Sydney is the most schizophrenic team in the league, isn't it? One never knows how they will play in a particular weekend...
Actually pretty consistent really. Just not in a way that makes sense.
Round 1 - win away
Round 2 - lose home
Round 3 - Win home, but GWS, so not travelling opponent
Round 4 - Win away
Round 5 - lose home
Round 6 - win away
Round 7 - lose home
Round 8 - win away
Round 9 - win home
Round 10 - win away

So taking out the local derby they are 1-3 at home and 5-0 away. They should still win, but for some reason they are a much better side away this year, then at home.

Ricky Nixon has been saying since round one that Sydney stated in the off season that they have changed their game plan this year and it is more focused on winning away than at home to prepare them for a GF at the MCG. Make of it what you will.

Ricky Nixon? o_O

Why would a club focus more on winning away than at home? Surely the successful clubs focus on winning all games.

Is Ricky Nixon channelling Janus?
