Options for a lopsided comp

[TLPG]

KE is anti expansion. KE believes that taking risks is for losers.

Loser.

Tidy work there pies but you really have not addressed the key concept of this whole thread. Lopsidedness... which you earlier professed to not even knowing whether this is in fact a word.

So I'll let you off on count of your ignorance to the English language.

Now what i have not heard from one AFL fan is "yes the AFL comp is extremely lopsided this year". This is simply fact and the fact you drongos have not been able to acknowledge it tells much.

I agree that the AFL will probably sort it out but seriously, right now there's lots of games each week that are not worth watching. The games at the top of the ladder are great but the rest...meh. It will be interesting to see how things are five years down the track. You mob think all will be dandy and fine but I think it will be a long and punishing haul for the AFL with it's basketcase teams.

You will notice that its the same teams every week getting blown of the Park....

ARs is a higher scoring game

There will always be blowout games. Essendon got beaten by 67points last night but were flavourites. I would much rather a higher scoring game like the AFL than a low scoring game like soccer where a fluke or poor decision can decide a game. Many NRL games have only 1 team scoring once or even not at all! how exciting!

[piesman2011]

Lets compare percentages (For/Against scores) between the AFL 2012 and the NRL 2012 so far this season.

NRL percentage AFL percentage Closer to 100%
1. Bulldogs 160% 1. Swans 148% AFL
2. Storm 163% 2. Adelaide 132% AFL
3. Broncos 127% 3. Collingwood 121% AFL
4. Rabitos 116% 4. Hawthorn 157% NRL
5. Sharks 107% 5. Eagles 131% NRL
6. Cowboys 126% 6. Bombers 122% AFL
7. Sea Eagles 110% 7. Geelong 114% NRL
8. Tigers 101% 8. St Kilda 121% NRL
9. Warriors 108% 9. Kangaroos 108% Draw
10. Titans 94% 10. Fremantle 98% AFL
11. Dragons 88% 11. Richmond 107% AFL
12. Knights 89% 12. Carlton 104% AFL
13. raiders 83% 13. Lions 92% AFL
14. Roosters 72% 14. Bulldogs 75% AFL
15. Panthers 67% 15. Power 80% AFL
16. Eels 59% 16.Demons 64% AFL
17. Gold Coast 58% (Eels) NRL (just)
18. Giants 43% (Eels) NRL

The key is which team is closer to 100%. Being at around 100% means that overall your scores for and against have been fairly even.

AFL has 11 wins compared to the NRL which as 6 wins. Therefore using this method the AFL competition is a lot closer then the NRL competition.

They prove plenty!

You just don't like what they show!

[piesman2011]

No Pies your stats don't prove a thing, hence no response.

Explain, why they dont prove a thing.

It shows that the NRL teams at the top of the ladder more easily beat their opponents then their AFL equivilents, and that the NRL teams on the bottom of the ladder are more easily beaten. Just because the scores are closer doesn't mean the game is closer. In Soccer 8 to 2 is a drubbing, however there is only 6 goals seperating them. So come up with at least a reason why my stats dont prove a thing. Otherwise you might as well admit defeat on the subject.

Parramatta Eels just beat the Storm...... 16/10

On our day we can beat the top sides, GWS, DEMONS, SUNS cant beat any of the top sides to save there life.....

That's my point, your bottom sides cant get within a whisker of your top teams.

Surley you see were im going here.....

GWS and suns are exceptions because they are new teams filled with kids. Once these kids mature they will be decent sides. Melbourne beat Essendon who were in the top 4.

Stop showing your complete ignorance!

VFL teams masquerading as AFL teams.....

17 Gold Coast 16 1 0 15 58.61 4
18 Greater Western Sydney 15 1 0 14 43.01

Bottom NRL sides

14 Roosters 6 10 1 2 -122 17
15 Panthers 4 13 0 2 -138 12
16 Eels 4 14 0 2 -197 12 Beat MANLY when they were in 3rd position, just beat the second place storm... =D>

[Xman]

Again, the giants and suns are brand new teams with young lists. They will improved dramatically over the next few years.

Melbourne are the genuine bottom team, but would have more wins if it were not for the fact that the top 10 are pretty strong.

You have no answer to piemans facts which show the NRL is actually the more uneven comp.

[TLPG]

It doesn't take much for an upset to happen in the NRL, because of low scores. I call that a bad thing - not a good thing.

Needed to be said.

Totally agree. Low scoring equals more fluky wins or more wins decided by poor umpiring.

The NRL can have it. It sure doesn't help them draw a crowd!

So Xman excuse is they are exempt because they suck and your excuse is because of low scores...... bahahhaha

Surly Pies your not going to come up with lame excuses like this....

So now that these 2 muppets have admitted defeat (IE bringing up crowds again ) i see no reason to keep this thread open, Thread closed....NRL the easy winner. =D>
