Welcome back to 1992.

Big hits from Boyz to Men, Kris Kross made us Jump, Jump...
... and we've got an up and coming team.

I am convincved that 2008 will be a reasonable year similar to 1992.

Welcome back to 1992.

Seinfeld is in it's infancy
Holden has released it's latest VP Commodore
Steve Vizard is hosting a tonight show
Home interest rates are at 17%

We're not a serious threat yet but good niusance value.

If 2008 trends continue to reflect 1992, we should just miss out on the finals this year. Many will consider we were the best team outside the 8.

In 2009 we make the GF only to get beaten by a below average team in an average year. Some hated opposition player will kick a goal after running too far and having the ball touched on the line by B. Thornton who will eventually "sing like a canary" when questioned about player payments in the future.
NOTE: Beware of offers including bottomless cups of coffee.

We'll have a good 2010 finishing 2nd after the home and away season but will go out of the finals disapointingly in straight sets after being "pumped up as..." against an undermanned side. Talk of Ratts quitting after a sombre end to our finals campaign.

After a very quiet summer, 2011 looks like the being our year. We'll lose two games to joke teams and win 16 in a row including the flag with a side that includes some handy disgards from other clubs.
Normally respectable supporters will remove their trousers in a show of relief, beer will flow freely and pizzas consumed in Lygon followed by pandemonium, delerium and very little decorum at Princes Park.

If only...

1992 was GREAT year.

remember that year well...it was a top 6 and we finished out on percentage.. Hawthorn and St Kilda finished equal with us and we beat both those teams twice that year. So of course we were the best team out of the finals heatley stand wrote: Welcome back to 1992.

The similarities are there and we had to learn a new coaching style but the 92 side had unbelieveable talent. This list man for man is not as good Kernanhan Fevola Bradley Judd Silvagni Thornton Williams Stevens Madden Cloke Ratten Murphy Kouta Gibbs Sexton Waite Alvin Bannister Spalding O'hailpin

Great thread Heatley Stand. You could be on the money; something is certainly brewing. It's an interesting exercise Michael Jezz has started. The '92 list listed below were the main event; players who established themselves and went on with it. I don't agree with some of the comparisons, and I'll give it a burl: Quote: Kernanhan Fevola FEVOLA Bradley Judd JUDD Silvagni Thornton JAMISON Williams Stevens MURPHY Madden Cloke KRUEZER Ratten Murphy HADLEY Kouta Gibbs GIBBS Sexton Waite WAITE Alvin Bannister WALKER Spalding O'hailpin CLOKE/HARTLETT/SANTA Add HAMPSON changing in the ruck Add SIMMO, STEVENS, CARROTS rotating in the centre Who will be our CLAPE next year (BIG NAME RECRUIT) The signs are there. We have the class and quality in 2008 to take us th the HOLY GRAIL. Number 17.

I can't wait for 2015. A 1 point, against all odds win over Essendon* in the Prelim final. Marc Murphy lays a tackle on Stanton in the dying seconds, denying those [insert slang vulgar name for female genitals here]AH* has a blinder, gets booked for kneeing a scum player in the head but then Ahmed Fahour gets all the legal eagles together and gets him off to play the Gold Coast Kangas. Unfortunately, not only do we lose that GF but we inherit their coach 4 years later.........you know what happens next I'll be celebrating with you in Lygon St, Heatley Stand, having photos taken by that depressing man in a pork pie hat outside Papa Gino's. PS. Does it also mean there is another Robbie Baggio about to take the world game by storm? One can only hope * Adam Hartlett leaves for the big bucks two years later, only to have his career cut short by chronic knee injuries.

On the minus side, we have some spoons to look forward to around 2018 - 2022. I'll probably be pushing up daisies by then or too senile to care... (Woo Hoo... mashed carrots!) But then around 2024 Bryce gibbs will take over as senior coach after a short stint as assistant with the Launceston Demons and it's 1992/2008 all over again... Now I'm just confused.

Hopefully he is referring to Collingwoods centenary year and in particular their celebration match against their greatest and most hated rivals.
