MAFL 2011 : Team Dashboard for Round 24

/

The final MAFL Team Dashboard for season 2011 follows.

Here are a few final observations: 

  • The Roos, despite not making the Finals, have nonetheless finished the home-and-away season with a percentage above 100.
  • St Kilda and Sydney kicked only 275 and 267 goals respectively across their 22 matches, fewer than, for example, Melbourne, which finished 13th
  • Essendon conceded 326 in its 22 games, more goals than the 15th-placed Lions conceded
  • Port Adelaide kicked an amazingly low 188 behinds all season, 36 fewer than any other team
  • Adelaide, though finishing 14th on the ladder, were 5th best on Opponent Conversion Rate. They were also 9th in 1st terms and 8th in final terms
  • Brisbane, 15th on the ladder, finished 7th on Own Conversion Rate. They also won 2.5 games fewer than their scoring statistics suggest they should have. As well, they finished 11th on 1st terms and 10th on 3rd terms
  • Carlton ran 5th on the ladder but 14th on Own Conversion Rate. So good were their scoring statistics generally, they won 2 games fewer than the Win Production Function predicts
  • Collingwood finished as minor premiers but were 5th on Own Conversion Rate
  • Essendon came 8th but ranked 14th on Opponent Conversion Rate and 12th on 1st terms
  • Fremantle were 11th on the ladder but 15th on Own Conversion Rate. They won over 2 games more than their scoring statistics suggest they should have. They also finished 6th on 3rd term performances
  • Geelong finished 2nd but were 11th on Opponent Conversion Rate and 8th on 1st terms
  • Melbourne ranked 13th on the ladder but last on final terms
  • Port Adelaide finished second-last but were, astonishingly, second on Own Conversion Rate
  • Richmond came 12th but were 8th on Own Scoring Shots per Game and 16th on 1st terms
  • St Kilda wound up 6th but were 13th on Own Scoring Shots per Game and 2nd on Opponent Conversion Rate. They were also 1st on 1st terms, 10th on 2nd terms, and 12th on 3rd terms
  • Sydney were 7th on the ladder but 16th on Own Conversion Rate and 1st on Opponent Conversion Rate
  • West Coast finished 4th despite the twin handicaps of finishing 13th on Own Conversion Rate and 16th on Opponent Conversion Rate. They also finished 14th on 3rd terms
  • The Western Bulldogs came 10th but were 1st on Own Conversion Rate and 5th on 3rd term performances

 Finally, I'd note that: 

  • Collingwood won 82% of 2nd terms and more than doubled its opponents' scores in 2nd and final terms
  • The Gold Coast won less than 20% of its 1st, 2nd an 3rd terms. Only mercy, perhaps, allowed it to win 27% of final terms
  • Port Adelaide won only 18% of 2nd terms
  • Richmond won only 20% of 1st terms
  • St Kilda won 77% of 1st terms and recorded a percentage of 150, then won only 41% of 2nd and of 3rd terms, and 55% of final terms, recording a percentage of just 85 in 2nd terms in doing so
  • Sydney recorded a percentage of just 84 in 3rd terms
  • West Coast recorded a percentage of just 87 in 3rd terms
