Officially our longest ever streak of NOT scoring 100 points in a game.

27 matches in a row and counting...

Can we admit we have a problem yet?

We have a problem with our midfield, even with a winning ruck we cant generate enough forward entries....dont have the list to play a high possession game either, too many poor decision makers
with poor execution skills...yes you are right when it does get forward we dont have the artillery to kick a winning score, only Wright could be classed as a reliable accurate kick and you could include Charlie Curnow as improving in that area but thats about it. Casboult is a good resting second ruck/forward but not a genuine KP Forward who can be relied upon....

Time to give Harry a run towards the end of the season, me thinks, though not sure he really deserves it based upon form. But an opportunity to blood him a little for next season. Unfortunately not sure there is much else goal wise we can do ?

This is it, in perfect summation. Although I like the bolded bit best.

Not surprised to hear that stat.

Can't say it matters really.

There is maybe two teams a week that score over 100 points.

No easy beats any more either.

This is a bit of a misconception.

We are not as bad as it appears when you break it down game by game.

5 times this year we have won the inside 50 count.
Bombers (by 22)
Dees (2)
Dees (3)
Suns (10)
Swans (4)

3 times we have lost it by 4 or under
Suns (-2)
Pies (-4)
Crows (-2)

7 times we have lost it by 5 or more
Tigers (-13)
Tigers (-21)
Port (-33)
Saints (-22)

GWS (-14)
Kangaroos (-9)
Dockers (-8)

Wins
Losses by under 3 goals
Losses by over 3 goals

But these numbers are purely quantitative, what about the quality of the entry?
Finals, then 4 in a row!
