Our losses this year

We also had a 3 goal lead in the 3rd quarter vs Port in the round 3 showdown in 2013 and lost by 9 points

I reckon you will find we had a lead over Hawthorn in the last quarter at AAMI too. Still lost

Yep good call. And against Port in first Showdown we led by 25-30 points I reckon?

If you want to take the glass half full approach and look at games in the balance in the 2nd half that we won then you could argue the following

Rd 6 v Western Bulldogs
Rd 9 v Collingwood
Rd 15 v Port
Rd 18 v Collingwood

So of 14 such occurrences we are 4-10

If we went 7-7, then we would probably finish the year (if we beat Saints) with 14 wins. Which is actually how many Port would likely finish with. However would only likely yield 7th place.
