Speaking on AFL 360 on Wednesday night, the three-time premiership player said McGovern’s spot in the team has to be under question. Collingwood son of a gun Josh Daicos has kicked an extraordinary goal to get his side over the line against a gallant Sydney Swans at the Gabba. Izak Rankine had the game on his boot in the dying moments. In such a turbulant season, a round-by-round graphical presentation of AFL ladder positions highlights a few truisms.Port Adelaide have displayed their strong position throughout by holding down top spot since round one, Collingwood's position has fluctuated wildly, GWS have hardly set the world on fire all season and there have been general downward trajectories for Essendon, Gold Coast, Hawthorn and North Melbourne.Hopes were high for Essendon after they sat in fourth spot in round three but their fortunes (not to mention their percentage) have dropped since, resulting in the following ladder positions: seventh (round eight), 10th (round 10), 11th (round 12) and 12th (round 13).Similarly, Gold Coast were up as high as second after just four rounds, but it's been a bit of a struggle since as the season has effectively caught up with them: 7th (round seven), 10th (round eight), 12th (round 10) and now 14th (round 13).In contrast, Melbourne's graph has an upward curve. The Suns led by as much as 22 points during their clash against Essendon, but four consecutive goals put the Bombers up by a kick.Some Ben King brilliance led to a goal and the levelling of scores, before both sides traded behinds, leading to Rankine’s eventual mark in the dying stages.The ever-confident Rankine took his time lining up, before his bizarre kick didn’t head toward goal nor centre up for another forward to attempt a mark.Instead, the ball landed somewhere in between, a fitting representation of a match in which neither side was able to truly edge away with the four points.Essendon’s defensive efforts in the final quarter were as erratic as the game in general.

In such a turbulant season, a round-by-round graphical presentation of AFL ladder positions highlights a few truisms. Adelaide is likely to enter the 2020 AFL Draft with its best-ever hand and there will be plenty of local talent for the club to consider at the top-end.

Sean Lemmens had a genuine chance to snap a score but missed his moment and was tackled by Martin Gleeson.It was a game that didn’t have a match-winning moment, but the final few moments were as riveting as footy can get.A NOTE ABOUT RELEVANT ADVERTISING: We collect information about the content (including ads) you use across this site and use it to make both advertising and content more relevant to you on our network and other sites.
