    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.

    I will enjoy the fireworks if Carlton finishes 3rd last again.

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

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
