Re: WHAT THE FRAESER GEHRIG HAVE WE DONE?

The upside is that both Howard and Wilke will be 29 by the beginning of next season so our defensive stocks should be right when these boys finish up.

Re: Preparing for the monster meltdown

True.

A few things:

1) There will be some surprises; there always are.

2) Whatever happens, no one knows how the future will pan out. There are just too many variables.

Re: New Logo Incoming

A logo that has lost its λόγος: while aiming to make it more modern they've stripped away much of the meaning.

A λόγος that has lost its way.

I still like it but revising my score: 7.2

Re: New Logo Incoming

Sad to see the latin go but I think it’s pretty good.

It’s more functional and contemporary and has more of a slick branding feel but on the other hand we have lost an important historical element.

I give it an 8/10 overall.

Re: 2025 Fixture

Weird, you still don't seem to be able to tell me which number in your assessment of the difficulty of our 2025 draw (which you claimed was so superior) actually represents our 2025 draw. Why would I be worked up? All I am asking you to do is explain how calculation relates to the difficulty of our...

Oh sorry, I must of missed your explanation of which part of your calculation assessing the difficulty of our 2025 draw (again you used 12, 9.5 and 2.5) actually represented the difficulty of our 2025 draw? Maybe it was in a post I didn't see because you didnt reply to me? Good thing that you have ...

Re: 2025 Fixture

Thanks Dud. Adding something profound to the conversation as always - still waiting for you, Dave or anyone else to explain the AFL's or Fox's 'black box' difficulty ratings. And if we end up 1-4 at the start of the season, we'll see how much those "80 minute plane rides" matter for early...

Re: 2025 Fixture

The nerve I hit was your inability to engage with the actual fixture analysis. Instead of addressing: - Front-loaded interstate travel (3 in first 5 is inequitable) - The AFL's own stated priorities - Missing marquee games - Actual schedule equity as per AFL’s own guiding principles on page 4 of th...

Re: 2025 Fixture

"The mean hides a multiple of sins," is a mantra my former stats lecturers used. What about the mode? The poor relation of the averages' trinity. Discuss. This is an interesting statistical philosophy question! The mean (9.5 in our case) can indeed hide significant variations and skews in...

The 12 denominator represents our baseline (yes, my assumption) - what our draw difficulty SHOULD tbe given our 2024 ladder position which the AFL use as part of their methodolgy in creating the fixture for the following year.

Re: 2025 Fixture

JFC. I haven't confused anything. You're overcomplicating a simple calculation. The 12 denominator isn't arbitrary - it represents what our draw difficulty SHOULD be based on our 2024 ladder position. When I calculate 2.5/12 = 21%, I'm showing how much harder our draw is relative to what would be fa...

Re: 2025 Fixture

Very inspiring but totally irrelevant. Need to use a proportional ratio. Your raw rankings mask the real magnitude of difference as you are ignoring the base rate. A 21% deviation from the average is significant. I would love to do business with you someday. :lol: Lol yeah sure, except we aren't ta...

Re: New Logo Incoming

The emblem is quite clever but doesn’t work on that background because there’s no contrast.

The club logo works.

The clash jumper looks crap.

Crows logo is fine and don’t know what the fuss is about but it’s Adelaide so who gives AF.
