Thank you Marty!
At the start of 2016 we were spoon favourites.
3 years later we have 2 extra flags to the total and we're disappointed to have finished the year after Semi-Finals.
This is our most successful period since I have been on this Earth, and Mattner is our equal 2nd most successful premiership coach; Oatey: 7 flags, Mattner 2 flags and Mayman 2 flags (Coincidentally, Mayman also coached us for 3 years and technically, won his 2 flags in a row also, Australia was involved in the 1st WW between Mayman's flags, and competition was suspended).
Who'd have thought we would be in this position at the start of 2016 with all the retirements we experienced at that time, and the forecast looking so dim?
I know he was hanging out for an AFL gig here in SA, and we might have lost him sooner had he been open to offers across the border, but it is a bitter pill to swallow for me, with him going to the Crows. I want to see him do well, and I believe he will, I just wish he didn't have to do it at the Crows!
Thanks for a very mighty 3 years at the helm Mattner. Your place in immortality is set at Unley.
All the best for the future!

We were 250/1 to win the flag in the off season leading into 2016!

There is no way bookies open any team up higher than 50/1 before a game is played.

North were 200/1 before a ball was kicked this year. Unfortunately I never had any of it though,

Missus reckoned she saw 200's the Chooks after the round 1 shelacking but no way would any bookie offer over 50's before the opening round.
