    Scott Pendlebury warms up and is out for a month? Again our Sports Scientist is using a fact method of statistics, wonder who gave Pendles the go ahead to warm up?

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    More trouble for Adam? Could sports scientist at Collingwood Lazarus be encouraging using his studies (below) all of which used a method of statistics now banned by the AIS? Lots of soft tissue problems at the pies...

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    Is it though, surely attempting to get the best would be using a method that is accepted, not one that the president of the statistical society thinks is garbage. I'm fine with methods being used on players if there is sound biology behind it, however if the sports scientist needs to use a...

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    Isn't that the problem, if the physio needs to use ''statistics'' to justify a treatment then perhaps it goes against conventional wisdom? Otherwise why not just use the techniques and justify them as has been done. I guess its like work, when people want to do something ''new'' they justify it...

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    Sure its difficult, but that doesn't mean you should be able to say lets do this and I have this statistical evidence saying this is good. When its been known for years that the statistical evidence is false. Is using a known fake method to justify doing something any different from making up...

    Champion Data’s List & Player Ratings - An Accurate Tool or Total Fabrication ??

    I think this is a good explainer on the ratings. It shows that there are a lot of subjective decisions that went into the model. For example handballs changed value, while the model was LIVE! Uncontested possessions still being worth 0 is amazing to me I think they should be rewarded. I...

    Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) and the AFL

    Can we trust people who research AFL to look into this for the players? A lot of AFL researchers use a dodgy banned method of statistics called MBI. https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/pies-sports-science-cause-of-injury-woes.1236845/ Given the AFL is basically a boys club, and one of MBI...

    Interesting Thread on Pies injury woes

    https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/pies-sports-science-cause-of-injury-woes.1236845/ Fans of other clubs what are your thoughts? Are sports scientists at clubs giving out unfounded advice based on a method of statistics that the AIS has banned?

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    But what is the education based on? If its based on studies that were only done to build to doctor/physios reputation by getting an academic publication by using a dodgy method is that what we are after? I think a key point is the human nature element of the doctor physio, its human nature to...

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    I don't know, to me I'd lean on if a physio is willing to use a method that is known to be flawed in the industry to justify what they want to do, that's not the position I'd want from any medical professional. If there is sound biology behind it fine, but it seems as though there isn't hence...

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    Maybe the first injury was bad luck and subsequently they were not able to rehab properly because of bad advice? Seems like say the Hawks for example are able to turn around a players injury history (Omeara, Scully) and if we look at the Gold Coast Suns their sports scientist head has a lot...

    Injury prone? Or just getting bad unfounded advice?

    Pies Sports Science - Cause of Injury Woes

    I think the issue could be, how does treatment get decided. If we look at Lazerus, it seems like a lot of his academic phd related work the statistical justification is based on MBI which it seems has been proven to be false. So if players are being told that this treatment or this...

    https://www.theage.com.au/national/cold-water-poured-on-scientific-studies-based-on-statistical-cult-20191108-p538t6.html I'd like to reiterate, the president of the Australian Statistical Society “If I was ever to peer review a paper using magnitude-based inference then I would reject it and...
