They needed a 120 point win to move up, not a 100 point win.

Oi! No arguing with the Live Ladder! Another 42 points (without Essendon scoring) would've made them fourth.

The same shit ladder that predicts Hawthorn to finish 2nd? And Adelaide and GWS to lose any games for the rest of the year? Hawthorn are either finishing 1st or 5th, there's no middle ground. On that basis, the ladder is complete garbage.

Yeah, trash talk in the stats forum! Geelong is predicted to get 2.6 wins on average, Adelaide 2.5, Sydney & GWS 2.4. You seem very confident that between them they will win 12 of 12 matches when the odds would say they are between 75% & 95% for each one. Much more likely that a couple of them get dropped along the way, e.g. Sydney or GWS away to North, Adelaide in the Showdown.

What is this? Sure, its more likely that one team will lose statistically, but North and Port are garbage and irl its not going to happen.

I'm glad you put your age in your username so I won't go too hard. You've had three goes and you haven't given us a fact yet, just patent nonsense & schoolyard opinion. This is the stats forum, troll somewhere else.

Remind me, what exactly is trolling about saying that Hawthorn, Geelong, Sydney, Adelaide and GWS won't lose another game for the rest of the season? Why don't you come back in three weeks when exactly what I typed has happened, and explain it then?

And ... I said that where exactly?
FWIW, The Squiggle has exactly the same order of the top 15 as the Live Ladder with the same number of wins for every team. Along with a beautiful visualisation showing that 5th is not a mode for Hawthorn:

And ... I said 'mode' where? Can you read?
Also, nice work desperately trying to avoid my question. How is predicting results trolling? I guess its not, so you can run on back to primary school again tomorrow instead of skipping it to troll on the internet.

I do apologise, most of the time here we assume people have done Year 7 maths. Also: http://www.statisticshowto.com/what-is-a-bimodal-distribution/

What does the mode have to do with where Hawthorn finishes? The mode is the only one that has nothing to do with the actual data.

First things first.
GEEL d. ESS 100-34 (66pt win)
GEEL 1869/1363 = 137.12 < GWS 140.18
If GEEL d. ESS 142-34 (108pt win)
GEEL 1911/1363 = 140.21 > GWS 140.18
Re the Live Ladder, I doubt Sydney, Adelaide and GWS will all lose 1 of their last 3 games.
And I don't really understand that squiggle thing.

This post was in Stats Observations (May 27, 2012). I'm not certain but presume it hasn't happened since the 2012 game:-
From Footystats
The Western Bulldogs-Gold Coast match played in Darwin on Saturday night provided the rare occurrence where neither club had a multiple goalkicker for the match – Bulldogs 9, Suns 4.
Last time this happened (according to the Footystats records) was in 1999, when the Port Adelaide 4.8 v Richmond 3.12 match, contained seven single goalkickers.
It was the first time this had occurred in a League match since Round 22, 1981 — when Collingwood 4.9 v Fitzroy 8.11 match, saw 12 single goalkickers.
The record is 15 — the Essendon 8.13 v Fitzroy 7.8 match of Round 15, 1908 contained 15 single goalkickers.
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/stats-observations.982508/page-70#post-24348138
So the Western Bulldogs North Melbourne game is a new record for the most goals without a multiple goalkicker.
Indeed! With 16. Unless it has been beaten somewhere between 2012 rd. 8 and last week's game, which is probably very unlikely.

We need more people answering questions here. Where did Ron The Bear go? I guess I will have to set up an AFL database.
Given that by day I'm a Senior Database Administrator, well, it's a no-brainer.

Correct
All ten clubs played six matches in June 1912. Full rounds were played on Saturday June 1 and Monday June 3. 156 of 180 players on the Saturday fronted up again on the Monday. No side was unchanged.
That's the only time it's happened.
