Statistically Who is Better and Where?

Melbourne Demons are better in points against per match and for the season, winning margin, disposal efficiency, less points conceded, and a higher reliability to win after leading at halftime.

Quick Insight

Collingwood faces a pivotal game against Melbourne at the MCG on Friday night in Round 24, needing a significant percentage boost and other results to fall in their favour to keep hopes of a top-eight finish alive. Their premiership is hanging by a thread, but they’ll be looking to go down fighting. Last weekend’s win over Brisbane, where they erased an 18-point deficit in the final six minutes, showcased the Magpies’ never-say-die attitude. Collingwood has developed a knack for winning close games, having lost just two of their last 16 matches decided by a single goal or less.

Melbourne, on the other hand, comes into this match off a strong 117-63 win over Gold Coast at Carrara. While they have little more than pride to play for, the Demons looked sharp in their last outing. In the previous encounter between these two sides, Collingwood triumphed on the King’s Birthday, winning 89-51, with Josh Daicos shining with 34 disposals.

Outcome Prediction:

Final Scores: Geelong Cats 107, West Coast Eagles 63

Statistically Who is Better and Where?

Geelong Cats are better in average points for and against per match and scored this season, winning and losing margins, current form, reliability to win after leading at halftime, and the halftime fulltime double.

West Coast Eagles are better in disposal efficiency, and have a better efficiency inside 50.

Quick Insight

Geelong enters Saturday’s matchup at GMHBA Stadium against West Coast seeking a substantial percentage boost to remain in the hunt for a home qualifying final. A win will secure the Cats a top-four spot for the 14th time in the past 18 seasons. However, their hopes of finishing second likely slipped away with last week’s 107-89 loss to St Kilda, where they squandered a 33-point lead by halftime.

West Coast, meanwhile, is coming off a tough 99-34 defeat to a depleted Carlton side at Optus Stadium, marking their 17th loss of the season. The last time these teams met was in Gather Round 2023 at Adelaide Oval, where Geelong secured a comfortable 136-89 victory. The Cats are aiming to continue their dominance over West Coast at Kardinia Park, having won their last eight matchups there by an average of 67.6 points.

Statistically Who is Better and Where?

Gold Coast SUNS are better in almost every metric.

Richmond Tigers are only marginally better in efficiency inside 50.

Quick Insight

Richmond’s rough 2024 season will wrap up at the MCG on Saturday afternoon when they face Gold Coast, capping what is set to be the worst record in the club’s history. With just eight premiership points so far, the Tigers are looking to set another record falling below their previous low of 12 points, set back in 1912 and 1960. Their latest setback came in the form of a 131-68 defeat against Hawthorn at the same venue last Sunday, a game in which they were outplayed early, trailing 57-7 by the end of the first quarter.

Richmond’s season started on a sour note against Gold Coast back in the Opening Round at People First Stadium, where they fell 99-60. A sluggish start was once again their downfall, as they found themselves behind 74-7 late in the second quarter before mounting a late rally. Gold Coast, meanwhile, comes into this match after a disappointing 117-63 loss to Melbourne at home. The Suns have now dropped four of their last five games and will close out another season still without their first finals appearance.

Final Score Prediction:

Gold Coast SUNS 90-85

North Melbourne Kangaroos are only better in disposal efficiency by a mere 0.1%.

Quick Insight

Hawthorn heads into Saturday’s game in Launceston needing a victory to secure their spot in September. Despite a rocky start to the 2024 season, going 0-5, the Hawks have turned their fortunes around with a remarkable surge up the ladder, winning 13 of their last 17 games. Their recent form includes a commanding 131-68 victory over Richmond at the MCG last weekend. This turnaround began with a 113-68 win over North Melbourne in Round 6 at Marvel Stadium, where Jai Newcombe and Conor Nash starred with 32 disposals each, and Dylan Moore chipped in four goals from 20 touches. The Hawks have dominated their recent meetings with North Melbourne, winning five straight games by an average of 35.6 points.

