How does Teagues percentage look with the GWS game included?

How would Bolton's look without said match?

Percentage is a very flaky indicator.  One bad game can make it look really bad if you aren't winning well most weeks.

[Lods]

At the start of the season when you're dealing with small numbers percentages can fluctuate wildly from week to week.
After only 4 games it's the same with Teague's numbers.

Say we win the game this week 100 points to 60 our percentage under Teague will be around 113%
A forty point win will change his percentage by nearly 10 percentage points.

On the other hand if we lose by 60 points to 100 our percentage under Teague will be around 93%
A forty point loss will change the percentage by around 10 percentage points the other way.
Win or lose by 40 points can make a 20point difference in your percentage with small numbers.

Contrast that with a 40 point loss to Essendon in Rd 11 where our percentage went from76.7 to 74.3
The same 40 point loss only resulted in a less than 3% change in percentage.

With bigger 'For and Against' totals (around 1100 to 1300) the margins and big wins and losses don't impact to the same extent as the do when you're dealing with numbers around the 350 to 400 mark

So while we can't put a lot of store in Teague's percentage in isolation at present it will be more comparable after he's had the same 11 games that Bolton had.
It is trending in the right direction at the moment and what can't be denied is that under him it has improved from 74.3% to 81.8%

As I said - limited data set under Teague.

But to take the same group of players that Bolton had and produce this for even 4 weeks is certainly a credit to him.

As everyone quite rightly points out it could all fall apart this week - but so far so good.

Smashing the Swans would be handy!

After 17 games we’re within 10 goals of last year’s 22 game total.
Percentage wise we continue the upward trend under Teague... up more than 10% since round 11.
It’s a bit of a dubious comparison because we’ve played different sides and there have been some significant changes but…. had we started the season with the results of the last six weeks we would have been sitting sixth, ahead of current top eight clubs - West Coast Richmond, Brisbane, Essendon and Adelaide.

A ladder conducted over the last six weeks sees us as the 5th most successful club during that period

Fun fact...
Someone did a '1 goal margin result reversal' ladder recently.
(That is, take all the games you lost by a goal and under, and call that a win....and take all the games you won by a goal and under and call that a loss.)
And we snuck in the 8!

I was banging on about how unlucky we were in the early stages of 2019 and a couple of things go our way (instead of against) and we are in a completely different situation. Thats proof.

If we didn't have bad luck, we'd have no luck at all!

Also worth pointing out that the ladder above didn't take into account how we were robbed against the pies with free kicks, especially in the last 5 minutes. Or how we simply couldn't kick straight against the swans, and they couldn't miss....

[Thryleon]

Some perspective.

We've played gold coast (18th), Melbourne (17th), sydney (15th), freo (11th), brisbane (2nd) and the bulldogs (12th).

I'm glad we are doing better, but so we should be.
