Last year's late season form is usually a good indicator.

[D_One]

Over the news I have noticed that late season form is usually a good indicator of a team's early season form the following year.

Here is a premiership table of the last seven minor round games played by the 17 clubs.

Pos	Club		   P	   W	   L	   For	  Agst	     %	  PP
  1	Hawthorn	   7	   7	   0	   824	   470	 175.3	  28
  2	West Coast	   7	   7	   0	   793	   519	 152.8	  28
  3	Geelong		   7	   6	   1	   998	   477	 209.2	  24
  4	Collingwood	   7	   6	   1	   830	   543	 152.9	  24
  5	St Kilda	   7	   5	   2	   673	   458	 146.9	  20
  6	Carlton		   7	   4	   3	   693	   546	 126.9	  16
  7	North Melbourne	   7	   4	   3	   729	   642	 113.6	  16
  8	Sydney		   7	   4	   3	   657	   593	 110.8	  16
  9	Essendon	   7	   4	   3	   702	   839	  83.7	  16
 10	Richmond	   7	   3	   4	   639	   714	  89.5	  12
 11	Camry Crows	   7	   3	   4	   604	   737	  82.0	  12
 12	Wstn Bulldogs	   7	   2	   5	   713	   780	  91.4	   8
 13	Brisbane Lions	   7	   1	   6	   641	   736	  87.1	   4
 14	Melbourne	   7	   1	   6	   571	   920	  62.1	   4
 15	Port Adelaide	   7	   1	   6	   546	   961	  56.8	   4
 16	Gold Coast	   7	   0	   7	   471	   857	  55.0	   0
 17	Fremantle	   7	   0	   7	   423	   770	  54.9	   0

Immediate analysis suggests that North's late season form shows that they could be a bit of a bolter this year. It also suggests that clubs that think they are on the rise such as Essendon, Richmond, Camry Crows and Melbourne showed very little late last year.

The biggest surprise is that it also suggests that Fremantle is going to be a big pile of steaming shit again next year.

 

[Shawt]

Funny, Fremantle's 7 losses in that time, also reflect how many senior players they had available for selection most weeks.

I still don't see what this has to do with a Shit Fight though

Since when is Freo being a big pile of steaming shit a surprise?

 

[chefmeister]

So GC top Freo on %...
Well then, that's 4 shit sides they beat last year.

Still looking for an angle myself Shawt. Shows Port & Adelaide are going to be crap (can not really dispute that fact). I am sure there is some further usefull stats coming.
This could be just another look at me moment from big D, the attention seeking whore.

 

[hawkman]

Waiting for the 1 game form guide to put Port in the 8

Or he could use the 2 or 3 game form to put Port above Adelaide

D is very predictable.

 

[SA1NTER]

#5 Not too bad.

 

[Catsace]

Damn....Hawthorn and West Coast's finish to the year must have made us not so good then...Although i recall our last four games of the season were not too shabby!

Those bottom three clubs with low 50's percentages, almost like having three Fitzroy's in the same comp per 1996, with GWS this season there'll be a mother of all beltings i fear for 2012.

[Bender_]

What's the deal with the whole Freo/Port hate?

 

[Bosk]

Uh yeah..... because late season games when almost half the teams know they can't make the finals so nothing is at stake are a brilliant indicator, right?


Mods please fail bin this rubbish.

 

[sparky86]

d welching one got smashed on the other thread by freo fans

 

[sportsmaniac89]

D, the thread title is horribly wrong in this instance

Why?

Let me point out an example from a couple of years prior

Port Adelaide sacked Mark Williams and then appointed Matthew Primus as caretaker

In the last 7 games of 2010 Port went 5-2

In 2011, Port were 3-19

This comprehensively proves that late season form from the previous year means jack shit

deluded one doesnt get it

 

[Bayer_]

Awwww, poor D_One's jealous that Freo's got the members and money that would give Port a future. Poor widdle fwanchise cwub.

 

[noddy]

Exactly

This is typical Deeinism put it out for digestion & when a couple of pages old out comes the AFC love bites.

Change your style Dee you need to branch out further.

& before any of the paps state the obvious yes i know i had a nibble.

 

[Lord Rod]

Awwww, poor D_One's jealous that Freo's got the members and money that would give Port a future. Poor widdle fwanchise cwub.

Pretty well sums it..poverty really cuts some people deeply..

 

[WAG]

Well I must say, I'm looking forward to the second part of this from D_Ouche. The suspenders is killing me!

 

[Baldur]

What's the deal with the whole Freo/Port hate?

Poort is such a joke nowadays that even Failmantle fans can troll them.

That run of wins guranteed Matthew Minibus the coaching job. Even Port great (but not so great coach) Russell Ebert jumped on the Minibus bandwagon. Demanding he be appointed.

Thus ensuring we have plenty to laugh about for the next three years.
