@AFLSaddestFan Only loser proofread tweets.

Start? You haven’t shut up since the best the Lions. Give it a rest.

What even was that from Baker? Madness.

Shit hey.

If that’s 50, we’re cooked.

@TheBackPocketAU @chris_willo @onepercentas It’s like a one team baton relay.

@chris_willo @onepercentas Bet you thought I forgot about this, but I didn't. And also geez that's grim to watch in isolation, I can see why you've pinpointed it.

I was feeling polemical, so for this week's review, I articulated my worries about the effect of the recent set of rule changes. That, plus clips, graphs, statistical nuggets, and recommended reading from friends of the newsletter. onepercenters.net.au/p/has-the-afl-…

Bond out Jones in. Final Tip. Bulldogs by 16 points, with a 67.5% chance of victory.

@TheBackPocketAU Fair.

@DogsBreakfastFC He's gone 44, 37 and 42 goals in his last three full seasons of footy, I'm hesitantly allowing "Gun" but there's no chance "Star" will be granted.

We sure we’re using the term “gun” correctly?

@westernbulldogs You should actually ask Siri…

Hey Siri, define "eating crow" It's game day, dogs fans 🐶

@JamesBland_Econ @MatterOfStats @RalphyHeraldSun I’d assume the break would give them the ability to hit higher speeds and run more kms. Not easily accessible data, but if the theory held any water, you’d think you’d see it there.

@MatterOfStats @RalphyHeraldSun FWIW I added a "freshness factor" to my model this week. The units are extra points per day of rest. Nothing particularly conclusive.

Melbourne’s young side has to wait until round 16 for their only bye while the Hawks have perfectly-placed byes in round 3 and round 14. Two byes before the Demons get one

@MatterOfStats @RalphyHeraldSun The pre-finals bye in 2016 was nicely timed for the Dogs.

@RalphyHeraldSun Curious what statistical evidence you might have that shows byes are advantageous to the recipients. Or, have you just assumed that without research?

@Slabotage What? No. This is some of Michael Wilson’s finest.

@DogsBreakfastFC AI slop. 🤮

@JRobbo @TrentC_95 How’d that work out for old Darth?

@DogsBreakfastFC @TrentC_95

Oh my god. Stop. It’s been 2 games.

@lenphil29 Was more than the question deserved. Surprised he didn’t ask him about potential trade targets.

"nah who cares mate" please someone clip that up hahahahaha

@AlMacca84 @lenphil29 Tried to get him to blame the 5 day break vs the 6 day break.

@lenphil29 What did he ask him? I missed it

@beartorius As free flowing as under 10s on a dewy morning.

I hope I never see another minute of football like this again this season.

@AbdullahHepC Dogs and Crows defenders.

Crofty,Sam and Naughty will cause issues for the crows back six, they dont have the talls to cover that. #MightyWest

@fromthe_topdeck Undefeated m8.

I expect them to be good but they've done what now?

@PalmyBulldogs1 Poor bloke has earned a few runs and keeps losing his spot through injury. Hope he keeps his head up and busts the door down again. His speed and pressure is unique in the team.

@DogsBreakfastFC He was a hard one where there’s nobody that really deserves to come out for him but I’m sure he’ll force his way back in. Looked a brutal hit so don’t mind him coming back through he VFL, can take players a few games to get back some touch after a concussion

No Arty. 😞
