Game Day Round 20 Matchday Discussion - Dedicated to the Thighmaster

I think a Finals hub in WA is inevitable.

Its Bradburyesque.

 

[jdeezy]

All these adjustments and it still doesn't help me loop Bramble / Cerra / Taranto

 

[Duckworthy]

Take Weightman's 70-odd or roll the dice with Dunnyher?

 

[Chronz]

No night game on a Saturday?? Piss off AFL.

 

[DT_35]

Bont and Danger can both go and get f******

Flogs the both of them.

Far out danger under 50 at 3 quarter time when your a pod this week ffs

I don't have Thomas and so many on here had him as the Gruber-POD.
Don't have Dangerfield either, surely he's dominating.

It’s the VFL mate. The hub will be in Melbourne.

Finally, Dale. Really regretting not pulling the trigger on Guthrie - off to a huge start, and since I don't have Danger, could've been a good week to make up some ground. Oh well, will probably have six sub-50s tomorrow anyway

Don't we play the Eagles?

Hey guys, long time lurker, first time poster. I’ve long been mystified by the SC scoring system, in theory I know how certain acts are scored, but every week I am left mystified as to how a player got a certain score. Could someone please enlighten me as to how Cripps got 88 and Bont got the same (pre scaling). Just a comparison, Cripps had a better DE, 11 more disposals (9 more contested), 1 more mark, an additional behind, 2 additional clearances, +1 Free kick for, more inside 50s, rebound 50s etc. The only positive differentials for Bont is +1 tackles and -4 clangers. Surely 4 clangers and a tackle doesn’t outweigh everything listed above. As an owner of Bont vs an opponent who has Cripps I’m not complaining, I’m just wondering if there’s more to this I’m missing or the scores genuinely just make it up as the go.

Not so sure about that. The AFL has been booking up heaps of hotel rooms here so they are certainly hedging their bets to ensure big crowds are possible.

 

[Jiska]

Disgusting 51 point second half from Jack Macrae. Pathetic after such a great start.

Also how’s Dangerflog? 165 last week to 50 this week. Just a consistent 100 each week would be just fine.

 

[SC fish]

Can't see due to paywall

 

[Chronz]

That's a 4.15 game
Pies to long bomb it to Hurn at least 15 times over the course of the match to score 136 Sc. What a man!

The total points in any game are 3,300.
So if there's a game that's a possession fest, the value of an individual kick will be less than in a game with a lower possession count..
There's also a shifting anchor (based around the time when the game was decided as a contest), so if a bloke got a heap of touches late in a dead contest, they might not be worth as much.
There's also a lot of scoring acts categories etc.
That sort of stuff.

 

[Chronz]

C'mon Dongerflog need three goals and 40+ more points thanks.

 

[Test Tickle]

This could be fun

Knockons, 1-percenters, spoils, handball v kick points awarded, closeness of the game when player is collecting points (ie impact on the end result), total number of possessions in the game (more possessions overall means scaling down of each) - just off the top of my head.

Some on here swear that it's all rigged and arbitrary and KOTD, but I wonder why they play the game if they think so.

Clearances, inside 50 and rebound 50 all worth 0 SC points.

Most of Cripps possession differences were 5m handballs.

+1 tackles and -4 clangers is 20 points.

Dangerflog is the new Dusty .....I've already stated Danger won't be in my side next year .....irrespective of the odd big score

Thanks, had no clue about the shifting anchor, although it doesn’t really impact that last game seeing as the Dogs were belting the Crows.
