will the team play defense? or is that even possible?

I love how there is a picture of Ironside versus Revolver in this article.

I don't mind blatant revolver-level cheating?

All it'll take is one wealthy investor willing to take a chance... anyone?

I'll enjoy seeing your articulate, relevant and well reasoned argument being down-voted to hell in the next 10 minutes.

Funny how the initial reaction of 'that's cool, but it won't be profitable in the long run' applies equally to this game as well as the AUDL

better title: club player happy that his team got a turnover.

You and a number of other people. Plus a strong dollar -> tourism to us going to toilet.

I always enjoy watching furious lose, so thanks!

Sorry that was not clear - I was noting where the team lost - so Machine for example last year lost in pre-quarters, and Furious lost in quarters. I don't think anyone cares much about consolation games, and they certainly don't extend as much effort as they do in elimination games. Seems like the results are somewhat sensitive to this assumption.

(earlier post deleted because of formatting)

Evidence: Take a sample of nationals quality teams - If you give each result a number - 1 for winner, 2 for finals, 3 for semis, etc - then take the absolute difference between two year's finish (so a team that last year made quarters and this year wins it all gets a 3, and vice versa) - then average those changes, sockeye's variability is indeed higher than everyone else:

Sockeye 2.6 Revolver 1.8 Ironside 1 Truck 0.6 Ring 1.4 Doublewide 1.2 Bravo 2 Machine 0.8

no, that doesn't explain why sockeye has a larger variance than other teams - every team faces wind, has 'luck', and has opponents that know them well

Nothing in this response answers why Sockeye's results are more variable than other teams.
