Interesting comparison

at the moment i am trying to find a positive in our current situation. looking at the facts from the last couple of seasons (despite quite a few obvious differences in form):

<<After Round 9>> (over 40 point losses noted)

2008: 4 wins, 5 losses
- 46 point loss to Brisbane (R9)
- 42 point loss to Geelong (R4)

2007: 4 wins, 5 losses
- 46 point loss to Fremantle (R9)
- 53 point loss to Port Adelaide (R5)
- 52 point loss to Brisbane (R2)

2006: 5 wins, 4 losses

2005: 4 wins, 5 losses
- 46 point loss to Adelaide (R9)

A little freaky that in 3 out of the 4 years mentioned, we lost- interstate- by exactly 46 points in round nine.

anyways, just thought i'd share these facts, to hopefully shed some positive light. i mean, we made top 4 in 2005 and finals 2006. i am a person who believes we will turn it around so hopefully this proves we may be able to.

its not the results which are the biggest problem, but the way we're playing

i completely agree- our form is down. very very down and we dont show any signs of improvement at this moment in time. however, there is a possibility we could turn it around. a small chance, but we'll see i guess. call me an optomist.

ya

if we can squeak a win against Melbourne that would be good.

I honestly believe we have the talent, we just lack the confidence and the discipline and possibly he game plan.
