yes I know there's still a game to play but I had some time on my hands at lunch so I thought I'd crunch some numbers. We all know this has been our best season yet. I would have taken 10 wins at the beginning of the year - we're already a game ahead of that with a winnable one to come. But just how good has our year been?

Of our 10 highest scores - 5 have come this year (number to beat v D's - 104)
Of our 10 lowest scores - 1 has come this year (although 42 against Geelong equals v Syd & Rich last year but in those two games we conceded 171 and 163 points respectively - cats only scored 69) that's the number to avoid v D's.
None of our 10 highest scores conceded have come this year (number to avoid v D's - 157)
6 of our 10 lowest scores conceded have come this year (number to beat v D's - 67)
6 of our 10 biggest wins have come this year (number to beat v D's - 32)
None of our 10 biggest losses have come this year (number to avoid v D's - 113)
Average crowds at Spotless are up by 1425 over 2014 and 2365 over the three year aggregate
Average crowds at Manuka are up by 1924 over 2014 and 1802 over the three year aggregate
All in all things are definitely on the rise. We're scoring more, conceding less and being watched by more people. Happy times.
