With six teams having now played fewer games than the other 12, I'll refrain from providing any lengthy commentary about the most-recent MoS Team Dashboard, which appears below.

Note that, as per MoS Tradition, I order teams in the Dashboard on the basis of competition points scored as a proportion of the maximum possible, which means, for example, that this week I have Adelaide above West Coast since their 32 points have been earned from fewer games played, despite the Eagles' superior percentage.

The only observation I'll make this week is the continued, surprisingly low correlation between teams' ladder positions and their ranking on Own Scoring Shot and Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion. After this week, the rank correlations are:

• Ladder position with Own Scoring Shot Conversion Rate: +0.47
• Ladder position with Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion Rate: +0.38
• Ladder position with Difference between Own and Opponent Scoring Shot Conversion Rate: +0.44

What's driving success this season is not conversion, but Scoring Shot generation and concession, the relevant rank correlations being:

• Ladder position with Own Scoring Shot generation: +0.74
• Ladder position with Opponent Scoring Shot generation: +0.92
• Ladder position with Difference between Own and Opponent Scoring Shot generation: +0.88
