I have the VFL app and looked at the ladder and it has the usual wins, losses , draws ,% and points column. However the final column it has MR , does anyone know what MR stands for ? We are 67.6… whatever that means? And why is it on the ladder when it’s all about the points?
Match Ratio
It's less important now that we're in the last week of the season, but has more relevance during the season due to VFL teams having 4 byes - that means you'll often have teams having played a different number of games, so the MR (match ratio) gives a more accurate reflection of the ladder based on games played rather than just games won
Something I'm surprised we didn't see earlier this year in the AFL considering we had 'Round 0' and it took a while until all 18 teams were actually on the same number of games played
