AFL Power Rankings: Round 13 2014

RISING UP

Melbourne and Greater Western Sydney were diabolical in 2013, but have become merely bad in 2014. Both teams scored a win on the weekend, and have gained about 30 rankings points each in 2014; that is, they are considered about five goals better. This week is the first week neither of them have been ranked last since Round 14 2012.

FALLING DOWN

St. Kilda’s 96 point loss to Geelong, coupled with GWS’ comfortable win in Brisbane, sends the Saints to the bottom of the rankings for the first since I started compiling them. Apart from Brisbane, the Saints’ have lost the most ranking points so far in 2014.

ALSO OF NOTE

Hawthorn, Sydney, Fremantle and Port Adelaide are now the clear top four teams – will they be the preliminary finalists in 2014?
