Rd19: 530pm EELS v Warriors GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium 8/7/23

Do you measure and record the meanness of tackles made too? I think Offa would be more effective if his tackles reverted more toward the mean...

 

[Tiger5150]

Must be a period like that every week!

Opponent	Ofahengaue tackles per minute
Cowboys	0.90
Seagulls	0.57
Dolphins	0.65
Warriors	0.76

By comparison, Paulo's highest tackles per minute this year, in any game, was 0.56 against Canberra.

Interesting....now show me Joffas metres vs Paulo....or all your "middles"

 

[Tiger5150]

Its probably too early and Ive never been a watcher of Joffa but for those better aquainted with his abilities, is what we see, what we can continue to expect?

Per game or per minute? Apparently you can expect between 0.57 -> 0.9 exc GST

 

[Tiger5150]

It was a very small sample. If he’d played longer than ten minutes his tackles per minute no doubt would’ve reverted more toward the mean. But you knew that.

Then what is the point of the numbers?

If only there was a way of like, I dunno, watching a football player, during a football game, and kinda working out how he is going?

Exactly my thoughts, whenever Pou pulls a random stat out of his

Are you trying to make a point? Why don’t you show them?

As good as your attempted menstruation joke in the other thread, ffs.

Because watching games doesn’t show the “things the fans don’t notice”, which is mostly around work rate.

Classic example is Manu at fullback. He looks like he is coasting and then when you look at the stats he has run for 327 metres.

People notice an accumulation of high (visual) impact plays like line breaks and misses tackles. They’re less likely to notice some merkin doing the dirty work. They’re even less likely to notice the merkin who is shirkin’

 

[hineyrulz]

Like you do the dirty work on here Pou, such a thankless task.

 

[the phantom menace]

I was thinking more it's like people notice his accumulation of highly illogical posts like the sloppy stats and constant misinterpretations?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It might even be disinformation! Don’t tell the government!!!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

There's no need to thank me.

 

[hineyrulz]

There's no need to thank me.

I just think with all the hard work you put in you deserve something.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Your respect and appreciation is enough mate

Bart’s wish is to give Pou a Provan Summons Medal.
