2017 was one of the strongest seasons in history.
If it was a weak season it would have been easier for one team to stand out.
- The premiers didn’t make finals
- The runners-up were eliminated in the semi final
- There was half a game between the top 4, and only 1 more game between the top 6.
One more win and 11th could have finished 7th (with percentage). The lowest number of wins was 5.
You’re confusing even with strong. 2016 was much stronger, the 7th placed Dogs had the same amount of wins as the top 4 this year.
