Bugger all this negativity.
When the Eagles beat us in the last derby, it was an aberration almost identical to their win over Hawthorn in the QF last year.
In the last ten years, we have a 15 - 5 record against the Slime; Hawthorn is similar (though not quite as pulverizing), 11 - 5.
In our last seven meetings, we have them 6 - 1, exactly the same as the Hawks.
Just as the Hawks restored the natural order in the GF, and again last weekend, so will we this coming Saturday.
They are our bunnies. Bunnies.
