Scoring Anomalies – Round 8

At the top end of the table, Charlie Cameron was busy early in a game his team ran away with after the opening 10 to 15 minutes, kicking 1.3 by quarter time, and 2.4 for the first half (3.5 overall).

At the other end of the table, Brad Sheppard was the most harshly scaled player on the weekend. He had a quiet second quarter, which, if the score worm is to be believed, is when the game was won, so that’s probably behind the unfavourable scaling.

Speaking of scaling, I mentioned a couple of weeks back that I had found a reliable source for the “who did what when” data, and just needed to find a way to extract it. As of last night, that’s done, so I now have that data at my disposal. I haven’t had a chance to do anything with it yet, but it was the last piece of the puzzle for me to be able to take a proper look at how the scaling actually works in practice, so I’m looking forward to getting stuck into that over the next week.

In the meantime, you can look up any player you like in the table below to see how their score was affected by scaling on the weekend; for an in-depth breakdown of their scoring, see the spreadsheets attached at the bottom of this post.
