MAFL 2013 : Team Dashboard for Round 18

Time, perhaps, again to look at the significant differences between each team's competition ladder position and their ranking on the various Team Dashboard metrics.

Here are some of the major differences: 

  • Carlton, 9th on the ladder, are 4th on Scoring Shots per game, and 1st on Opponent Conversion Rate
  • Collingwood, 7th on the ladder, are 13th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion and 16th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Essendon, 4th on the ladder, are 8th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Fremantle, 5th on the ladder, are 14th on Scoring Shots per game
  • Geelong, 2nd on the ladder, are 13th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Gold Coast, 14th on the ladder, are 5th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • GWS, 18th on the ladder, are 9th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Hawthorn, 1st on the ladder, are 12th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • The Kangaroos, 10th on the ladder, are 2nd on Own Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Melbourne, 17th on the ladder, are 8th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion and 9th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Port Adelaide, 8th on the ladder, are 12th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion and 15th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Richmond, 6th on the ladder, are 15th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion
  • St Kilda, 16th on the ladder, are 11th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion and 11th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • Sydney, 3rd on the ladder, are 6th on Own Scoring Shot Conversion
  • West Coast, 11th on the ladder, are 7th on Own Scoring Shots per game, and 18th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion
  • The Western Bulldogs, 15th on the ladder, are 3rd on Own Scoring Shot Conversion and 8th on Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion

As is apparent from the disparity between ladder position and Scoring Shot Conversion rates laid bare by this list, in 2013 Scoring Shot Conversion rates have mattered little - instead it's been about Scoring Shot production and prevention.

(The Roos are currently the only team who have won or lost (in their case, lost) more than 2 games more than their scoring statistics would suggest they should have.)
