That quote is creepy.In 2016 at the grand final parade both handles of the premiership cup were tied with the Bulldogs’ coloured ribbons of red, white and blue. Cup ambassador Michael O’Loughlin asked for one handle to be changed to adorn Sydney’s red and white but was refused.
I actually have a picture of me that day with the Cup and it had BOTH teams colours and it was at Government House before the parade !Grand moves: AFL ponders concessions for non-Victorian clubs on footy’s biggest day
Chris Fagan has explained to the league the vast differences experiencing a grand final as Brisbane Lions coach and as a senior football executive with Hawthorn.www.smh.com.au
One club president from outside Victoria observed: “You’re treated like it’s the America’s Cup and you’re the challenger.”
But the fact that Sydney played their last home-and-away game for the season at the MCG in round seven and Collingwood play seven of their last eight at the grand final venue underlines the home-ground advantage. While second-placed Carlton play fewer games at the MCG (nine in season ’24) the Blues travel from Melbourne just twice in their last 11 home-and-away games.
The following instances might seem petty, but they are also symbolic. In 2015 West Coast entered the finals as ladder leaders but were placed below Hawthorn on the MCG scoreboard on grand final day with the Hawks also handed first choice of venue for their post-match function.

I read the article and it says the premiers over the last 5 years were in the top 3 for a key stat. But then seems to contradict itself by saying actually Melbourne were middle of the road in that stat. They did things differently.So his stat is wrong?
We've been saying for weeks we've been starting games slowly and have been winning off bursts of switching it on at the right time.
Clearly we need to rework our game somewhat before hitting finals, and games against the Lions and Pies will show us exactly where we're at.
Just that if you're going to lose a game that losing it after the siren isn't exactly the end of the world and that if that's what a poor game looks like for us then we're doing okay.What did he say?
One thing to remember about stats, they're useful until their not.
Richmond created an entirely new way to win premierships, and Melbourne also broke the mold the opposite way. In the end, I would say our last 6 weeks have been better than our first 10. So if we are looking better, but the stats are going in the other direction, doesn't this means the stats are no longer predicting the right thing?
We're still number one for points from turnover differential. Still killing it in a lot of stats.One thing to remember about stats, they're useful until their not.
