of them. So at present they’re equal. When/if Geelong win another 1 before the Hawks then you can crow.

Nope. Hawks won 4
They also had a 3 peat
Geelong haven't even manage back2back flags.

Hawks the most dominate team so far this century.

Spot on. The Handbaggers need a few more flags in quick time to make up for all those finals chokes we’ve come to see and love. I’m tipping there’s no back to backs coming from this mob, unlike us.

Got me a feeling Hawforn won 4 flags in the 21st century n that included a three peat. Moggies haven't even been able to manage a back to back. Your facts are somewhat slightly fuckt.

Changes made assisted the longevity of players in the AFL. Poach & stack a side with them the result can end up in a Flag. The cards fell the right way for the Catters in the finals when lucky to beat Pies, weeks rest after Lions failed to show up. Salty stuck with his plan but after this one will they be a force from now on.
