Certified Legendary Thread Race for the flag, in squiggly lines

[kaiserchief13]

I'm a bit late looking at it this week, but West Coast seems to be the most in the premiership zone and Tigers are making a clear run for it.

Will be interesting to see the movements in the next month.

Bradbury earned his too, but we all know what the saying means.

I agree. But there are plenty of threads talking about teams that do not deserve to either be in a game or win it because other teams fail to make the grade.

look at North doing a Bradubury by making the prelim last year.

if that happened, I will so petition hard for us to play the first GF at subi

 

[WALDENPOND]

I think someone should put one of those red pins on this thread and keep it up the top. Intelligent and informative.

 

[wild side]

Think Port can buck the prediction tonight.

No, but they were mighty close.
If it wasn't for the bummers players in there, they could have.
Ryder has had a very indifferent season.

Geez they had a golden opportunity and serve that up. Not good enough.

 

[Ragtooth]

Expecting Freo to go down again as the forecast is for rain. Essentially 5 weeks of games in the wet/dew conditions in a row for Freo, whom haven't responded well to them....107 points in the wet in current form seems quite unlikely

hmmm, what happens to squiggle for Adelaide-geelong game? both teams, I think, awarded 0-0 for the draw...
Gil really should have consulted for the tied-score that makes mathematical sense...

Clearly a man with no sensibilities.

Surely award the tipped result (as squiggle doesn't care about absolute win loss) so teams don't move OR use the tied score as an average of the tipped result (can't remember exact numbers but if it was 80 to 60 give both sides 70.)

Round 13, 2015

Animated!

Good week for the guy doing squiggles, who gets to see his team within a sniff of the action for once! Yeah! I knew there was a reason I was doing this. The Tigers were pretty bad for the first six rounds, but since then have gotten better and better.

From here, they have a pretty good run home, too. Top 4 isn't out of the question, but requires a mini-implosion from at least one of Fremantle, Sydney, West Coast, or Hawthorn. That is hard to see, since the team with the worst current form, Fremantle, is two games clear on top, while the team with the fewest wins, Hawthorn, is in the best form. But it's also uncommon for the top 4 to remain unchanged after Round 13.

The Hawks enjoyed another good week for doing not very much: They defeated Essendon by precisely the 38 points the squiggle demanded of them, which was enough to stretch the gap to their rivals as Sydney and Fremantle slid.

And at the other end of the chart, it was a fourth good result in a row for Carlton, who continued their upward trend with a 34-point win over Gold Coast.

Another bad week for Fremantle, who aren't just underperforming, but are doing it in the worst possible way, by failing to score. This means they continue to drift further away from the area that almost every premiership team of the last 20 years has landed. The Dockers may well still finish on top of the Home & Away ladder, because they've extracted wins from all their close games (three now by exactly 7 points), but the squiggle believes in dishonourable wins, and this isn't the sort of form that wins flags.

I've said this a number of times but if I was Final Siren I'd be organising a meeting with the Herald Sun to sell this as a weekly column. It would be a HUGE hit. He deserves to be on a big fat contract for this shit. Take the money off the guy whose job is to caption the photos...

Some people on here think too much. It will be exactly the same as if the teams had a bye. They won't move.

 

[Final Siren]

Yeah. With the slight chance that the live squiggle's automated system will see a 0-0 result and freak out about both teams' defences being infinitely good.

Another week and if you had jut bet against the squiggle would've made money. I think it might be out of 14 rounds its shown you profit by betting against it 11 times.

Zero out of four so far this week Final Siren.

That said I pretty sure that the next two games will be in favour but only just give it's pretty close to the betting lines.

Believe it or not Roby, creating an accurate prediction model is a bit more difficult that pulling tips out of your arseh*le each week.

 

[Augustine]

OK that game is going to SMASH our squiggle. How depressing...

 

[Roby]

Believe it or not Roby, creating an accurate prediction model is a bit more difficult that pulling tips out of your arseh*le each week.

I'm simply pointing out that just tipping against the Squiggle will make you money.
