It's probably lots of things but training and playing on the same oval must be an advantage. Not many clubs that do that anymore.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Both matches were away from GMHBA.
Collingwood was MCG, Roos was Marvel

Re: When things aren’t always as they seem
Geelong have been really good but a bit tin arse all year. They were going at nearly best of all time accuracy pace as of the game against us.

Thanks for the recommendation. Just listened to the latest episode and thoroughly enjoyed it. Will go back and listen to the others now.

The other good one is an RSN podcast “Beyond The Numbers” which drops ever Thursday morning. Hosted by Daniel Harford, Brendon Goddard and Daniel Hoyne from Champion Data.

100%.
These two podcasts are awesome if you are keen on trying to understand exactly what is going on and what sort of information is driving coaching/match committee/recruiting decisions.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.
