Inaccurate kicking - longest sequence

Postby CK » Mon May 12, 2008 8:09 pm

G'day Spelly,

Norwood's first 6 games this year have all had more behinds than goals kicked. What is the longest sequence that this has occurred for all clubs please?

Cheers
CK

Cheers S.C - done well again! So Norwood are one game from equalling the longest sequence in the modern era (last 40 years)...a record they wouldn't be keen to chase!

If you want a starting point for accuracy/inaccuracy, I'd choose 1975 as there has been collectively a rate of at least 50% goals to total scoring shots every year since then.

Three clubs have had 8 consecutive matches with more behinds than goals since then:
Woodville between Rds 1 and 8 1975
South between Rds 13 and 20 1996
Sturt between Rds 12 and 19 2005
