These stats are supplied by old mate @WheeloRatings - thanks, we're often bereft of data when trying to make sense of what we observe. For those that bemoan that we are not offensive enough. 2022 2021 Team For Against % Diff For Against % Diff Melbourne 25.9 17.4 148.4% +8.4 25.2 17.2 146.4% +8.0 Fremantle 22.9 16.4 139.2% +6.4 22.0 22.7 96.6% -0.8 Geelong 27.1 19.7 137.9% +7.4 22.3 20.2 110.5% +2.1 Brisbane 25.3 20.3 124.6% +5.0 25.2 20.7 121.8% +4.5 St Kilda 23.9 20.7 115.6% +3.2 20.9 22.5 92.5% -1.7 Carlton 25.0 21.8 114.8% +3.2 22.5 24.2 93.2% -1.6 Sydney 25.0 21.8 114.8% +3.2 23.7 21.3 111.0% +2.3 Port Adelaide 23.3 20.3 114.8% +3.0 22.7 20.5 111.0% +2.3 Western Bulldogs 23.9 21.1 113.2% +2.8 24.8 19.8 125.2% +5.0 Collingwood 23.7 22.9 103.4% +0.8 19.6 21.5 91.3% -1.9 Richmond 25.4 25.6 99.6% -0.1 21.7 22.3 97.6% -0.5 Gold Coast 21.7 22.2 97.5% -0.6 19.3 23.8 81.3% -4.5 Hawthorn 22.8 25.6 89.1% -2.8 19.7 22.8 86.5% -3.1 Greater Western Sydney 20.9 24.4 85.5% -3.6 21.5 22.9 93.8% -1.4 Adelaide 20.8 25.3 82.0% -4.6 21.2 24.4 86.9% -3.2 Essendon 21.9 26.9 81.4% -5.0 23.2 22.0 105.7% +1.3 North Melbourne 15.7 28.9 54.2% -13.2 18.5 26.4 70.3% -7.8 West Coast 14.8 28.6 51.8% -13.8 21.2 23.2 91.6% -2.0 League Average 2022 22.7 22.7 My interpretation of the table is that we are better than 3 shots on goal a game than the league average ; and 5 shots less a goal on game better than the league average against. Now I aint a maths boffin, so happy for some guidance or other interpretations - but this makes me quite excited that against the expected average, 9 rounds in - we are 8 shots on goal better than the average opposition. I can't quite recall the shots on goal vs point % - but I suspect it's around 50% - so 4goals 4 equates to a 28 point margin. Hello, that looks familiar - it's a 4-5 goal win...

Wonder if Brayshaw is out looking at property in Peppermint Grove this morning...🤷‍♂️

Such an accurate comment: re the expectations of supporters *Sigh*... each and every week, there will be elements of the game that are not executed perfectly. Each and every week the FD and athletes are refining processes... as well as.... updated processes relevant to the opposition. Our game is based on defence first, and as a consequence not exposing ourselves if we turn it over. Some wag on here suggested we are not being offensive enough... for me at least, perhaps that needs to be refined as a metric beyond measuring how many goals you kick compared to the opposition. We ostensibly tripled their scoring shots. That's fantastic. That's elite. Only the Western Bulldogs vs Collingwood matched us with that. Not Brisbane, and certainly not Freo. That's a theme that has played out throughout the first 9 rounds. We've done it a few times. Brisbane did have one week of 41 scoring shots vs the 12 to the Kangaroos.

@WheeloRatings - could you tell us what herbs and spices make up your attack and defence metrics? Cheerio.

Can't get over the expectation levels on the game day thread...

my google was playing up :)😇

just quietly... a marginal error.

whats wrong with ocean grove?

Smash em by 186... FMD

just updated it 🤷‍♂️ - their lowest score "lowest score watch (tm)" is 41. 😍

7 scoring shots in 2.5 quarters of football. [censored] elite. even if it is against the Manangatang thirds....

I'd be really satisfied with 30 scoring shots to 10

Too much to ask for a GC, GWS, Melbourne Trifecta?

One lens...

I'm on clearance watch for Oliver. Surely he can rack up 14-15?

As you do on a Sunday 🤩...I wonder how Wally is doing?

And on that note...I wonder how Matthew Knights feels about the current situation...

Paddy Ryder, take a bow.

billions. damn fine player when he isn't throwing incidental elbows, or being clumsy with knee...

that was Frost displaying an example of peak Frost.

and the absolute rage on the Game Day Forum will be intense!

What's the achievement specifically?
