Media Baz Stats S31

[Barrybran]

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 it round by round for the first two months. Like last season, I will present the top 5 players by position by Adjusted Dream Team, which takes into account offensive and defensive performance of each player. I may not keep up with this strictly weekly in real time but it will be presented as weekly between now and the end of the home and away season.

For those new to the league or my work, I measure each stat of each player's stat line against all other stat lines recorded for that position in the given season. I then do the same thing for each player's defensive stats, which are based on the stats of the player directly opposed to them at the beginning of the match. The net effect results in an adjustment that is applied to each player's raw Dream Team score.

The goal of the Adjusted Dream Team score is to account for defensive performance as well as reduce the impact of weather. A player who scores 100 DT in fine conditions but concedes 120DT will usually be scaled down while a player who scores 60 DT in muddy conditions while conceding 40DT will usually be scaled up.

It is not a flawless concept as a back pocket that moves to the ruck will naturally score much better than a back pocket who does not change positions however all players have an equal chance of being moved or benched and over the course of a 17-game season, most of these errors iron themselves out.

Also like last season, I will provide an interim All-SFA team that is based on ADT scores and a minimum match thread posting contribution (TIF beat me to posting this by mere hours. Bastard!)​

Thanks for your efforts in advance, saves me having to read it all later.

[Marlowe]

Noobz0r for the second season in a row proving there is no better back pocket in the Sweet FA.

TJASTA and his mirror?

 

[omgfridge]

Wouldn't want to share that half back line with anyone else Genghis Tron

 

[omgfridge]

Also confirmed, the sim LOVES tony

 

[Genghis Tron]

Also confirmed, the sim LOVES tony

Tony can go and get stuffed.... Sexy bastard. Not a bad HBFer either.

 

[Genghis Tron]

Wouldn't want to share that half back line with anyone else Genghis Tron

I knew we'd be up there when I was looking at the stats the other day. Didn't realise we'd been that dominant, it's just become the norm.

 

[serial_thrilla]

Tony can go and get stuffed.... Sexy bastard. Not a bad HBFer either.

Luckily HBFers don't get into the All SFA team.

 

[Genghis Tron]

Luckily HBFers don't get into the All SFA team.

 

[Genghis Tron]

nothing came bring me down now.

 

[tony]

Also confirmed, the sim LOVES tony

I think the Sim saw what happened the last time technology failed me.

 

[Agent93]

Golumless is a top 5 CHF so far? I... wow...

 

[Barrybran]

The Baz Stats All-SFA Team is built around the premise of sim performance while reflecting the approximate posting volume you would expect to see in the eventual All-SFA team at the end of the season. Where possible, the best players are picked for each position however an outstanding candidate in a nearby position may be included ahead of a mediocre player or a player that has not contributed to match threads. Posting quality and media creation/involvement are not taken into account.

The Las Vegas Bears have been gifted some excellent weather this season resulting in high disposal numbers and Dream Team scores. The Adjusted Dream Team doesn't care much for weather though which is why the inclusion of five of their players is an impressive achievement to this point in the season. The league-leading Coney Island Warriors contribute four players to the side, including NaturalDisaster as a standout performer at full back. GremioPower and PhenomenalV1 have made it into the interim side as outstanding contributors to have played multiple positions. GremioPower has shifted around the Swamprats defense before settling nicely into a half forward flank role while PhenomenalV1 has performed well at both full forward and forward pocket.

[Proper Gander]

Heading looks a bit like Bay Stats S31. Brought to you by Baybran I guess

 

[eth-dog]

Looking forward to another bullshit non All-SFA selection this season as well!

 

[Agent93]

Baz... interested to know how guero's ADT changed by 64 in the space of 15 posts.

guero has played one game on a half forward flank. The top 5 are presented as the top 5 at that position (same as last season) while the All-SFA stats are each player's total stats for the season.

Excellent answer.

 

[sausageroll]

This is a selection method that just about nails it in my opinion.

But a maximum of 12 of these players will make the All-SFA even if all of them maintain their level of match performance
