2013 AFL Power Rankings

[SydneyPhilly]

Essendon are the only team to have won a game this yeat

obvious top of the ladder

 

[VanBerlo=God]

Always loved it when Sydney won and moved down the ladder last year.

 

[Kozivan]

in.

 

[TP86]

facepalm

 

[Hagla]

Didn't roby increase his beginning stake by 200-300% last year?? I think I might actually follow his bets!

He also said he tipped more right then he actually did (from a pure tipping perspective). I remember adding up his tips, and for him to be on what he said he was he would have needed a 100% tipping rate from all the games he didn't give a tip on. Considering his public tips came in at around 60-70%, I really doubt he got 100% of the games right that he didn't make public.

 

[CharacterFirst]

Why not?

I must admit, he has started well.

0-2

 

[Brisbane2013]

why isn't Brisbane on top? we won the nab cup! what more must we do to impress you guys !!!

 

[Oneiros]

I'm looking forward to us advancing up the ladder after this result.

 

[VanBerlo=God]

Nice pick, looks like Roby is off to a cracker.

 

[DarwinRoo]

That's actually one of the few things Roby has got right. I'd expect us to finish higher on the ladder than North this year, we're capable of improving too with our young players.

Did you expect the same last year aswell?

 

[The_Ru]

This ought to be worthwhile again...

Hawthorn #1 and rightfully so.

How are you defining rightful?

Were the best team, you will see.

 

[The Speaker]

You were the best team in 2008.

But recent performance suggests not. Close, but nothing 'rightful' about it.

You will agree very soon.

 

[The Speaker]

You will agree very soon.

Sounds ominous. But empty.

 

[Dirty Bird]

Were the best team, you will see.

You're not wrong there.
You were once the best team. Not anymore, don't even have to wait, it's a known fact you were the best in the 80s.
But now? Yes, beating up on a couple of cupcakes makes you the best

ps. it's the lack of an apostrophe which is your downfall right now. Just like 70% of people lie when it comes to re-signings when they say players resign

 

[TD]

How good is Brisbane?

But only Brisbane move up one spot because of the new NAB cup modifier. Although they could move up one spot to 11th this week if Essendon (11th) start with a hefty loss.

Well done to Brisbane for moving up a spot this week after Essendon suffered a hefty loss against Adelaide (after adjusting for umpiring decisions)

FAQ
Why did a team move down the rankings this week if they won, when another team that lost moved up the rankings?

Because I'm an attention whore and I want people get outraged and give me more attention.

Aren’t umpiring decisions subjective, so how are they equated in a mathematical model?
Every game is recorded and umpiring decisions are reviewed until a satisfactory conclusion is made and weighted accordingly... LOL. did you guys honestly believe me when I said that? I dont have a staff of people doing this for me so I just make my own guesses as to how I think the umpiring decisions went. p.s I dont really have time to watch every game over and over again.

How can you know if an umpiring decision was going to result in a goal and therefore be accurately weighted?
Its all my opinion. We all have one but I pretend mine is more important by building this so called ranking system

FAQ section fixed above.

Were the best team, you will see.

the difference between knowing you're shit and knowing your shit

 

[Bigeasy]

How about a top 50 players rankings Roby. It would make more sense than Sheehan's.

 

[Ochre]

How about a top 50 players rankings Roby. It would make more sense than Sheehan's.

You can see the first forty-something players on that list by checking Hawthorn's list

 

[AlterRob]

YES! MY BODY IS READY!

 

[Roby]

The first betting discrepancy has been found, the rankings predicted (yet again) the Blues to get up, this time by 20 points. It appears the Tigers are making ground but not enough to get the four points tomorrow night. So the bet is $1.5 on Carlton -2.5 line at $1.91 with Centrebet.

That said, I do hope the Tigers get up.

I will post tomorrow night after all the teams are out if any more discrepancies are found.
