6 of those 10 scores resulted in wins and the there 4 barely hit a combined 20 point margin.Averaged 78.1 against sides who are playing finals. Drops to 71.8 if you exclude the outlier 134 against the Swans in round 2 (when they rancid), with only one other score above 100.
Scores against top 8 sides - 82,134,76,61,66,45,79,105,56,77.
Sorry to say, but you ain't winning bupkis with that record.
We tend to grind other good sides - because your right, our forward line functioned properly for about 2 rounds for the whole season. But in the grind the other team doesn't score either.
If we get there, it won't be like 2021 where we won all our finals comfortably. Each game will be a coin flip and a few goals in a burst either way late will likely be decisive.
