old dee 24,082 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) You can make anything you like of stats but here is an interesting one. how many games have we lost by 9+ goals over the last 4 year. Below is the result from my investigation 2008 7 2009 6 2010 2 2011 7 with 4 games to go. So this year we are equal to our bottom out year and we still have 4 games to go, sunday could easily add another. looks stark against last year. What it clearly says to me is that we have gone backwards in a big way. To have as bad a year as 2008 is amazing. Any thoughts? Edited August 9, 2011 by old dee Quote

Redleg 42,147 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Posted August 9, 2011 Ditto Single malt DC much better. I actually enjoy the odd vodka with some lime and lemonade or kahlua on ice. Quote

Redleg 42,147 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Posted August 9, 2011 have not tried the first option I will have to give it a go. If you were watching the Geelong game on TV you would probably have 5 or 6. Quote

And then the win/loss ratio...3 out of 22 in 2008, 7.5 out of 18 in 2011. We're still winning games. I blame the inconsistency on our leadership group, if that exists. It's normally only a few players under 23 who can hold their head high after a big loss. Quote
Sir Why You Little 37,454 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I actually enjoy the odd vodka with some lime and lemonade or kahlua on ice. Love a white russian or 3... Quote
Redleg 42,147 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Posted August 9, 2011 Love a white russian or 3... Might have one back in the side this week. PS. I know he is not really russian. Quote
John Crow Batty 8,892 Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Can't drink scotch anymore. Gives me too much of a sore head like our club. These days I'm into like the TV commercial "el tranquilo" feeling. A fine Cuban Rum like Havana Club or Santiago De Cuba. Or if I feel like singing a few verses of What shall we do with a Drunken Sailor then Pusser's Navy Rum from the Virgin Islands does the job. Edited August 10, 2011 by america de cali Quote
