Brisbane has lost 12 games in row at the MCG during the home-and-away season, but that's not the worst run of any one team at any one ground in AFL/VFL history.
Footy grounds are sometimes the same. Knowing the number of steps from the rooms to the race, and the race to the ground. Understanding how the lights hit the eyes at night, or how the stands shape how shadows form in the late afternoon.On the weekend, the footy world saw an example of a team that struggles at one particular location.
For many clubs, the worst streaks are either short, intense periods of losses at home, or decades of misery at Kardinia Park. They lost in all types of ways at Docklands — blowouts as the home team in front of meagre crowds, close ones as the away team in front of hoards of rival fans. Two MCG tenants, Richmond and Melbourne, both rose to become premiership sides during the era when Brisbane also came good, while two bad losses to weaker Hawthorn sides stand out as the two stand-out poor performances by the Lions in recent years.
