WTF is Impact Rating?

[just maybe]

According to AFL stats Round 8: http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=171339

Impact Rating:

1. Ben Hudson - 133.3
2. Rhett Biglands - 128.0
8. Scott Thompson - 124.0

No idea how this is calculated...not surprised Thompson is up there in the league, but didn't realise Hudson would rank so high...

And BIGLANDS?! How the hell do they calculate this?

rhett's always had a bit of go in him, just aint that smart. Jack will assume they are talking about coming onto the ground and having an impact which i suppose as a second ruck he would do. Thomo spends a lot of time on the bench so he probably does the same. Rhett is unfairly criticised by one or two here just for the hell of it, it seems.

Perhaps thet are including physical clashes with regard to Rhett...

Looking at the thread it appears that Lonie from 50 uses his own statistical formula to work out ranking points, then divides these by time on ground to get the impact rating.

 

[Swifty_446]

It's calculated by dividing ranking points by time spent on ground. It's the players that make the most impact with their time on the ground.

Interesting looking at those stats fellas

Would you say we have the best rucking combo in the league in terms of hit outs and direct ruck contests rather than around the ground statistics???

The last two games at least they both have had their fair share of impact IMO.

Just not kicking the winning score. That is the story.
