    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: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
