MatterOfStats 2014 : Team Dashboard for Round 4

The latest Team Dashboard includes the following pieces of information:

  • Carlton have scored more behinds than any of the teams currently sitting inside the Top 8. But, they've also scored nine fewer goals than any of those teams.
  • Collingwood are the only team in the top 10, and one of only two teams in the top 15 (the other being the Gold Coast), to have registered more behinds than goals.
  • Melbourne have conceded fewer goals than the nine teams sitting directly above them on the competition ladder. They've also scored 10 goals fewer than any other team in the competition, however, having racked up less than 2 goals per quarter on average so far this season.
  • The Brisbane Lions have recorded almost 15 fewer scoring shots per game than have their opponents and are the only team to have conceded more than 30 scoring shots per game.
  • Port Adelaide and Hawthorn are the only teams to have recorded more than 30 scoring shots per game.
  • The Western Bulldogs have the best scoring shot conversion rate of any team, their 65.4% marginally superior to Hawthorn's 62.9%. The Dogs have registered only 19.5 scoring shots per game though to the Hawks' 31.0.
  • The Brisbane Lions are still yet to record their first winning quarter and have been outscored by more than 2:1 by their opponents in 2nd and 3rd quarters. No other team has a sub-50 percentage for any single quarter.
  • Collingwood have outscored their opponents, on average, in only a single quarter, the 4th and even then only barely. Regardless, they sit in 9th place on the competition ladder.
  • Fremantle struggle only in 1st terms where they've won just 38% of the time and registered a 76 percentage. They outscore their opponents by over 2:1 in 3rd terms, however, the best percentage for this term of any team.
  • Hawthorn outscore their opponents by almost 3:1 in 2nd terms, their 273 being the highest percentage for any team in any single quarter.
  • Sydney outscore their opponents by about 3:2 in 1st terms but are outscored by their opponents in every other quarter, especially the 4th.
