Round 5: Teams and In-Game Discussions
- Thread starter Damoz
- Start date
Ablett's last quarter was one of the first things that came to my mind as well. Comparing the two, I thought Ablett was underscored and Cotchin over scored (noting I don't have Gaz but do have Cotchin).
The end result for me is the obvious factor but the goals Gaz kicked which are clear, can't-be-misinterpreted points whereas Cotchin's scoring stats were less obvious. Had the tiges won, everyone would definitely be a little more accepting of the 80 I'm sure.
The unforgotten in all of this is Ballantyne in my opinion. As jordy said, deserved a lot more.

Anyway thanks to a couple good performance from the lads, I've managed to get my score back on track after macaffer and Dwyer.
1020/10 (9+C)
Cotchin 144
Martin 115
Fyfe 93
I'm actually a little disappointed with fyfe's final score after his good start. Especially seeing Freo won nd all the points being thrown around in the last.

You are missing the point.
Those live scores are an indication of the scores of that quarter... assuming every quarter is weighted exactly the same which is rarely the case. The MATCH scoring involves weighting most important parts of game being worth more points... hence post match scaling is the real scoring

I think that's what most arguments boil down to but in all honesty if I was a Cotchin owner I'd be thrilled too...but feel like you've gotten away with robbery...and it's only the one-eyed that cant see it was crazy.
As others have said, there's no way that quarter was on par with Ablett's, where he single-handedly WON the game.

Yep the scaling and heavily weighted stats make the early points scored almost redundant in close games.
Obviously we'll never truly know how Cotchin was scored but I was watching his points in the last and it must've jumped something like 50 pts in the space of a few minutes with a handful of touches (albeit important ones) so there will be a few question marks.
