Fixture Days' break differential

[joe444]

Is it just me, or is the days break teams are getting v. their opponent this year more lopsided than ever? Here's the number of days clubs are in deficit or behind others. The Saints are already one full round's worth ahead of everyone else.

Team​	Days​
St Kilda​	8​
Brisbane​	6​
Essendon​	5​
Adelaide​	4​
GWS​	4​
Melbourne​	4​
Richmond​	3​
Western Bulldogs​	1​
Collingwood​	0​
Hawthorn​	0​
Gold Coast​	-3​
North Melbourne​	-3​
Sydney​	-3​
West Coast​	-3​
Carlton​	-4​
Port Adelaide​	-4​
Fremantle​	-5​
Geelong​	-8​

Wouldn't this be massively skewed at the moment due to the early bye rounds?

Adding Interstate trips to this would be good to see as well. Maybe if St Kilda has done a heap of Perth or Brisbane trips they deserve the extra leg up that will come into play later in the season?

Also is this cumulative of the difference? Like for Geelong to be bottom is their difference like -2 days + -1 day + ... etc?

Not knowing the number of trips the WA clubs have done to Melbourne, Brisbane or Tassie each it is a little bullshit they are in the bottom.

Travel the most out of everyone and have the second worst break differential against opponents?

Yep sounds fair

Our five day break after this round is something I didn’t even notice until now. Play Sunday at the G then back it up Friday night at Optus.

Eagles are 6 days back from a 1.5 hour coach drive from Gold Coast plus 5 hour flight from Brisbane against the 9 day bombers

I wouldn't trust those stats. I have them at +4 after this week. Hawthorn are at -4

Hawthorn and Geelong are always going to be worse off early in the season due to Easter Monday

Unfortunately there's also nothing stopping supporters of Victorian clubs from spewing dumb sh*t
