[Certainly not a negative towards Spud's win...]

...but man, what have the Saints done to deserve this opposition goal frenzy?

98.52 against in the last 6 weeks...crazy stuff.

Now, I know the Dogs had similar numbers (against) going back a couple of years, but they were giving up marks in the goal square and free men happily running though the middle unchecked regularly...
...From what I remember, stats back it up...and given the 'Pies kicked 2-3 right out of the date, it all seems to be more bad luck than anything??...

It's really getting to me now...is it a real issue? Will the (perceived) law of averages take effect, or is it one of those things??

Saints dead set stiff imho...(Not to mention the 'funny' bouncing ball in the gol square that would have got them within a kick with a minute left!)

Anyway...the difference between the top 4...(and possibly Sydney) and the rest of the rabble is rediculous.
Start the finals now.
