Dearest Sweet Football Association community, Today I write to you not in great length, boring you to great depths, about any of my various Sweet Football Association interests, I do however write to you to note that I am retiring a large and substantial portion of my contributions (as posted...

Alright, you know how this works by now. Each week I'll post the top five by position based on my Adjusted Dream Team score and fire off other stats that pique my interest from time to time. Round 1 Back Pocket Full Back Half Back Flank PLAYERTEAMADT PLAYERTEAMADT PLAYERTEAMADT...

Hi All, I did not want to clog the main board up with this as I am a firm believer that real-world (and I don't have the energy for some good production) does not really have much of a place in the league, but I was just too fascinated that even I wanted to share some of this stuff. My goal is...

Another season, another wonderful collection of numbers produced by the sim. Welcome to the season 31 edition of Baz Stats. This season, we pick up at the halfway mark as my attention was focused elsewhere earlier in the season, and my stats are currently up-to-date and I can't be arsed doing...

Welcome to the third instalment of the Sweet FA Wheel of Parity. The Wheel of Parity exists when all teams can be linked once by the teams they have beaten. In seasons 29 and 30, the Wheel of Parity closed for the first time in Round 8. In season 31, the Wheel has closed after just six rounds...

Welcome to the Baz Stats S30 End of Season Compendium. This standalone piece is designed to be used as a reference point for the awards discussions that will take place over the next couple of weeks. In this thread you will find every raw stat of every player of every team, by total and average...

We are a quarter of the way through Sweet FA's 30th season so let's take a look at the league's top performers on and off the park through the early rounds. Each player below has been selected on a combination of their sim performance and match thread involvement. Adjusted Dream Team points...

Maintaining a weekly thread is a pretty tough gig when you've got things you should actually be doing that don't involve procrastination. I produced a weekly series in each of my first three seasons before taking a season off last season. Boy was that a breath of fresh air! So to celebrate, I...

After seventeen rounds and 102 matches, eight teams march on in season 29 while four look ahead to season 30. Over the next three weeks, much debate will take place publicly, in leadership groups and the committee as various awards are discussed to be awarded in Grand Final week. Throughout...

Miami and Spurs headline a quiet day in the NBA. Denver and Indiana Pacers the other game. Here is a highlight.

It’s Dream Team – reimagined! Welcome back to another season of Baz Stats. Sure, last season’s iteration may be incomplete (I compiled the stats; I was just way too busy to publish it!) but we are back bigger and better than ever. This season’s version is inspired by two things – head-to-head...

Welcome to Baz Stats for Season 27. For those of you who followed along in Season 26, welcome back. For those of you unfamiliar with Baz Stats, I have sought to determine the impact of individual player performances in the context of the conditions each match is played in. Dry games typically...

Season 26 was the first time I witnessed Mobbs Medal night in all its glory and I have to say it was an enjoyable night. Thanks to Cloud_ and congratulations to all the award winners and All-SFA team members. The count itself was very well presented and interesting to follow through the night...

Reading about 193cm Jok winning the Saints time-trial but as usual his time wasn't posted. Why? There never is for any club in any year!! WTF!! How can that be so damned confidential. It's not as if it's going to change the result of any game at any time! Doesn't anyone else want to know just...

There has been a lot of discussion on this forum this season about the value of stats. Which stats can be trusted? Which stats best capture the value of a player? And so on and so forth. One of the biggest conundrums centres around the +/- metric. On one hand this is a stat which attempts to...

Pressure acts are a pretty important stat to the way Richmond play but the only place I can find them is deep in the AFL app. I've built this spreadsheet so that we can compare players and track them across the season. Here's a screen-cap of this weeks leader-board. Cotch and Graham are...

(other graphics should be much better than this as they are done by tgrs and not me) As we all know, weekly Qooty rankings threads are a staple of the Sweet FA providing healthy ego boosts for those blessed with awesome stats on game day. So without further ado, Blacky, tgrs and myself present...
