    Can anyone remember

    The last time we had the best percentage of a group of teams on the same number of points (20 at the end of round 8 - 2006)?

    I was tidying up today and found a fixture card. This weekend last year we played the Doggies - then went down to face the Saints at the Dome the week after. Aaargh. Crap game and night - but good pizza and companionship in misery.

          didn't we sit on top of the table after round 1 last year after flogging the Hawks?

              Yes, and we didn't get back to #1 until the last game of the year.

                      Who had a worse percentage.

                      By definition, to be the best when ranking you have to better than someone.

                        Why do they pay two firsts and no seconds for a dead heat? Being first makes you the best by definition.

                          Because there is usually a third and a fourth and a fifth...

                            The two equal winners are both first. Equal best. Game over.
