If I'm not mistaken, a few years ago the AFL highlighted stats from early 2000 that any team that had a 30 point lead at any stage of the game, went on to win 95% of the time...melliot wrote:Only 2nd game for the year where a 5+goal lead has resulted in that team losing. Pies against bombers was the other.

LOL. Bartlett, Weightman and Mal Brown? Surely they must have been taking the piss. Who would want to listen to them?
Only team apart from Port to have beaten two of the top four teams (that is, the top four after we beat Melbourne tomorrow). Won against Sydney, Port and West Coast among others.eddiesmith wrote:How the **** are the Kangaroos in the top 8? Have they played GWS and Lions twice already or something?
This is a very poor year obviously, Richmond are just an embarrassment and may be another 10 years for them to recover from a rare finals appearance last year.

After reading this thread I turned over, it was just Bartlett talking, the other 2 weren't allowed to say a wordDavid wrote:LOL. Bartlett, Weightman and Mal Brown? Surely they must have been taking the piss. Who would want to listen to them?
Its a poor year without doubt. Sydney and Roos were shit when we played them and tonight hasn't changed my mind on the Roos.David wrote:Only team apart from Port to have beaten two of the top four teams (that is, the top four after we beat Melbourne tomorrow).

Definitely looking forward to us playing Hawks and Port, could be a real contender this year if we can take it up to them
Actually just looking at the top 4 after tomorrow and really we are undefeated against the top 4 this year!

I think it's 92% win rate once a team is 5+ goals.
Which means if your 5 goals down your only a 8% chance.
Some people refer to the first to 100 points rule, which is a little pointless Imo considering so many games are determined under 100 points and it's only known in the 4th quarter.
I keep the 5 goal rule in my head. Very unlikely to make up that margin. Team always needs to use a lot of petrol to reign that margin in. Under 5 always seems gettable with a good 10 min patch.
Both Roos and Pies did it quickly. Ie 10-15 min patch and didn't burn too much petrol.
