{fitzRoy} 1.5.0 has been released on CRAN.

Many thanks to @random_effects for a mountain of work optimising code and squashing bugs over the last few weeks! Read about the changes here https://t.co/SltC7eINUZ

I've collated the publicly Brownlow model predictions + some private ones. Will do a write-up tomorrow with the results and discuss the big surprises. If you have a model, hit me up in DMs/comments! Good luck!

Open work benefits

[Richard Little @alittlefitness]

@figuringfooty @CapitalCityCody @BreeseEmlyn Melbourne looking much more normal now. Very much the benefit in having other people check your work!!!

[Analysis of AFL @anoafl]

@david_carey1 Interesting, is there a write up or code of how similar games are defined?

[Analysis of AFL @anoafl]

@Deanos_DT @AFLFantasy @MoreirasMagic Definitely @MoreirasMagic hearing the team is going to be putting out some fantastic stuff

V handy for #fitzRoy useRs

[Ellis Hughes @ellis_hughes]

Feelin Fuzzy? @OSPpatrick and I work through identifying players using fuzzy joins to standardize names of sports ball players against that in your database.

We use two different techniques, using base #rstats agrep and #tidyverse -esq {fuzzyjoin}!

finally AFL analytics moving forward

[Liam 🐦 @crow_data_sci]

You can rerun my AFL Win Probability Added (WPA) analysis from my stream and thread here. If you're statistically inclined, try to build a model that's better than mine! #RStats https://t.co/ozkfj0pQck

Great important work being done here!
Why isn't the AFL running its own competition - why is it up to volunteers?

[Kate O'Halloran @Kate_ohalloran]

Had lots of fun doing this piece on the team behind @aflwfantasy - why they're dedicating hours of volunteer time to grow fan engagement in #AFLW and to improve conditions for #womeninsport more broadly. #aflwfantasy #FantasyFootball https://t.co/fuIR7jGBhh via @ABCaustralia

@plusSixOneblog the package got mentioned in my uni class (not formally, just when bantering with the tutor)

[Analysis of AFL @anoafl]

This is great content

[Gemma @glbastiani]

Fun thing. I’m going to be doing a fortnightly piece for @abcsport this #AFLW season. Here is the first - players to watch.

AFL stats fans wanting stats reminds me of the classic image below
Also a reminder of how poor the league treats it's fans and how reliant a billion dollar industry is on volunteers

[Analysis of AFL @anoafl]

Maybe if data was open more "official sources" would write about better things more often

[Cody Atkinson @CapitalCityCody]

I guess poor imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Ok folks, I'm going to try out Twitch. I'll be streaming some coding because I am bored. Please let me know if the stream stays on rstudio and if my microphone isn't terrible.

[Darren O'Shaughnessy @RankingSw]

CD: We have turned this binary variable {Goal | Not-Goal} into a continuous value
Statisticians: Bravo! Less noise in this metric
CD: Now we will dichotomise the totals into this bigger binary variable {Win | Loss}
S: Wait … what?! NO!
