Does anyone know the official way to rank teams in a ladder?
Is the secondary ranking based on points difference, or percentage of points difference?
Currently Spirit and Rays are equal on competition Points, but Rays have a larger points different, yet they have a smaller points percentage difference:
Spirit Points For = 190 Points Against = 119, 71 PD or 37.4% PD
Rays Points For = 213 Points Against = 140, 73 PD or 34.3% PD
Thanks!
Shouldn't the points difference for both these teams be greater than 100%. They have after all scored more points than their opposition.
I'd call the points differences
Spirit 159.66%
Rays 152.14%
using this method it'll always work out the same. as points differential.
Edit, oops no it won't!
I think they are going on just points diff. not % Coach.
Suspect the RWC will do likewise.
I thought a percentage scale would the points difference as a percentage of teh total number of points you have scored.
In order to have 100%, you have no points scored against you
In order to have 0%, you would have scored no points
In order to have 50%, you would have to have scored twice the number of points as were scored against you.
I only ask this as my my calculations, Spirit are 3rd on the ladder - the ABC table has them at 2nd...
I think AFL has 100% being equal points scored for and against, so 95% means more kicked against you and 105% means you've kicked more.
Would assume (if that is correct...) that would be standard across the sports.
Simple, Spirit are a gay team. All their points are worth less than the other teams.
Rams will be champs, I hear the trophy has already been handed over.
Chook, I'm surprised they actually had the trophy ready on time.
Thought it might be 'in the mail'
Western Sydney? They probably stole it dude....
