    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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
