I think the point is - why did you happen to pick round 9?
Or you could go through the stats and work out who was playing in the other teams (ie no Lockyer, no Thurston, no Mason and O'Meley etc) and then make the stats prove that those teams wouldn't be in the 8 if they were playing with that squad.
See, you can organise stats to tell you what you want quite often.
We could just as well say we are 0/2 against teams above us.
Don't get me wrong, our team is doing well and the whole "we can't beat top teams" may be blown out of proportion, but we are still yet to really prove anything.
