Dug up some stats confirming what we all knew anyway. The fact we are so far behind the rest is shocking. No guess for picking who gets the most frees up forward for Port. Thought the Bombers and Adelaide might be higher up.

1 Port Adelaide 28/215 13%
2 Carlton 25/190 13%
3 Brisbane 24/218 11%
4 Hawthorn 23/199 12%
5 West Coast 22/260 8%
6 Fremantle 19/211 9%
7 Melbourne 19/199 10%
8 Kangaroos 18/207 9%
9 Collingwood 17/226 8%
10 St Kilda 17/186 9%
11 Western Bulldogs 17/212 8%
12 Geelong 15/184 8%
13 Adelaide 14/215 7%
14 Essendon 14/218 6%
15 Richmond 14/185 8%
16 Sydney 12/217 6%

Nice to be able to go into a game knowing you'll get close to two shots on goal without even thinking about it. Bleating to the umps has got us nowhere, what else can we do.
