What happened?

[ScottH]

Since the North game scores for and against have changed by 60 points.

Our defence is certainly a lot stronger and are playing much better since that game.
It was no coincidence that when Ted was off the ground last night, the cats kicked 2 goals in a row.

Discovered all that money was well spent and started to relax and not worry about themselves as being sacrificial lambs (see PEB, LRT, Mitchell, Rohan)

They had a 4 hour long meeting after the North game which the Swans claim was a torrid game review session. A little birdy told me they actually listened to Michael Bolton songs for 4 hours and they vowed as a group to never go through that hell again.

I like this graphical depiction as well, particularly the comparison to premiership teams of previous years:

Scott's squiggles are better : the charcoal grey background makes 'em look more authoritative.
But what was it Wellington said ? "There are three kinds of lies - lies , damned lies .....and squiggles."

Interesting. The results for the first 5 rounds include the Adelaide game, which was a clear outlier and so the average probably hides just how bad we really were.

Our performances since the North game reflect a steady an continuing improvement. Whack a trend line through that graph and we should score about 155 against the Suns (not to mention 165-odd against Port, which would be nice, but is a little hard to believe).
