AFL Power Rankings: Round 8 2013

RISING UP

Fremantle take Sydney’s spot in third place after holding the Swans to a draw at the SCG. The Dockers have been in very good form since the middle of 2012.

FALLING DOWN

Essendon drop further to 11th after losing at home to the 14th-ranked Lions. Could the Dons’ lowly rank comparative to their ladder position looklike ‘genius’ after all?

ALSO OF NOTE

Hawthorn has now taken top spot on the AFL ladder, to go along with its #1 ranking.

    1. That's correct. Like Footy Maths a win won't necessarily get you a gain in points because it depends on the strength of the opposition.
