Because 12 games isn't a statistically relevant sample. Ricky Stuart's record in his first 12 finals matches was 75%. Is he really that good? It's a meaningless sample of games. Bellamy is 2 from 9 in Origin. If he coached another 3 Origin games he would be 5 from 12 at best. It's just not enough of a sample to even out the randomness of superior opposition, missing players, bad calls, and the bounce of the ball.
The spin doctor is at it again. SOO is a totally different beast to coaching the nrl, where Bellamy has months to years to coach his methods and build a club.
It took ba 10 years to build up to those 12 finals appearances, but the great pau thinks that that's too small a sample size. Maybe we should have gave him another 10 just to support pau paus nonsense statistics.
