I've always felt like winning the prelim by a lot sets you up for failure, but I just looked it up, and, by my count, since 2000 the team with the bigger winning margin in the prelim has won the premiership 10 times, and the team with the smaller winning margin in the prelim has won the premiership 10 times (Collingwood and Brisbane both had the same winning margin one year). Statistically it couldn't be less relevant.
Let's just ******* get there.
