Quarters Won Ladder 2021

Interesting stat revealed during yesterday's game on ABC radio.

This season MFC leads the comp in the number of behinds kicked.

Late in the 4th quarter we were 62 goals...62 behinds

Definitely something to work on..my guess is that ideally goals should be double the behinds figure.

    Just imagine if we had kicked straight over the 5 weeks. 
     

    Jones is very lucky to be in the side. He has absolutely no right to that position if he misses absolute “sitters”

    Keep them practicing Mr. Williams

    We've actually kicked 65 goals and 72 behinds for the season, only Freo and North have worse conversion than us. Against us we've had 47 goals and 31 points kicked, so teams are very accurate, GWS kicked 11.2! Only Collingwood have a higher goals/points against ratio. 

    If we had the average goal/point ration for and against, our percentage would be sitting up at 177% (we'd still be sitting 2nd!)

    We also have yet to lose a last quarter, and the only other team to also do this we play this weekend coming.

    Imagine thinking your team was primed for a crack at the top four and five rounds into the season you’ve won the least amount of quarters in the league.

    Less than North ffs.

    As we have not had leading forwards up the centre we have forwards going wide . The wider you lead  the chances of goals are reduced. Fritsch is a good example )

    I don't find that surprising at all. Imagine where our girls side would sit with such a stat.

    Brisbane are also 5-0 for final quarters. But we do have the highest 4thQ % - 151 - 74 - keeping in mind we've kicked 25 4thQ behinds as well! Need to hold on to Burgess any way we can.

    Thanks Skuit, overlooked that. I love that we've ran out games so well, the Burgess method he put in place last year has clearly continued on. We were hurt much worse than other teams last year with the shorten quarters IMO. 

    I'm wondering if we have a much larger percentage of goals against us close to goal, say within 15 meters, compared to the competition. Just thinking that our defense is doing so well that teams might be bombing long and hoping for the chaos ball to get over the line, so the goal/behind percentage might even out over time. Anyone know where those stats can be found?

    Ideally we should never kick a behind...

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
