thanks for doing the leg work.

That's AI content so you can thank it

Actually not a hard algorithm, goals divided by games played 😎

 

[Hello Sailor]

I just like stats

Prior Peter's reaction to hearing "F Test" "T test" "ANOVA", "Multivariate Analysis", "Chi square" and "Regression Analysis"

If Jacko were to leave. I wonder if forumnites would consider a replacement who:
- built a new team from scratch and took them to a prelim in their first season
- has a very good eye for young talent
- is proven to be able to work on a tight budget
- based on opinions here (I haven't watched many games) has their team playing a very competitive, proactive style of football?






Emily Husband

It's a no from me. Nothing against what she is doing for the women but that would be a massive step up. Would be a step backwards

Jeff Hopkins, current Victory W League coach would be a good choice.
Can teach our CB's how to defend

I know it’s all hypotheticals but Steeley & Alfie’s form would be completely different if we didn’t lose Tapp. Maybe if we had extra midfield depth we would’ve stayed in the treble winning 433 & had more control in the middle instead of struggling with the 442 and 5atb we’ve tried this season.

I can’t see our midfield stocks changing next season so will be exciting to see how everything links together with Tapp back, Alfie more settled & Eames another year older.

100% agree mate. A lot of people haven’t realised just how big of a loss Tappy has been.

 

[Josho Howe]

That's pretty exciting if accurate. Show us the money.

I suspect it's not true. No sources, not even "people close to the club"
Clickbait.
He has a 3 year scholarship and we need to sign him to a proper contract ASAP.
Hate to see him walk for peanuts when he does go

we can't until he's 18 iirc

[Meerkat]

I hope we keep him for a while. Mostly because I haven’t enjoyed watching a player as much as I enjoy watching him, in quite a while. I definitely don’t mean that in a creepy way 😂

 

[Hello Sailor]

I am excited for tomorrow night but also have some anxiety about what we can field against the opposition

 

[shipwreck]

If we can keep them to less than 6 goals I'll consider it a huge success.

If we can score a single goal, I'll lose my mind.

Yep, I have low expectations too, expect a spanking but hope we dont.

 

[Ironbark]

Surely if there is ever a time to get an injury replacement player it's now and for Edmo

The time was start of the season for Sainsbury, not to mention all the others we lost to injury after that. No chance it’s happening now.

 

[FFC Mariner]

I expect any insurance money went to underwrite MC's obligations

 

[shipwreck]

Yep. The team has been mercilessly left behind I'm afraid. Complete and utter write off of a season.

 

[Corsair]

Our premiums will be up next season...

 

[Ironbark]

I thought maybe as they were expecting Sains, MDP etc. back during the season then an injury replacement was not worth it. That is, keep the money to cover losses. Also you'd have to offload that injury replacement player when the injured player returns.

But since this is a clear 'out for the rest of the season' injury - and a visa player at that - we have the opportunity to pick up a free replacement player, ideally visa, until the end of season. Seems an important opportunity to consider.

I hope they're at least looking and thinking about it.
