Essendon and possibly a few other clubs have told the AFL where to stick their new club song recordings and will stick with the originals.

I hope we do because the new one is shite.

Edit: I just looked and apparently we are sticking with the old one thankfully.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

What was the reason for teh new songs? Was it a license thing? Do the AFL want to own the rights to the music played at games, and not have to pay fees?

If it is that, do the AFL, or Port pay the license fees for "Never Tear Us Apart"?

Look on the bright side. At least now Melbourne aren't favourites to win. In that case you'd be screwed.

AFL Membership posted:

Hi drunkill,

For the season opener on Thursday, March 22 at the MCG, Richmond v Carlton, there will be a significant crowd in attendance, particularly in AFL Reserve.

If you wish to attend the match on Thursday night, we strongly recommend you upgrade your seat as there is limited seating capacity available in the AFL Reserve.

AFL Members that have not upgraded their membership and wish to attend, will be able to scan into the AFL Reserve into strictly limited standing room, subject to capacity and availability.

95k+ I figure, depending how many mcc cunts show up.

Had a squiz at the remaining seats for afl members to reserve, all of them are restricted viewing only, so right next to the scoreboard or behind a pole or something.

Friends,

I've spent the last couple of months building a scraper to get historical AFL data from a few different web sources (Mostly afltables and Footywire). I've finally got all the kinks worked out and now have a big database of every game going back to 1897.

-Match details (time, venue, quarter by quarter scores, scoring progression*, umpires, brownlow votes, betting odds and lines*)
-Player stats (whatever stats were collected and published at that point in time + AFL fantasy and Supercoach scores*

* - 2010 onwards

My long term aim is to do analysis/visualisation on this data and turn it into a blog, similar to one like https://thearcfooty.com/ , but to get started, does anyone have any burning questions that could be answered by all of the stats ever published?

Why do we suck so loving god damned much?


One thing I have toyed around with looking at is simple stats correlated to results. I’ve had a theory for a while that total career wins by the selected teams might be a decent measure of predicted outcome.

Make sure you scrape Australianfootball.com which is real drat good. Although they probably use the afl tables data but they have a whole load more leagues, including local leages in some states: https://australianfootball.com/clubs/stats/carlton/3/2018

Let's get a little crazy. Let's have some fun.
Since we're on the topic I've finally nutted out my new sim model (which I can also use for game-by-game probabilities) so the next couple of evenings I'll be putting that up on the site.

Haven't done the whole season sim but I kind of feel those are pretty sketchy until mid-season anyway.

Blues and their AFLW coach have parted ways. Might have to do with his health during the season, might have to do with the team being completely loving cooked despite bringing in a free agency haul.

Tribunal has upheld MRPs finding, two weeks for Brennan, can appeal on Thursday to the appeals board but iirc the appeals board doesn’t retry the case but instead she will need to prove that no reasonable person could make the decision the tribunal made or something similar

On the start of the season: I'm finding it very hard to get excited about the Saints first two games of the year. Brisbane and North at Etihad. We either flog them and it means nothing, win by <30 points and it's a bad win, or lose and it's an absolute disaster.

Same. I'd hope for some prodding by the membership should we fail to make a dent in the finals this year, but we're talking about the Saints here.

I still have higher hopes that Victorian voters are not stupid somehow.

If we're doing predictions now:

Matthew Guy will get in through a 'tough on crime, and by crime we mean Africans' and 'federal libs talking poo poo about Dandrews' campaign.
Saints will still not have worked out their frustrating inconsistency and lack of intensity, finishing in the double digits.
No one surprising will win the premiership this year.
