Another interesting stat

[Mike_B]

The Brisbane Lions have played 8 finals at the MCG. Their record there is 3 wins and 5 losses - obviously their only wins at the MCG have come in Grand Finals. A good sign for Geelong perhaps?

I'd like our only MCG wins to be GFs as well

Interesting:- Something, such as a quality, subject, or activity, that evokes this mental state

arouse the curiosity or hold the attention



:P

Much better than our record! I reckon Geelong are in with a good chance this weekend. Get some money on them.

Always have a chuckle at all the stats being bandied about. If it's not within the last few years (2-6) the teams are virtually unrecognisable .. so why bother?
