Yeah, it's a good place to be, I guess.

And it's a good problem to be dealing with.

And it's probably something I don't think we've dealt with overly well at our club previously.

There's been times when we've won three in a row and the flag mantle comes out and then we lose one, we should win.

So I think this group's maturing.

We're able to get our feedback from the right places.

We're able to feel like we're able to pay every opposition the correct amount of respect each week and really stick to our process.

That's what the best teams do.

Geelong and Sydney and Brisbane have been able to do that year on year for 10 years, some of them.
