    Autopsy 2015 AFL Grand Final - Hawthorn v West Coast

    In regards to the quality of chances blown argument I created a map of every scoring shot in the match. I think from this you can see Hawthorn took their chances quite well. Of course this doesn't include those blown chances that didn't even result in a shot which there were quite a few of. I...

    Stats resources.

    Does anybody have any data showing which end of the ground the home team kicked to in the 1st quarter? (and therefor which ends each team was kicking for the whole game). I'm trying to see if there are favourite ends.

    Oppo Camp All aboard the Collingwood bandwagon

    Wow Geelong should really think about tackling those Collingwood players hanging around the back of every ball-up. Or not. You know, whatever.

    Prediction Finals watch

    I think that's oversimplifying things. Experience is important for a finals run, yes. But so is a high finish. I think the best example of that is West Coast this year. A lot of pre-season analysis suggested that they had one of the easiest draws in the comp. Fremantle also had a cruiser than...

    Prediction Finals watch

    There's a lot of people talking about a possible top 6 and home final. But I'm not sure if that'd actually be the best for us in the long haul. In determining the draw for next year the AFL uses a "weighted rule" system. This means purely by finishing 6th rather than 7th we will be guaranteed to...

    A comparison of the game from 2000-2005-2010-2015

    The massive increase in tackling pressure no doubt explains the dropoff in kicking accuracy. Kicking accuracy of course accounts for all in game kicking. I wonder if setshot accuracy or the amount of shanks from kicks over the mark have changed. It feels like kicking has got worse, but I'm not...

    Oppo Camp Ashes 2015

    Should invite England into the rooms for a drink like they did first test.

    Gameday - England vs Australia - 1st Test - Day 1

    Is the match really delayed due to admin errors? No rain?

    Best Performance of All Time

    Interesting. It certainly stands out as a big one. Any others that you remember?

    Best Performance of All Time

    I'm not sure if Fantasy Footy/Supercoach numbers or any metric that weights x points per particular type of involvement really translate across these long periods of time that well. The game has just changed too much. Nobody's ever gonna rack up 18 goals again if the game continues to be played...

    News Phil Walsh RIP

    Rest in peace, Walshy. You were the right man for our club and I hadn't felt as confident about what was going on behind the scenes for a long time. I'm sure you'll be sorely missed by many people.

    Preview Next AFC Coach For 2016 & Beyond

    Worsfold has certainly got the experience, record and also a relationship with Walsh so that it feels like he'd be a good man to come in and give a bit of structure and provide a sort of father figure to the boys at this time. Going forward though I don't know if he really has his heart in the...
