Seriously, from 2007 to 2015 we have looked ordinary more often than not, and continually make poor decisions.
Yes we did ok there for a bit, but personally that says more about the competition at that time then than it does now.
We did OK, but we couldn't beat the top 4 sides even when we "peaked" under Rattan.
We've been crap for 15 years and haven't been a serious finals contender since 2000.

Not the best record but not never won stuff territory either. That 2011 season was the one that we should have done better in.
I said that we couldn't beat top 4 sides when we peaked under Ratten and 2011 was his peak.
We won one final in his 5 and a bit years and the team who "robbed" us of a prelim had been wooden spooners a few years prior, they got smashed in the prelim like we would have.
We need a complete overhaul, with or without Malthouse.

It was alot better than we went in any of the other 15yrs and it was nice to play finals. We went so bad any final felt good.
We went OK when we got peptided into the finals, a win in week one and a four goal loss in Sydney in week two.

I am absolutely dreading losing to this mob. I may have to implement an indefinite electronic communications ban just to avoid the onslaught from all family and friends.

That's because the dumb-ar5e EFC fans think every win they have like yesterday is proof they are innocent, what a bunch of Ultra-morons!
They haven't heard of self-incrimination!

That was Pagan's rebuild. Been labouring ever since.
Bringing in 15 plodders that were delisted from other clubs was not a rebuild.
