Not really sure what to make of things, but I thought it would be interesting to compare our form in 2017 against our past form when in the years we had either won the premierships or won the Minor rounds.
ladder position | W | L | | D | percentage | % rank | Streak
1997 (= Premiership)
StK 1 15 7 0 119.6 2 W7
Ade 4 13 9 0 121.59 1 L1
1998 (= Premiership)
NMelb 1 16 6 0 117.43 2 W9
Ade 5 13 9 0 123.4 1 W1
2005 (= 3rd)
Ade 1 17 5 0 136.45 1 W10
Syd 3 15 7 0 116.39 4 W4
2017 (= ?)
Ade 1 15/16 5/6 1 139.86 1 W1/L2
Amazing how back in 97/98, we had only won 13 games and still able to scrape through with the premierships! Though on closer inspection, we actually had the best percentages in the minor rounds in both 97 and 98, which generally meant we played the better football in those years compared with the other teams.
Interesting to note, the winning/losing streak before the Finals series, doesn't really mean much at all! In 97/98 we were on a 1 game losing or winning streak, and still ended up with the big gong! In 2005, we won 10 straight before the Finals and look what good it did us!
Which Crows will turn up for the Finals? The 90s fever? Or the New Millenium bug?
