After ranking all 18 clubs for how their backline, midfield and forward lines fared this year, we’ve combined all three lists to rank every club’s list as a whole for 2025.<\/p>\n

Each club was valued 1-18 for each third of the field, assessing how those groups combined throughout the year, with Brisbane coming in at No.1 for both defence and midfield, while the Bulldogs were crowned the best attack despite missing out on the top eight.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here are the final list rankings for 2025 following our three-part series, starting with 18th and counting down to the top club…<\/p>\n

18West Coast<\/p>\n

Backline: 18th
Midfield: 18th
Forward Line: 17th<\/p>\n

There’s no surprise that the 2025 wooden spooners rank the worst in the competition in two of three categories.<\/p>\n

The Eagles, amid their rebuild, struggled to compete across the trio of lines, but have unearthed some exciting talent, headed by Harley Reid<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Andrew McQualter’s first year in charge showcased a new game plan and players in new positions, and, understandably, faced a lot of teething problems.<\/p>\n
