Re: Round 13 Free Kick Differential Ladder
Free kicks are largely irrelevant, except:
1. If incorrectly paid to a player simulating excessive contact aka "taking a dive" eg Bugg
2. If incorrectly paid due an umpire guessing that fast hands has to equate to a throw eg WB mids every week
2. If never paid to a player infringed in a marking contest - whether it be held, arms chopped or tunnelled eg Tom Boyd

Re: Round 13 Free Kick Differential Ladder
So the 'hard done by' teams (differential of -20+) are sitting 2nd and 6th, while the teams with a positive differential (plus 20+) are sitting 7th, 9th, 15th, 17th and 18th.
Says a lot about the value of the stat.
