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..

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
