Thread: Swans = Best Team Last Three Years

    The only true indication is premierships.

    You'd be hard pressed convincing anyone that Sydney has been a better team over recent years than Brisbane. Yes we were in 2005 but their record 2001-2004 speaks for itself.

    But I assume his aim was to gaod the Vic based club, morons. So having an I/state team on top for the last 5 years, must hurt, including the "ugly ducklings"!! hehehehe.

    You must of learnt this from the Port supporters when they won last year.
    No wait a second. This is not arrogant. Why is it acceptable to call Port or Brisbane the best team of the last three years but not our own??? Especially if the stats speak for themselves?

    Why is it that the Swans fans are such a self-depricating lot?

    I have said nothing about the future. I have not said that we have more talent or that we will crush any opponents or that we will win the next five premierships.

    But I refute anyone who says Brisbane has been the best side in the comp since Paul Roos took over. I'll refute anyone that says any team has been more successful. Yes you could pick any period you want, but my period relates purely to the work Roos and this team has done. And as far as I am concerned (in fact a considerable deal to my own surprise) we are the most consistent and successful team over that period.

    No chance of that 'cause we've actually won a premiership in the last forty years.

    Disagree. The goal is to win flags - we've won one each. If you don't win a flag, making the GF is better than anything else - it's 2-1 to them. After that, it's making a PF - 2-2. After that it's making the finals - 3-2 to us.

    So, it's rather even but their extra GF is better than our extra finals spot.

    Not that it really matters - I only care who won the flag in 2005
