AFL Power Rankings: Round 13 2013

RISING UP

 

Port Adelaide move up another spot after beating the #2-ranked Sydney Swans.  The Power have only gained two spots in 2013, having fallen a long way behind the pack during 2012, but have gained 14 ranking points.    

 

FALLING DOWN

 

Sydney and Geelong both drop back a few points this week after losing to relatively lowly-ranked teams in Port and Brisbane, with the Cats moving down a spot to 4^th.

 

ALSO OF NOTE

 

I’m calling the Bulldogs just Western this week because there’s nothing much else to say, and watching them play on the weekend reminded me that I’m still annoyed that they changed to that silly name from Footscray.
