    yeah I was surprised the difference was not a little bigger than what it was. I agree with your point re teams 7-10, I think the new finals structure means they will have no chance of winning the premiership which might be part of the whole point. We increase the number of finals, give more...

    okay some more stats for you .... again over the period 2000-2025. this time considering teams who were 10-1 (or better) after 11 games (whether or not they were top of the ladder). This has actually happened a lot more than I expected, 20 times in those 26 years including 3 years where there...

    So in true Freo supporter fashion, I have started to be worried about being good at the wrong time of the season, I mean who wants to be on top after round 11?? Flashbacks of 2015 anyone??? So I looked back from 2025 all the way to 2000 about what happened to the ladder leader after round 11...

    Strategy Changes: Round 17 Sydney Swans vs. Fremantle Dockers

    Ummm actually … There are many more measures of the average than those 3, There are things like the harmonic mean, geometric mean, trimmed mean, mid range, mid hinge etc But true none of them equate to a meaning of poor. However i don’t mind the interpretation of averaging over all...

    Review Rate the season so far

    When I did up the table it was Adelaide and Hawthorn who suprised me the most, both being talked up for winning against low ranked teams. I mean it would be nice if we learned to do that too, and I am really hoping to see that over the next 4 weeks - all games against bottom half of the table...

    Toast The Official Bailey Banfield Appreciation Thread

    At different times Banners has been selected in the midfield, as a forward and now in defence. The only other player who I can think of like this for Freo is Matthew Pavlich. Banners and Pav - two great legends of Freo.

    Game Day 2024 Trade Period - Lian Yu - that liminal space between trade and draft.

    Hmm not sure about different class when if you extend the criteria out to 6 years then in 2019 one Michael Walters also had 400+ disposals and 40+ goals! On iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app

    Game Day 2024 Trade Period - Lian Yu - that liminal space between trade and draft.

    That’s interesting, I had certainly heard of the pick 6 curse before, but seeing that table it also stood out for me that the even picks in general are dodgy, 4 is worse than 5, 6 is worse than 7, 8 is worse than 9 and 10 is worse than 11! On iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app

    Prediction Changes vs Bulldogs

    For some reason as a kid I wanted to be a leftie and so practiced batting and bowling left handed a lot, but was never game enough to do it in a game. But one night at indoor cricket we were a player short and so the opposition got to pick 2 players to bowl another over. I was picked as I was...

    So what I hear you saying is you want something like this ..... 2023 GF A close fought battle between Collingwood and Freo, Collingwood kick a goal with 10 seconds to go to put them 3 points ahead. The ball returns to the centre, Darcy taps to Brayshaw who blindly roosts it into the forward...

    I taught Oscar Allen at Uni, I might have sent him an email or two that had a PS at the end encouraging him to wear Purple. He never responded :( I also taught the GOAT himself in Bailey Banfield when he was playing WAFL. Gave him an extension because he played for the mighty tigers (not...
