Appearances
You've normally got a few standouts where you've got no doubts over, but not in 2026.
voice-verified
Yeah, I think they've ticked a lot of boxes, Gerard.
voice-verified
They've ticked actually almost every box that they can this year.
voice-verified
And the next one for them is convincing himself that they can do it.
voice-verified
at the MCG on a big game.
voice-verified
And I don't think the crowd's going to be there that they expect that they might get later in the year.
voice-verified
But even here, you can see JL's trying to convince himself or talk himself in that they've played big games there.
voice-verified
The one in 2022 against Melbourne, probably there wasn't too many players on their team that was playing or on the list that day.
voice-verified
But this is the mindset that they need to continue to build up.
voice-verified
I was with Joel Sowood on Sunday, and the question was asked was, should they prepare this like it's a grand final?
voice-verified
And Joel was 100% yes.
voice-verified
They come over two days early anyway, so they come over two days before, so the preparation there is no different.
voice-verified
I just... I can't see JL, the way he's been playing.
voice-verified
He's always been a one-gamer at a time.
voice-verified
They never look into the future.
voice-verified
So for him to go and change it up, because it's the last time that they will play at the MCG, if they win their two finals, which we expect they will be, after this, the next time they're playing the MCG, I can't, it will be grand final day, I can't see him changing his whole theory, his whole mindset at round 23, around 22.
voice-verified
I can understand why everyone would, but this has been his philosophy for the last couple of years.
voice-verified
They haven't got ahead of himself.
voice-verified
Him and PC haven't let the players get ahead of themselves because it's been, we're here to do a job one week at a time, focus on that, and that's it.
voice-verified
It'd be weird for them to all of a sudden, their coach go, okay, we need to prepare differently.
