When things aren’t always as they seem

I wonder if Geelong’s accuracy is linked to their home ground advantage.

It's probably lots of things but training and playing on the same oval must be an advantage. Not many clubs that do that anymore.

Both matches were away from GMHBA.

Collingwood was MCG, Roos was Marvel

Geelong have been really good but a bit tin arse all year. They were going at nearly best of all time accuracy pace as of the game against us.

You guys really need to listen to the latest edition of the 'TRENDS' podcast. They talk quite a bit about Geelong, the problem with the kicking efficiency ranking and the better stat/measure you should be talking about...I know a few people who will also be happy to hear how Geelong have won 2-games they should have lost (vs Collingwood and vs North) simply because they 'out-kicked the expectation' in terms of goal-kicking (and vs North it made a difference of > 4 goals).

Thanks for the recommendation. Just listened to the latest episode and thoroughly enjoyed it. Will go back and listen to the others now.

The other good one is an RSN podcast “Beyond The Numbers” which drops ever Thursday morning. Hosted by Daniel Harford, Brendon Goddard and Daniel Hoyne from Champion Data.

100%.

These two podcasts are awesome if you are keen on trying to understand exactly what is going on and what sort of information is driving coaching/match committee/recruiting decisions.

I enjoy that one.

I have subscribed to Trends and see how it goes.
