Convenient!
Not as convenient as remembering just 1 game
I'm very old, I remember 13 premierships and being champions of Australia, not just 1 game or 19!

Standard was much better in those days as less team, you'll have to trust my memory too.![]()
I blame others for getting off topic at times but looking at the original topic and what I'm crapping on about now I can safely blame myself as much as anyone else!

Doesn't that get included in just about every thread in any case
You mean the "North's won it this year- just look at our team on paper" Thread?

1989 is ancient history, get over it!GWW wrote:
Its amazing how North supporter's bring up this 1905 game when the 89 grand final is brought up, i wouldnt have thought there was much comparison - the 1989 game would be in most of our lifetimes...the 1905 game would have been before most of our grandparents were alive......in 1905 the average scores would no doubt have been a lot lower than they were in 89.
