I’m not sure if it belongs or not but I think ‘game day’ is appropriate to start up a thread re the SCG. Now I’m a Victorian so I don’t have the opportunity to attend our fantastic ground (I have trained on it once before though...broke my finger).
I think there’s a serious need to get the ground to capacity, no matter who we’re playing, in order to create that porachial 19th man that almost all other teams have. I love that WC & Freo are pretty much sold out, the Crows crowd are the best and even Geelong do alright (they’re actually too quiet but almost always full).
Losing those 3 or 4 games or whatever it was was pretty ordinary and to create a fortress would help alleviate this just like it does in Adelaide and Perth. Yeah I know, if you’re a s**t team it probably doesn’t matter but we haven’t been down in almost 20 years and almost every other team succeeds at our home ground regardless of our form. We just don’t do okay on our own ground as well as we should...why?
