Worried about this game as they tend to have owned us over the last 5 years, can only remember the JUH kicking 5 win that was only sealed late and we possibly snuck another one in, but in general they have dominated and we have been scared to take them on.
Could have said the same thing about the Cats and their piss-can of a ground, so hopefully it’s the same result.
Even more worried that their dedicated thread to us is nearly on page 4 of their board, and their match thread is full of posts saying they are cooked and are no chance….
Since 2019 its actually been quite even. 9 games, We've won 4, they've won 5.
I think its just that the losses are stuck in our head more than the wins because Round 1 losses are always memorable and for some unknown reason AFL keeps making us play them in Round 1. And the GF is obviously always in our head.
Also is it just me? or does the GF and the last three Round 1 games just all seem like a repeat? I swear we always get a few goals in front at some stage but by the final siren we've lost by more than 40+ points.
We seem to usually play well at Marvel against the teams who play home games at the MCG (Carlton, Collingwood, Richmond ect)
Finishing Melbournes season tomorrow will the perfect way to end this "Mentally Scared" or whatever you wanna call it thing against them.
