I've kind of made peace with the result either way.
Win, lose or draw (that'd still be a good result
), as long as they bring effort this afternoon I'm happy with the season.
Should we lose, we were obviously not ready, and it's doubtful we'd have lasted deep into the finals anyway.
"But the finals experience would be invaluable. You just don't get that in regular round games" some might say.
Seriously :
Final round of the year, no 'next time' for us if we lose
A huge build up
A packed MCG
Fanatical supporters
Two teams with everything to play for...
Do folks really think that because a game in two weeks time has 'finals' written alongside it that it can match what's going to happen this afternoon.
The only games that will come close are the final two weeks of the season.
