Steelers in the .....

Temme, oh Temme.
This May be my fault as i‘d used a comma after the 11 point drop (factual) and the inconsistency. Maybe l should have used a full stop, who knows grammar experts feel free to clarify.
Interesting take on the season though......maybe winning Friday then loosing a final on a Sunday to a team that we’ve beaten regularly, then add other results from teams it gives an impression of inconsistency, maybe, certainly it was discussed as such.

I very rarely use results to judge how consistent performances have been; there's far more 'relevant' metrics to work out how a team is performing.
I use relevant in quotation marks because there is of course nothing really worth measuring as a fan other than points on the board, therefore anything more relevant is highly questionable!!!
However, for me we have been a bit suspect in some areas for most of the season (despite this, we finished the season top, so clearly despite certain areas looking a little off, we were obviously good enough to win trophies) - this is no secret, you can look at the threads that people have posted on here to get a better idea but i'm sure we know already where we are deemed to have struggled this season.
These suspect positions have been suspect for the entire season, I can't honestly think of a player/spot where someone went from extremely good to extremely poor, other than Jardine who managed a very rough start but was exceptional thereafter.
I guess we have different definitions of inconsistent, and that's completely fine, that's what we're here for anyway
but evidence suggests our form was consistent all season, and in my very insignificant opinion, the vast majority of the players performed at a consistent level all season, some struggled all year, some didn't, but we didn't have a massive hot/cold/hot/cold cycle like previous years i don't think.

Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.
I agree we didn’t have a massive hot/cold/hot/cold cycle, just inconsistency.
