Thanks for the stats slip. Good stuff.
What about pre 01? I've been impressed with our lateral movement and keeping on our feet, knowing where and when to move.

  2000 - 56
  1999 - 29
  1998 - 44
  1997 - 39
  1996 - 56
  
  I didn't go any further, I'm assuming prior to 1996 was very ordinary until you get to the glory days.

We are about sixth in the points against column as well

  Still a lot of teams to play round 3 as well though so that position could change by Monday night..

Glory days

1986 - 22
1985 - 54
1984 - 34
1983 - 38
1982 - 28
1981 - 22

Although, 1985 Parra were missing a number of players including Kenny and Sterlo who were playing in the ESL early in the year and in 1981 and 1982 tries were worth 3 points.

Interesting the next lowest in that time was the year we made the gf.

Didnt we get pumped by rbbitohs in round2 2005? If im correct it was a 52-26 scoreline.

  49-26

Thanks slip, interesting stats.

If we can now score points as well as in 2001 we are in business!
