A couple of better goalkicking efforts and we’re now moving well ahead of last years ‘points for’.
Defence is still over 100 points better than the same time last year.
Despite the loss our percentage actually improved fractionally over last week.

We’d have to look at the total goalkicking list to the same stage but we seem to have increased our spread of goalkickers. Last year most of our goals at this stage seemed to have come from just half a dozen players.

Numerology for this week …
In 2017 our three leading goalkickers had 11, 10 and 6 respectively.
in 2019 our three leading goalkickers had 11, 10 and 6 respectively.

A bad loss can put a big dent in your percentage when your 'For and Against' is around the 500/600 mark. We lost over 8% last weekend. That’s still well ahead of our percentage at the same stage last season.

Our two goalkicking leaders didn’t add to their tally…it would have been extremely difficult for McGovern to advance.

It’s interesting the similarity between our 2017 and 2019 –‘Points For’ with only 3 points separating them.

Nothing much else of interest there. Our attack and defence both remain ahead of last year.

The more you look at it the poorer last season looks (particularly in defence) in comparison to the other years of the rebuild which have been pretty stable from a statistical point of view.

Numerology-Our Goals and Behind Tally for this season is the same 74.

Dropped just a fraction in percentage.

On the positive side, in the last few weeks, we’ve now moved ahead of our ‘Points For’ for the previous 3 seasons.
The Points Against which was at one stage more than 100 points better than last year has suffered a bit, with injuries disrupting the backline, and has now slipped under the 100 point mark.

Numerology-our leading goalkicker to the end of Round 8 has had 13 goals for each of the last 3 years (this year we have 2 of them though ;))

Compared to the rest of the comp we've gone from 17th last year to 13th this year (for goals scored).

Not a massive improvement - but we'll take it.

It’s good to see McGovern having scoreboard impact.  I think he is getting better with every game but the fact that he can score from limited possessions is a good sign.

It’s also a good sign that Cripps is impacting the scoreboard, we just need a couple of other mids to start scoring consistently.

I suspect that Charlie’s name will appear among our leading goal kickers in the next week or two and I’m looking forward to that  :)

This analysis makes so much more sense than the 4 from 40 tripe.

He's quality, no question

Harry and Charlie should give the guy space - and drag defenders away....one on one Guv beats anyone (noting I said the same about Charlie last year).
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Our forward line is very much a work in progress and Charlie and the Gov missing game’s didn’t help.  It’s going to click before long and Lods’ goaltracker could blow a boiler  :)

The percentage took a bit of a beating this week. Down to 76.4 from a high of 93.6 after round 6.

McKay and McGovern now tracking ahead of the top 2 from previous seasons.

We didn’t get as badly knocked about in the points ‘For and Against’ comparison this week as we might have expected. That’s because in Round 9 last year Melbourne beat us 25-9-159 to 7-8-50.

Rather amazing that over the 4 years we track there is only a 7 goal difference in our ‘Points For’ For and apart from the ‘aberration last year about the same in our ‘Points Against.’

Begs the question, have we actually improved at all?

Getting rid of 14 or so players every off season for 3 years has a cumulative effect. It's like resetting every time.

Yes that is a reality fans won't accept, yet if you point out they feel negative in the same cumulative way they enter denial!

Yes, it's a hard sell, the slow rebuild. Clearly media and certain supporters (and maybe others) are getting very fidgety.
