Scoring Anomalies – Round 5

To start us off this week, here’s a look who did best and worst out of the scaling on the weekend:

You might have noticed from the above chart that the most favourably and unfavourably scaled players both came from the same club: Port Adelaide. Digging into it a bit deeper, I found that the margin at half-time in that game was 27 in favour of Port Adelaide, and by three-quarter-time, it that was out to 43 points. I also found that Georgiades kicked two of his three goals in the first half, and his third during the Power’s third-quarter blitz. By the time Drew came on as the sub, late in the third quarter, the game was basically over. So what we actually have here is a case of the scaling working exactly the way Champion Data tells us it does – nice!

If you want to check how a player’s score seems to have been affected by scaling, you can do so in the table below; for a full stat-by-stat breakdown, or a breakdown by broad statistical categories, see the attached spreadsheets at the bottom of this post.
