Collingwood 2011 was a fair way out there from memory. And Lyon’s saints would’ve been in that region 09-10.
Yep, peak Collingwood was Round 20, 2011, when they visited Port and towelled them up 3.3 (21) to 23.21 (159).

They held a bunch of sides to ridiculously low scores that year.

The Tigers are the best team in the league right now, but still nowhere near the lofty heights the Pies and Cats reached that year.

Final Siren

Just out of curiosity
Is there a formula you’ve got in there to take into account when the afl changed it from 25 + timeon to 20 + timeon in the 90s
No, Squiggle is built for modern AFL. You can look at squiggles of earlier times to see how they compare, but there's no attempt to adjust for lower average scoring / bog-like grounds / different finals systems / etc.
 
Fair enough
I was just thinking of the earl 90s late 80s high scoring games

Can someone’s tell Mel which year this rule changed?
I want to compare those 2 squiggles.

Sydney +10 v Adelaide (bah! right margin, wrong result)
St Kilda v GWS +29
Carlton v West Coast +24
Port Adelaide +1 v Geelong
Fremantle +16 v Western Bulldogs
North Melbourne v Hawthorn +16
Brisbane +1 v Gold Coast
Melbourne v Richmond +27
Collingwood +17 v Essendon

4.5/9.

1. Richmond 31.7
2. Geelong 16.0 (+5)
3. Collingwood 15.1 (+3)
4. Hawthorn 15.0 (-2)
5. Adelaide 14.6
6. North Melbourne 10.7 (+4)
7. GWS 10.6 (-4)
8. West Coast 9.1
9. Sydney 6.9 (-4)
10. Port Adelaide -0.3 (-1)
11. Fremantle -0.9 (+1)
12. Melbourne -1.0 (-1)
13. Essendon -10.6
14. St Kilda -13.0 (+3)
15. Gold Coast -14.0 (+1)
16. Brisbane -17.3 (-1)
17. Carlton -19.3 (+1)
18. Western Bulldogs -19.5 (-4)

The algorithm really rates the results from Geelong, Collingwood, Adelaide and North Melbourne this weekend.

Bulldogs v Carlton +1
Geelong +14 v Sydney
North Melbourne +5 v Port Adelaide
GWS +40 v Brisbane
Hawthorn +28 v St Kilda
Adelaide +39 v Gold Coast
Essendon v Melbourne +10
Collingwood v Richmond +17
Fremantle v West Coast +10

And the predictive ladder

1. Richmond 17.5
2. Hawthorn 14.9
3. Collingwood 14.2 (+2)
4. Adelaide 13.93 (+3)
5. Geelong 13.90 (+4)
6. GWS 13.5 (-3)
7. North Melbourne 13.4 (+4)
8. West Coast 13.3 (-2)
9. Sydney 12.1 (-5)
10. Port Adelaide 11.1 (-2)
11. Fremantle 10.9 (+1)
12. Melbourne 10.8 (-2)
13. Gold Coast 8.4 (+2)
14. Essendon 7.6 (-1)
15. St Kilda 6.7 (+2)
16. Western Bulldogs 5.8 (-2)
17. Carlton 5.2 (+1)
18. Brisbane 4.9 (-2)

A big drop for Sydney, who might not make the finals unless their form turns, or one of the flying teams above them falls. At the moment, only Richmond can confidently say that they're headed for the top four.

How are your tips etc going Hobbes? Not sure which variation you're using this year. At least some of them are on 30 by my count, which is very good.

My count is 26 (and I count +0.5 for the drawn match). Exactly the same model as last year - counting null rounds for byes (and rounds of the finals that the team didn't play). I expect accuracy will improve a little when I'm working with a fuller data set for each team.

Hmm, every Hobbes variation I have scored 7/9 in Round 1, not 6/9 as you reported. Not sure if the problem is at my end or you've introduced a transcribing error in your spreadsheet.

E.g. here is a single-pass Hobbes for R1, 2018:

I'm not ruling out a transcribing error, or you might not be including the null round modification I introduced last year, which reduces the impact of last year's results (except for finalists). It also produces a substantial positive skew in the results (because all of the matches from the previous four rounds was against a good opponent) whereas my old structure produced a substantial negative skew (because the last match for 7/8 finalists was a loss).

Aha, that's probably it.

It hasn't been very kind to you, then! The old 2-pass algorithm is on 30 tips (counting the draw as correct) with 31.3 MAE.

I

Almost every week, they put out the youngest side in the competition, usually far younger than supposedly rebuilding sides like Fremantle (25y 44d last round), Gold Coast (24y 269d), and North Melbourne (25y 124d). Only Carlton are close: 24y 56d..

There's no `supposedly` about it. All 3 teams are clearly rebuilding.
 
Bulldogs v Carlton +1
Geelong +14 v Sydney
North Melbourne +5 v Port Adelaide
GWS +40 v Brisbane
Hawthorn +28 v St Kilda
Adelaide +39 v Gold Coast
Essendon v Melbourne +10
Collingwood v Richmond +17
Fremantle v West Coast +10

6/9.

1. Richmond 35.2
2. Adelaide 15.4 (+3)
3. Hawthorn 15.3 (+1)
4. Geelong 13.5 (-2)
5. Sydney 11.2 (+4)
6. Collingwood 10.7 (-3)
7. GWS 10.5
8. West Coast 9.5
9. Port Adelaide 6.3 (+1)
10. North Melbourne 3.8 (-4)
11. Melbourne 2.4 (+1)
12. Fremantle -0.4 (-1)
13. Essendon -13.8
14. Gold Coast -15.9 (+1)
15. St Kilda -16 (-1)
16. Brisbane -16.4
17. Western Bulldogs -16.6 (+1)
18. Carlton -24.1 (-1)

The Bottom 6 seems to have made itself known. Richmond has cleared out some more, but it feels like from 2-12 anything can happen.

Geelong +8 v GWS
Western Bulldogs +5 v Gold Coast
Essendon v Hawthorn +29
West Coast +16 v Port Adelaide
Sydney +12 v North Melbourne
Adelaide +45 v Carlton
Richmond +45 v Fremantle
St Kilda v Melbourne +18
Brisbane v Collingwood +21

And the predictive ladder

1. Richmond 18.6
2. Hawthorn 15.1
3. Adelaide 14.1 (+1)
4. Geelong 13.9 (+1)
5. West Coast 13.67 (+3)
6. Sydney 13.64 (+3)
7. GWS 13.57 (-1)
8. Collingwood 13.1 (-5)
9. Port Adelaide 12.8 (+1)
10. Melbourne 11.7 (+2)
11. North Melbourne 11.6 (-4)
12. Fremantle 10.8 (-1)
13. Gold Coast 8.0
14. Essendon 6.7
15. St Kilda 5.9
16. Western Bulldogs 5.8
17. Brisbane 5.2 (+1)
18. Carlton 3.9 (-1)
 
The gap between Richmond and the second-best side is now the largest Squiggle has recorded since the Hawks beat Essendon by 94 points in Round 18, 2012.

So you are suggesting a red hot Richmond will lose a GF to a less fancied opponent from Sydney?
