McRae basically admitted we're better when we're in "Rocca" mode as opposed to saving games, which is why we're in so many close games. I think we'll let Rocca mode roll much more next year before activating Presti mode.

Yup. WC got lucky. Maybe they coulda still won. But flaky Geebung is much better oppo than hardened Pies.

But the % thing... Had a lotta big wins that season too. Many more than in '23 (only GC...).
