PK it may not be a Q&A session. I just hoping it is. I've told the guy running the gig that I would like to ask a few questions and he said that I had to go easy on him. He know me a bit too well.

Correct answer: neither BTW I've helped you out on plotting the two seperate phases.

Thats a good graph. It highlights the Camry Crows decline real well. You can even see that from 97 onwards the declines are parallel. However as the third order polynomial regression shows there is a nose dive after 2008. In far there are two distinct phases to the Camry Crows crowd numbers...

Seriously? After a game like that your first instinct is to get to Bay 13 to troll Port. Exciting times Effete Crow. :thumbsu:

Regression analysis has always been used on time based data. Time based regression analysis Can you do a 5 year moving average? A linear regression also shows the obvious downward trend. No they also explain the correct technique.

I lost count after the first showdown. Sorry.

Such a witty retort. You could have gone one better and said "Nah you are".:rolleyes:

Haha you dont understand, do you sonny. I just gave you two math websites that explain how polynomial trending is done. Here's a few more ... http://cowles.econ.yale.edu/P/cm/m06/m06-06.pdf http://www.gigawiz.com/aabel3.html http://math.tutorvista.com/statistics/trend-line.html#

Someone else without the intellectual abilty to understand my point?

What you don't understand my point? *Face Palm*

That one was already going to be asked. I heard a rumour that you were going to be there.

I did address it. West Coast only play in a 43K stadium. Their crowds are capped. You guys averaging 38K in a 51K stadium is patheitc.

Yes it can and it is used a lot. http://jcflowers1.iweb.bsu.edu/rlo/trends.htm http://biol09.biol.umontreal.ca/PLcourses/Polynomial_regression.pdf So when will the 10 year moving average identify the downward trend that started in 2008? If you weren't an absolute idiot you would realise that...

Wow you're an idiot.:rolleyes: Club P W D L For Agst % PP Port Adelaide 347 175 4 168 32144 32722 98.2 708 Fremantle 391 161 0 230 34447 38066 90.5 644

OK we are still quite finished the list. Brisbane: 01, 02 and 03 Threepeat Carlton: Getting Brock McLean because he hates clubs that tank For the times they cheated and didn't get caught. Collingwood: 2010 flag and Eddie using Channel 9 to promote them Essendon: Making the Grand Final in...

Who won the 5 before that and the first 5?

What's the head to head count?

20K hey??? 2000 Round 8 Venue: W.A.C.A. Date: 29-Apr-2000 Att: 26,554 West Coast 4-6 8-9 9-15 15-18 108 Wstn Bulldogs 3-7 9-9 11-12 15-12 102

That's an indictment on Ross Lyon coached teams.:thumbsu:

Is it relevant to look at how your club was going just before the AFL saved it from going around the S-bend? 2000 Round 17 Venue: W.A.C.A. Date: 01-Jul-2000 Att: 10,826 Fremantle 4-5 6-5 9-8 12-10 82 Port Adelaide 1-1 1-8 3-12 8-16 64

"I'm sorry Keith but that is not good enough anymore. That is the same diatribe we have been hearing for the last few years. Please answer my questions or lose another member."

The 3rd order polynomial trendline is not a prediction ... it is there to identify trends. PS. Thanks for all those graphs showing the Camry Crows crowds have trended down in the last few years. ;)

You can't but you can create an incentive for clubs not to tank.

Followed up with "Why should I renew my membership if I don't know where the club and my money is going?"

Followed up with "Why should I renew my membership if I don't kknow where my money or the club is going?"

Yes and if Hawthorn win this year's flag then 5% of Essendon supporters will suddenly microwave their memberships and buy a Hawks one next year.:rolleyes:

True but what can you do to stop teams from preparing for finals? If a club rest a player due to general soreness how can the AFL prove it wasn't warranted?

Apparently KT is going to give a talk at the Royal Exhibition Hotel here in Sydney before the GWS game tomorrow. It will be a small intimate crowd of about 50 people. I have a few loaded questions I'm going to fire at him but can anyone else think of a few questions that they would like to have...

But that's not tanking for better draft picks thats tanking to increase your chance of a better finals result and possibly a worse draft pick. Hawthorn did something similar last year when they sent the Box Hill Hawks up to the Gold Coast for their last minor round game. Collingwood did...
