As we all know sometimes stats can be misleading but i thought this was a perfect example. Is St Kilda's No 2 placing better than their No 6 placing just because it rates 100% ? Also reading more of the original post there is plenty of debate as to when the stats should be taken from/to eg up to 1989 = VFL 1990 onwards = AFL.

I guess what im really saying is who gives a crap what the stats say, The Tigers are the best team in the league and we all know it what the others dont know doesnt matter.
