    North Melbourne have a better list than us, champion data lists are rediculous, don’t take enough variables into account

    North are 6 places above Brisbane

    I think that sums up how useful this list is.

    I see this as a positive

    I assume you mean judging on their past rankings. I agree.

    We only need to worry if Kane Cornes predicts us to win the flag.

    We don’t need to worry DL, Cornes has named the 6 teams that can win it and we are not one of them.

    And C Data had the Bulldogs at 15 in 2019, 2nd this year.

    We have a better list this year but have slid back to 12.

    Intereresting...

    I guess it all makes for a good talking point but as with last years rankings it has no actual relevance into how the season will pan out.

    Yes , champion data and the Media's treating the stats/rankings they come up with as gospel annoys the crap out of me

    If we only finish 12th next year i will eat my hat.

    Put that list right next to the one showing games lost to injury and see how it looks.

    Piffle.

    "Melbourne was the big slider in the rankings year on year. The Demons were rated the best list before last season but are 12th entering 2020."

    "The rankings are based purely on individual talent and are not linked to overall team statistics or system.
    Champion Data’s new ratings formula this year takes into account individual players’ output, game time, what position they play, what they contribute to each position, durability and how likely they are to be selected."

    Interesting that arguably our list has improved on last season yet we have dropped so far in the rankings.

    The "durability" and "how likely they are to be selected" would be massive factors for us after last year's horrendous injury run and how many changes we made week on week IMO.

    Garlett and Lewis probably had great statistical value last year despite being completely finished. I wonder how they’ve valued Jones.

    The good news is apart from Gawn who surely can’t go up another level again we have so many players who can improve. 

    Not sure the Dogs are 2nd but I think they belong in the top 5. After that the gap between 6-17 can’t be all that wide. North won 10 games, Freo won 9. Unless Hill and Langdon are now Judd and Ablett the gap between the lists can’t be all that big.

    North at number 6 gave me a chuckle.

    Bulldogs at number 2 almost as outrageous.

    Wish we had the bulldogs list. Reckon they will win a couple of flags over the next 5 years.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
