We are currently 5 matches without a win. You hear many fans from teams overseas saying they are focussing on getting "x points from the next block of x games". If we were applying the same to our situation, we should have been aiming to get 7 points from the last 3 games as a minimum. Wins against the struggling Nix, Mariners and a point form City.
Looking ahead we have Victory, Perth and Sydney. We will be doing well, I think, to get 1 point. Victory are rested, Sydney undefeated and we haven't beaten Perth in 5 years, let alone winning over there in over 10 years or bringing back even a point 8 years ago.
I've got a real fear things are going to get worse before they get better.
