Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

Code: 
Round 6, 1897

South Melbourne	  0.2   1.2   2.3   2.4	 16
Essendon	  0.3   0.6  0.11  1.13	 19

Essendon don't score a goal for the first three quarters, but end up winning anyway. Any other instances of this?

In the modern era what is the longest winning streak any one player has had over one team?
Click to expand...

Setting aside modern for the moment, Tuck and Bartlett had 31 wins over Melb and Syd/SM respectively (with 5 and 6 losses), the most by a player over one team.

Bill Hutchison played St Kilda 23 times for 22 wins and a draw. Harry Collier and Coventry both 21-0 v Hawthorn.

Streaks without loss.. other than the above 3, Rod McGregor over Richmond, and Tuck over Melb, both 21 also.


Dustin Fletcher has 20 wins + draw over Carlton in 34 games.

Nick Dal Santo is 14 wins and a draw from 15 v Richmond.

Second to that streak, Stephen Milne has 12 wins and a draw from the last 13 v Richmond, and there a few other 12s in addition to Ball over Carlton.
 
Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

The Gary Abletts i am certain have only participated in three defeats at the hands of Richmond in their time at Geelong. Rd 21 1985, Rd 19 1996 and Rd 9 2006. Of the eight occasions Richmond have defeated Geelong since the start of the 1984 season....five of those came in the Ablett-free era of 1997-2001.

N.B...Gary was injured in Rd 7 1990, when Richmond defeated Geelong at K.P, when Geelong scored 9.28.82!!

A related stat...Ben McEvoy has played against 11 opponents without experiencing a loss, which is currently a record. Jarry Blair, James Podsiadly and Steele Sidebottom are on 10. Travis Varcoe is on 8 after 78 games - a very high number for this stat.
 
Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

Round 3 - 2011

1) Geelong's 24th consecutive victory at Kardinia Park equaling the League record for consecutive wins at one venue. Full Table

2) During the match against Collingwood, Carlton conceded their 180,000th point becoming the last of the remaining 7 teams who founded the competition in 1897 to do so.

3) Only the third time that Fremantle has won consecutive matches in their last 48 outside of WA.

4) Richmond's 200th match since playing in a final.

5) First time Melbourne has won a match by scoring 80% or more of their score in the 2nd and 3rd quarters since round 15, 1968 when Melbourne scored 5.3-33 of their total of 6.4-40 to defeat Nth Melbourne 5.8-38. (North scored 100% of their score in the 1st and 3rd quarters.)

The HS seems to be a little confused, I think they missed Melbourne's "home" win at the Gabba in 2002

I think an AAP reporter put "home" into "FootyWorks" or similar and of course missed the loss by Brisbane at the Gabba as the "away" team round 14 2002.

Geelong has the "home" record anyway with 30 consecutive wins in Geelong and designated "home" games in Melbourne.

The Hun did not publish my comment and correction.
 
Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

Collingwood this week will be looking to become just the 17th team in history to go 20 games or more with just one loss.

Their 19-game streak is: W D 9W L 2W D 4W

If they win their next two games (Richmond, Essendon), they will jump to =10th on that list, and it would be Collingwood's 2nd best ever streak (for one loss) in history.

Depends how you define/count these.
For example Geelong has had 30 over lapping sequences of 20 matches where only one match was lost.
2 starting in different rounds in 1952
13 starting in different rounds in 2007
15 starting in different rounds in 2008

Have a look at Geelong's results 2007-09 and you will see that there are more discrete sequences of 20 matches with one loss than the two illustrated by AFL Tables.

Note too that Geelong only lost one match from round 6 2007 to round 8 2008 - 1 loss in 28 matches. Then from round 10 2008 to round 13 2009 - 1 loss in 29 matches. (With more discrete sequences of fewer matches with 1 loss included.)
 
Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

In my opinion, you do not double count.

Winning 6 games straight should not be considered as winning 5 games straight 6 times.

It is problematical to be sure.

