Post subject:  Quarters won
Early days I know, but I noticed that not only are we on top of the ladder but we have also won the most quarters this year with 6 out of 8. Still too early to gauge a line, however as the season progresses it will be interesting to keep an eye on this ratio.

With six quarters won we are on target to win 66 for the year. Geelong managed 65 last year and 64 the year before that, the only team to crack 60 in the past five years.

54 quarters won will pretty much guarantee a top 4 spot. 46 quarters won should be enough to get us into the top 8. Teams that miss the eight average only 36 quarters won a season, and the bottom side has averaged 28 for the past five years.

Only one team has made the eight in the past five seasons with less than 40 quarters won, Port Adelaide with 35 in 2005.

In 2006 Geelong somehow missed the finals with 46 quarters won.

With those two the only exceptions in the past five years, an aim of 46 for finals and 54 for top 4 is a feasible assumption.

If we are aiming for finals, we have 40 quarters left to be won. Come Round 6, after we've played the Bulldogs, Sydney and Hawthorn, we should have a good idea of how close we really are.

It is so nice to look at the ladder.
All the old bastards like myself will remember when it was just the norm for Carlton to be on top and stay on top.
The Hearald-Sun has an extended ladder with things like:
Qrts won 6/8 (equal 1st)
Time in from 90% (equal 2nd)
Players used 22 - lowest in comp

Ah, stats that bring warmth to ones soul.

Once we get into the season it will be an interesting indictor to monitor. We definitely have won six quarters to date.

How about we turn the focus to games won instead?

I figure we're on target for 47 at this stage. 1 more than my magical 46 I predicted at the start of April as to what we'd need to make the eight.

if we're only winning 50% of the quarters remaining this year, lets hope we win them by around 5goals each. Percentage is good, and hopefully it'll help us in the final standings.

Put that down to Ratten's coaching, and the inclusion of Bentley :donk:

In the commentary on Sunday they mentioned that we are the best performed 4th quarter team in the competition.
