White V Sandilands?
White by a mile.
SC, i'd go Sandilands, but in DT White is just so consistent.

White V Sandilands?
Trading out Bradshaw if 2+ weeks and upgrading Ellis or Myers...
Who do you think i should get? I've got 99k in the bank...
I was thinking of going Bradshaw to Andrew Mcleod (is too cheap!)
and upgrade Ellis to anyone or Myers to >328k
Options for Myers are King, Goddard, Burgoyne, Bock, Kennely...
what are your thoughts lads?
Worst trade ever was the guy who got Leigh instead of Sam Fisher (though I think Leigh took 19 - 20 marks in a game last year.. correct me if I'm wrong). Check out that thread...

Does anybody noe chris mastens BE this weekend cus im lookin to upgrade him to lenny hayes and i need him to hopefully stay at the same price or even go up in price cus looks lik lenny mite drop in price in the next week or so
Yep, it would, except for the cases where they are playing different roles (ie Priddis will look different in the absence of Judd, or Judd & Kerr, or BJ and Murphy, etc). But a scatter graph showing true correlations might show some interesting results! So, what did you come up with re Cornes and Burgoyne?Just a suggestion for the No Passengers crew (if it is appropriate in this thread): I note in the Week 12 discussion that you have been considering whether the scores of different players are correlated. I actually tried to do this when I was picking up Peter Burgoyne, to see if his score was correlated with Chornes.
I was wondering whether it might be helpful to look at scores between particular players over periods longer than just this season. If so, it might be helpful to use a scatter graph, and to actually report some measure of correlation (e.g. Excel can display R squared when adding a trendline) to compare between different sets of players.

This is a interesting way of looking at it - correlating performances that show high R squared values irrespective of team win/loss would be useful in draft selection! As you would need to do a lot of analysis within the team to get meaningful results though. Up for it?<snip>
For those that aren’t familiar with the concept, an R squared of 0.070 means that only 7% of Burgoyne’s score can be explained by the variation in The Chad’s. I expected a positive relationship for obvious reasons, i.e. if one has a good game, it should be more likely that the other had a good game.
It’s difficult to know how close a relationship this represents, without comparing it with other pairs of players, i.e. given the many different factors that can affect a player’s score (e.g. form, role, opponent etc.). While it is not a “good” result in that their scores do not appear to be closely correlated, it is a good result if you are concerned (as I was) about how having both players in your backline might affect your score when one of them doesn’t score so well.
Another avenue of research would be to consider how Port Adelaide’s performance affects a particular player’s score.
This is a great point too - sorry to say I don't know where the data would be, but I wish I did. Anyone else got it or know where to get it?There's been so many late withdrawals this weekend. Any data on which teams are the worst culprits this year? Might help show which clubs can be least trusted with pre-lockout selections.
Up for it?
The Geelong mids (Ablett, Bartel, Corey) would be a good example of this - at surface value there appears to be an apparent inverse relationship between Ablett and Corey this year, but is it just noise or a real pattern?
Who do you think? Why?Who is the best midfielder to downgrade to? Hinkley, Eddy or Grimes?
I have absolutely no idea, tempted to go Eddy coz he is playing at the moment but Hinkley has already played two games and got injured which suggests they want him in the team but the only reason he isn't is coz he is injured, and I hear grimes is pretty sure to play towards the end of the season. Why? Who would you go?Who do you think? Why?
I will not make the decision for you, and I don't think any other NP are going to either. Minimum effort, maximum gain, zero responsibility on your behalf. If you want someone to give you the answer, post your question on the main thread. You should get plenty of answers. If you want someone to help you make the decision all by yourself, read on.I have absolutely no idea, tempted to go Eddy coz he is playing at the moment but Hinkley has already played two games and got injured which suggests they want him in the team but the only reason he isn't is coz he is injured, and I hear grimes is pretty sure to play towards the end of the season.
