The weekend wrap

This weekend there was only 5 NBL games on, so plenty of time to make some big updates to the site!

NBL

The NBL season simulation received the same treatment as the A-League and AFL. The prediction model accurately predicted 4/5 games in round 6. The team with the biggest gain was Melbourne United with +15 rating points. The New Zealand Breakers had the biggest rating point loss (-18) this round.

A-League

I have changed the way the season is predicted so season simulations take into account change in Elo rating. This means a more accurate (hopefully) prediction of how the season will play out. The A-League ladder also now includes the weekly change in Elo rating. Elo predictions shown in the season view are still based on a team's current rating, and I'm planning to leave it that way.

AFL

Likewise the AFL season simulation has been updated to include changes in Elo rating when simulating the season. Similar to the A-League, the percentage chance shown in the season view are based on the teams current rating.

BBL

No major changes to the predictions at this stage, but it will be updated to be like the other sports in the next week or two. A brand new season view (to match the other three sports) will be up soon!
