    The casual boast thread

    On the back of a triumphant finals series some things have come to my attention that are worthy of mention. Feel free to add any you think should be called out.

    * 3rd year player Marcus Bontempelli has won as many premierships as StKilda

    * 1st year player Josh Dunkley has won more finals since 1982 than Richmond

    * 2nd year player Zaine Cordy has won more finals since 2002 than Essendon

    * 2nd year player Caleb Daniel had won more finals since 2001 than Carlton

    * Lin Jong has won more finals than Brent Stanton and he missed the last 3 finals through injury.

    It must suck playing for a little club!

      I couldn't think of any because apparently we are irrelevant.
      Where's that knob now...

          Zaine Cordy is a premiership winning CHF. Nick Riewoldt isn't.
          Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              Jordan Roughead had 13 disposals & 5 marks in 4 Grand Final quarters. In 8 Grand Finals quarters (2014 & 2016) Gary Rohan has had 12 disposals & 5 marks. Roughead already has him covered!

                  And Jordy has played in a premiership.
                  They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                      First year player Josh Dunkley has played in more winning finals than we did in our 2008-2010 window.

                          Collingwood overlooked father/son Liam Picken.

                          Liam Picken has kicked more Grand Final goals (3) in one Grand Final/Premiership than Leon Davis has in 4 Collingwood Unsuccessful Grand Finals (2).

                              Liam has kicked more goals and played in more winning GFs than his dad did if you really want to sink the boot in. But Billy is a bulldog these days so forget I ever mentioned it.

                                      Not much of a boast - even Fitzroy have won more finals than Richmond since 1982

                                          Zaine has won more flags and more finals in 11 games than his father/brother/uncles did in over 400.

                                              We have more premiership players (23) than any other club, and 20 more than the Giants.
