Hate to say it but they are on the way up. By necessity they put games into the kids and are reaping the rewards. They are horrible to watch as they are defence oriented to prevent blowouts but if they could find another forward or two they will be playing finals in the near future
If you consider games decided by a goal or under as a coin toss (i.e. a 50-50 game), and use a binomial distribution to calculate the probability of Brad Scottâs record in games decided by a goal and under, you get 0.024%, or roughly 1-in-4,100.
Itâs worse when you factor in that a large number of those losses have come at Etihad with the roof closed so they arenât getting run over by teams coming home with a breeze.
I think it was also mentioned that in 17 of those games they were either level or infront with 2 minutes remaining lol
