Prediction Ladder Predictor

[Scud2]

My ladder predictor has been more up and down then my mood when I watch the pies play

 

[Prexm]

I have 4 games in each of the last 2 rounds that could go either way without being a massive upset.

Freo v Bris , GC v GWS , Adel v Coll , Syd v Gee
Coll v Melb , PA v GC , Dogs v Freo , Lions v Hawks

So based on this we could still finish between 2nd and 9th

 

[manicpie]

I have us finishing top but I've erased the second half of the season. It makes me feel warm

I’ve succumbed and done a ladder predictor. Interestingly it ended up with us 3rd and Hawthorn 4th on equal %.
What happens in this scenario where two teams are equal on points and percentage?

The percentage won't be equal. Add a couple of decimal places and it will be different.

If teams have the same for and against there is a formula to separate them. It's things like head to head etc to try and split them.

The final step after all other steps are exhausted is a coin toss.

Thanks. I thought they’d just add a couple of decimal places.

Win our next five and we win the flag.
No need for a ladder prediction.

That’s right, we are about to peak at the right time.

That's what we keep getting told. I hope it becomes reality

Some interesting games next round

Freo v Brisbane
Gold Coast v GWS
Adelaide v Collingwood
Sydney v Geelong

All could go either way. The 8 and top 4 is still so open. Just a shame we didn’t lock away top spot like we should have by now.

Sydney are a real chance of upsetting Geelong up at the SCG.

I’m also not sure now if it’s better if Freo or Brisbane win next week. Freo now half a game ahead of Brisbane.

 

[timokane]

Win v crows we are back in touch.
Pies can still make top 4 with lose to crows but then means a huge percentage boosting win v dees the following week.
Crows win will ease all pressure on the dees game.
We need a pressure release this week.
Kind of feeling we need a few other games go our way.
but best thing to do is win v crows.
We have a good record there as well.
Erase time is now last say 5 weeks.
Erase and reset totally.
Dont forget both teams start at 0-0 at the first bounce.

 

[legendstatus]

Sydney beating Geelong wouldn’t be an upset - I reckon they will

 

[timokane]

So do i the swans are the spoiler im telling you

We’re gonna be playing them on a 9 day break to their 6 days
Hopefully plenty of time to work on some things they need to fix. Also helps us be a bit fresher

I think most goals come into it after head to head.

Plus they fly back from Perth

 

[legendstatus]

This is how I see it playing out, have us losing to Crows and winning the last

 

[sr36]

I’m also not sure now if it’s better if Freo or Brisbane win next week. Freo now half a game ahead of Brisbane.

If either Brisbane or Suns win we're certainties to make finals - not locked in until then.

Yeah I reckon you're righg

 

[manicpie]

I have us finishing on top and one game clear.

North gonna beat Adelaide?

 

[manicpie]

North gonna beat Adelaide?

According to my dream yes

1. Adelaide 72pts 142.4% (current)
vs Coll W
vs Kang W
2. Gold Coast 68pts 125.1%
vs GWS W

vs Ess W
3. Geelong 64pts 139.8%
vs Syd L
vs Rich W
4. Collingwood 64pts 124.2%
vs Ade L
vs Melb W
5. Fremantle 64pts 112.7%

vs WB L
6. Brisbane 62pts 111.3%
vs Fre L
vs Haw W
7. Western Bulldogs 60pts 135.4%

vs Fre W
8. Hawthorn 60pts 121.2%
vs Melb W
vs Bris L

9. Greater Western Sydney 60pts 114.1%
vs GC L
vs StK W

If Brisbane win tonight but lose next week instead no harm done in terms of Brisbane but it does provide Hawthorn with the opportunity to leap frog us on percentage.

This is of course based on the assumption we don't beat Adelaide but both teams defeat Melbourne.

Gold Coast and Geelong could easily swap positions. One loss to GC or the Cats beating Sydney will be all that it takes. GO SWANS!

In reality it's so tight many permutations are still possible.

 

[satty]

Not even going to bother with the ladder predictior, way to many 50:50 games . Starting with the freo and lions game tonight.

These last two rounds are going to be an absolute rodeo.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

Don't know why people have Geelong losing to Sydney.

Swans with no Grundy are no chance.
