Where does OMac (or other Demon Defenders) sit on this list?

Anyone know where we can find these stats through Champion Data?

Surprising, Oscar should be well up there, has hardly been beaten all year. Starting to think all these stats CD are pumping are are complete junk.

    I don't really understand the point of including 2017. Why not include 2016 or go back as far as 2012 so we can make it even less relevant to this years in form players?

    Ignore Champion Data stats.  They are the worst.  They have always been fraudsters.

    Look at their annual AA teams based on their stats, or even just their teams of the week.  The teams are diabolically bad.

    It's included so they can get their 'darling' Alex Rance to the top of the list.

    I work for Champion Data. What do you mean fraudsters? We just call it as it is.

    Rance has had about 400 kicked on him this year and one on one gets shot out of a cannon.

    Number 1! Neville Jetta... Surely!

    King of the one-on-ones is Nev!

    Well then, dig out the Nev and Oscar data and give us a look.

    While your at it, tell us how the data is compiled.

    If he's King then i'd love to see training footage of him on Melksham, who is also the one on one king of the AFL! (From an admittedly small sample size of games)

    Deafening silence, how long will it continue?

    Very surprised to see them rating Rance 1-1.  He's been smashed this year when he was isolated and forced to man up.  Jenkins and Melksham smashed him.

    It’s a race between him and Dangerfield in the ‘look at me’ cup.

    I would back in Nev every day of the week JD. He will be All Australian back pocket this year!

    I flat out do not believe that these 'one on one' statistics are accurate.  To see Rance or McGovern in a one v one contest is rare.

    They are both exceptional players, but also get great support through bodying and blocking from their team mates.

    They wanted a minimum sample set... They have set it at 60 contests... given we are only 11 weeks into this year not every player will have reached that mark... 

    All of champion data's stats do this sort of thing. They look over 2 year periods because they dont want to draw conclusions based on small samples...

    The biggest problem with Champion Data is that they don't show us everything... only the AFL and the media have access to all the stats they record. Give that to the public and suddenly we would get some useful insight... (and some much worse)

    That Stats Pro thing (clearly in no way Pro but 'Yay Marketing!') on the AFL website is a very, very, small step in the right direction but then they made it Telstra only which [censored] over the rest of us... the next best thing is the prospectus and by the time the ball is bounced round 1 the prospectus is completely out of date..

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