North Melbourne, meanwhile, continues to struggle, coming off a heavy 138-42 loss to the Western Bulldogs at Docklands last weekend, their biggest defeat since Round 16, 2022. The Roos have now lost five of their last six games, dropping to 3-19 for the season.

Win Percentages: Lions 86.19%, Bombers 13.23%

Statistically Who is Better and Where?

Brisbane Lions are better in most metrics.

Essendon Bombers are marginally better disposal efficiency.

Quick Insight

After missing out on a top-four finish last weekend, Brisbane returns to the Gabba on Saturday night with the aim of securing a home elimination final by defeating Essendon. Last week, the Lions looked set for a significant win at the MCG, leading Collingwood by 18 points late in the fourth quarter, only to fall short in a 79-78 loss. This collapse raises questions about Brisbane’s premiership potential, but they remain strong favourites against an Essendon team that has lost five of its last six games.

Essendon’s latest setback was a 98-59 defeat to Sydney at Marvel Stadium, despite winning the inside 50 count by six. In fact, the Bombers have won the inside 50 battle in each of their last eight games but have averaged just 77.8 points during that stretch. Brisbane comfortably handled Essendon in their Round 9, 2023 meeting, winning 87-45, with Joe Daniher leading the way with six goals.

Statistically Who is Better and Where?

Sydney Swans are better in average points and against, winning margin, efficiency inside 50, and reliability to win after leading at halftime.

Adelaide Crows have a smaller average losing margin, and better disposal efficiency.

Quick Insight

With the minor premiership virtually locked in, Sydney will conclude its home and away season against Adelaide at the SCG on Saturday night. The Swans secured their 16th win of 2024 with a 98-59 victory over Essendon at Marvel Stadium last Friday, driven by Isaac Heeney’s standout performance of 22 disposals and three goals. Sydney has thrived when Heeney has hit these benchmarks, boasting a 13-2 record when he has 20+ disposals and at least one goal, compared to a 2-4 record when he falls short of those marks.

One of those 13 wins came in Round 14 against Adelaide, where Sydney dominated 109-67 at Adelaide Oval. Joel Amartey was the star that night, kicking a career-high nine goals. Adelaide, on the other hand, enters this match after a disappointing 80-58 loss to Port Adelaide last week. Locked into 15th place for 2024, the Crows will be playing primarily for pride on Saturday.

Western Bulldogs are better in almost every metric available.

GWS Giants have a smaller average losing margin.

Quick Insight

The Bulldogs, fresh off a dominant 138-42 victory over North Melbourne last weekend, need a win to secure their spot in the top eight and lock in a home elimination final. Sam Darcy played a standout role in that game, kicking seven goals from 20 disposals and contributing to 15 scoring involvements.

GWS, on the other hand, has already guaranteed their spot in September and will be pushing for a home qualifying final after extending their winning streak to seven with a 101-92 win over Fremantle at ENGIE Stadium last weekend. The Bulldogs claimed the earlier meeting between these sides in Round 10, winning 70-43 at ENGIE Stadium despite an inefficient performance of just eight goals from 30 scoring shots. Historically, the Bulldogs have had the upper hand, winning six of their last seven matchups against the Giants.

Port Adelaide Power are better average points for per match, efficiency inside 50, wins this season, and a 100% reliability to win after leading at halftime.

Quick Insight

While the implications for the top eight hinge on results from earlier matches, this game could still play a pivotal role depending on how those outcomes unfold. Fremantle had the chance to position themselves as high as second on the ladder but faltered in consecutive narrow losses to Essendon (90-89), Geelong (73-62), and GWS (101-92), falling by a combined total of just 21 points.

Port Adelaide, on the other hand, continues to build momentum, with last weekend’s 80-58 Showdown win over Adelaide marking their seventh victory in their last eight games, putting them in prime position for a home qualifying final. However, they will be without Dan Houston, who faces a suspension that will see him sidelined for several weeks. This will be the second meeting between the two sides this season, with Port Adelaide edging out Fremantle in a 66-63 game back in Round 5.