But LWWWWWWL does contain 2 streaks of 5 consecutive wins.
LWWWWWWL and LWWWWWWL. If you are counting streaks of 5 wins then there are two there.

Here's my take on counting discrete runs of consecutive of wins within longer sequences. Strings of Wins.

Anyway Collingwood has got some way to go to match Essendon's 1 loss (and 32 wins) in 33 matches 1949-51.

Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

Found the 1971 Under 19's ladder today (because the fun never stops around my way) and noticed Geelong had four draws that season.

South Melbourne and Collingwood also had two each.

Tough year to get a win.

I define a streak as having definite bookends. ie, a streak counting most wins with only 1 loss must begin and end with losses

Of course, the other way is viable, but quite unnecessary :D

Putting together 6 consecutive wins is not all that easy. Richmond and Carlton for example haven’t done in the last 10 years.

In 2010 only 4 teams, Collingwood, Geelong, Hawthorn and St Kilda managed to win six matches in a row.

However by counting discrete streaks of 6 consecutive wins, you can see that Collingwood had twice as many runs of 6 consecutive wins (4) than the other three (only 2 each.)

Collingwood 4 streaks of 6 consecutive wins in 1 year.
Carlton 0 streaks of 6 consecutive wins in 10 years.
Richmond 0 streaks of 6 consecutive wins in 10 years.

or

2001-10
Collingwood's longest streak of consecutive wins - 9.
Carlton's longest streak of consecutive wins - 4 (3 times)
Richmond's longest streak of consecutive wins - 4 (5 times.)

I think counting discrete streaks can put another interesting perspective on things.

The issue with one loss in 20 matches was which 20 in a sequence like Essendon's one loss in 33 matches 1949-51.

Yeah, a problem which become apparent very quickly when I came to compile my tables. Dumping long lists of basically the same streak didn't appeal.

My approach (I think, it was a while ago) was that no win could appear in more than one streak. So the representative of each streak is a first come, first serve situation.
 
Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

Back to the obscure....

Last Match of the Season


1) Of all teams that have competed in the VFL/AFL Hawthorn has won the highest percentage of their last matches of the year.


2) Adelaide and Port Adelaide have each only won 4 of their last matches of the year.


3) Fitzroy won a higher percentage of their last matches of the year that have Carlton, Collingwood or Essendon.


4) In seasons where team’s didn’t play in the finals only one current Victorian team takes up one of the last six positions in a table showing percentage of last matches won.


5) None of University’s 27 wins in seven seasons was their last match of the year.


Full tables

But what does that tell us that the following doesn't?

Most consecutive wins (2010)
9 - Collingwood
7 - Geelong, Hawthorn, St Kilda
5 - Sydney (2), Collingwood, Western Bulldogs

Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

not sure if this is the correct place to ask this.

if west adelaide defeat ainslie this week, when was the last time the same team defeated 2 different premiers from the previous season in consecutive weeks?
 
Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

This may not be correct, so I encourage any corrections.

This weekend will be just the 24th occasion that < 50% of games will be played in Victoria. In fact, this week will be only the second time that only 2 games are played in Victoria, and this weekend will see the lowest percentage of games ever played in Victoria.

Maybe next year we might see a round with 2 games in Victoria and 6 interstate.

Code: 
[B]Year  Round  VIC  INT  VIC%
---------------------------[/B]
2011    4     2    5   28.6
1952    8     2    4   33.3 (VIC venues were Euroa and Yallourn)
2001   13     3    5   37.5 (first of 20 such instances)
...
2011   17     3    5   37.5 (last  of 20 such instances)
1994    4     3    4   42.9

It tells that in 2010, Collingwood increased their discrete tallies of 6 consecutive wins by 4, Geelong, Hawthorn and St Kilda by 2.

(For those nutty enough (like me) to count such things. That's all.)

Re: Post 5 random (obscure) stats

In 2002 Fremantle finished with a 9-13 record. All 9 of their wins came in home games. Is this the most wins in a season without winning a designated away game?
