I see we have lost more games in SA than any of the other non SA teams

3 wins out of 14 ain't good.

It's actually far worse than that. It is 3 wins and 11 losses. Making it 3 wins out of 14 games. We win there once out of every five matches. And two of those three wins came within five days of each other! :shock:
Should have won 4 - that loss when we were 2 goals up against Port Adelaide with a minute to go was robbery.

Since 2012 we have always played our worst games against the Adelaide teams, and Essendon. Geelong and the Swans as well. We really need to start to turn up no matter who or where we play.

I would argue that I would be more worried of having the 0% win rate that Carlton GC and North have, than the 21% rate that we have. Yeah, we have more losses, but we have also played between 4-8 more games than the others, during a time where we have been historically bad, and the 2 SA teams being a mixed bag.

Port have been good during this era. Several top 4 finishes and usually make finals.

Adelaide was good until 2017.

We won two games in two weeks there in 2020 travelling from the Sunshine Coast on game day.

Robbie Gray, Paddy and Acres have a lot to answer for.
Of course, conversely, Crows still have nightmares about Max.

In a team game it's really convenient when fans/players/coaches look for a single scapegoat.

Didn't most of us on saintsational blame Billy Longer?

Have another look at that last minute of the game and tell me what you think Seb Ross and Jack Billings were doing...or what they should have been doing

It was two wins from two games in five days!
