I'm cautious about using stats like this but will still do it to run my agenda, just like the HTI do.
The stats above are just as much about how bad teams the Sharks get benchmarked against are actually going. Dolphins, because of Bennett awe, Raiders because of Ricky rhetoric and the Broncos because, well, because they are the Broncos are way overhyped.
To take it further I'll put who the teams who have played 7 matches against top 8 teams in next
Sharks have beaten - Storm away, Roosters away (our home game but at Suncorp), Raiders home & away, Broncos away, Dargons at home.
Broncos have beaten - Dolphins home and Raiders home.
Roosters have beaten - Broncos home & away, Raiders away and Dargons away.
Keep the damn narrative going. It's us against them. That's how I like it to be.
