Not surprised.

Their accuracy has been unsustainable recently. 15.4, 17.6, 18.8, 12.6.

You don't win prelims and GF's if you have less scoring shots than the oppo and have to rely on accuracy.

 

Hawthorn was 0-5 with a percentage of 64%. Their turnaround has been ridiculous.

The finals are going to fantastic this year. Glad to be back on board to watch neutral footy (hopefully) without the Pies in September.

How far can Freo, Dogs and Cats go are my curiosities? (And of course the Dees if we make it lol)

Hawks are such a wild turn of events, I can't comprehend them getting there and doing something, it's too weird. Get back down the bottom please.

I was listening to Hoyney and he still puts Carlton and Sydney MILES ahead of every other team in scoring from turn overs the most important stat for winning a flag. But Sydney has had a very average month and Brisbane are climbing . You can't go past any of those 3 teams to be there on GF day at present I think. But who knows.

Here is my expected scores ladder based on expected wins. Rather than distilling the expected scores for a given match down to a win/loss/draw, the xWin % for a given match is the probability of the team winning given the expected scores.

 

 

 

I wonder what the ladder would look like if you also included expected inside 50 kicks to leading forwards. 
 

I.e. if entries went to leading players as opposed to on top of/over/completely missing the target that doesn’t result in a score. 
 

Too time consuming I know, but I’d love to know. 

Ol Squiggle can actually vary a bit depending upon its own algorithms.

I often do it 3/5 times and take the 'mean' 

As such...

The Dogs are a real chance for the Expected Score Flag this year

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
