I'm pretty sure it was Fitzroy during WWI, when there were only 4 sides. They finished the season in 4th, then in the finals, they notched up 2 wins in a row to take out the Premiership.

Most Wooden Spoons - St Kilda.

Longest Premiership Drought - Sydney, 72 years I think.

Never won a premiership - Fremantle (only club left that haven't).

AK: st kilda is right - 26 spoons - sydney also right

bacon: premierships - carlton and essendon both 16

most goals by a player in a season - bob pratt and peter hudson, 150 in a season

longest winning sequence - 23 Games Geelong Round 12,1952 to Round 13, 1953, (26 wins by carlton if you count a draw in the mix as well)

jim stynes is right, but he played 244 consecutive games

Peter Hudson works in the same department as me, just in Melbourne. He was off-site the 3 days I was over there too. :(
