After last week'sย look at which clubs have received the most free kicks and who have been penalised the most, figures have been released showing free kick numbers for teams inside their forward 50.
After having the second best free kick differential through the opening eight rounds, North Melbourne understandably sit atop this list, with 31 on their free kicks for coming within goalscoring range.
Geelong and Port Adelaide round out the top three with 30 and 29 free kicks respectively, while at the other end of the table, Blues fans may feel a little hard done by.
Carlton have only received 15 free kicks inside their forward 50 through eight rounds, which is less than half of those given to North Melbourne.
GWS occupy the second lowestย spot in the table, with just 17 decisions going their way inside 50.
Numbers taken from the opening eight rounds, excludes Friday night's Geelong v Western Bulldogs match.
