We're doing the same as previous years against sides below us. Maybe we're winning by more but our record is pretty much the same as it always was against average and poor sides. I'm not disappointed at all with what we're doing but to say "we're beating sides we should be beating more consistently" is plainly false when it's pretty much the same as our time under Woosha, which people just don't want to admit.
We've been more convincing this year, in the past few years we've gone in to games against lower ranked sides knowing that in every likelihood we'd somehow end up making a grind of it and maybe win by a couple of goals. The percentage this year shows a lot more convincing wins, quite a few where (aside from the Hawks game) we've really had the job done around half-time and never let up.
