Something a bit different from me, I'm trying out a print on demand shopfront. First thing up is this score progression of Brisbane's 2025 finals. #AFLGF I made the same for Melbourne's 2021 series and it's got pride of place hanging in my office. credit-to-du-bois.printify.me/product/2352...

@gameonysus.bsky.social super late on this but you said the words narrative Tetris on remap 109 and I hope you’ve seen this store.steampowered.com/app/2525310/...

I put down my thoughts on Simon Goodwin's tenure at Melbourne credittodubois.com/blog/history...

Before deploying AI in Pac-Man, prototypes shipped with 4 trained lizards inside the machine who moved the ghosts. The “kill screen” referred to an unfortunate level configuration which would reliably euthanise the lizards.

No notes. This is perfect

Some data to back up the understanding of what different ruck contest outcomes lead to

Say what you like about ChatGPT and other LLMs, but they have achieved things scholars previously thought impossible. Like making content on LinkedIn worse.

One of my strongest beliefs is if they actually put this on Broadway it would absolutely destroy at the award shows and run for 20 years

Is Rix Road the best season finale made?

You can tell Barrett isn’t serious about football because he doesn’t mention Jakovich in his “incredible first 33 game goal hauls” para on Logan Morris Streets won’t forget.

Guest commentator?

alright, curtain raiser is done, now time for the main event: SEN talkback

So do they do the Carlton thing and sack him tomorrow, or do they go against type, show some patience, and wait til Monday morning to sack him?

This is why Melbourne so desperately needs a proper training base. Any random can walk by Gosch’s paddock and steal our groundbreaking footy IP of “kick to a target”

Woody is one of the best footy content creators around, this is a great video on modern approaches to assessing kicking effectiveness with a particular focus on the great work by @crowdatasci.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhse...

I mean, it's not *as influential as a ruck can be* but it was pretty good

I sincerely hope the AFL asks “what the fuck are you dickheads doing” of fox. Whoever directed the Carlton North broadcast decided not once, but twice, to cut to distraught kids crying. The last thing some primary school kid needs is their face plastered over socials thanks to you gronks.

This Week In Football I looked at goalkicking (and, briefly, defence) through the lens of Volume, Quality, and Execution thisweekinfootball.com/twif/round-1... Volume - number of shots generated Quality - the position and context of those shots Execution - capitalising on the shots taken

Me rewatching rogue one a few days ago: mon mothma did saw dirty, an extremist?? He’s a realist Me seeing saw turn up for the first time in andor and have 30 seconds screen time: oh my god dude shut up

Getting #PowerBI to look good is akin to sculpting in marble. You better have a real good idea of what you want from the start, and be prepared to spend a long fucking time chiselling away everything else.

This Week In Football features THREE articles on bad kicking. We haven't had this level of concurrent evolution of thought since "freo are slow, eh?". Includes my observation that lower clanger/disposal rate is a better win predictor than disposal count. thisweekinfootball.com/twif/round-1...

The worst part about blighttown isn't failing to get into blighttown. Its making it to the first bonfire and then being trapped there, unable to escape or progress further. But its also something that makes dark souls 1 so unique, something the other games don't have the patience for. And I miss it

My thoughts on Koz’s reported new contract Money wise? No issues at all, he’s our second best player and brings a huge amount both in results and watchability. Guys like him, Farmer, Jackson, Davey, Jakovich etc do so much in getting and keeping kids in red and blue. Length-wise? I’m nervous.

not every year we get three perth derbies

Today's stat of the day goes back 19 years to see Port take a record 38 marks inside 50 in their 96 point thrashing of Hawthorn. Warren Tredrea took 10 himself, plus another 6 marks, kicked 3 goals 3 behinds, and recorded 5 goal assists.

Daisy Pearce and Erin Phillips represent two very different, but equally worthy versions of women in footy pre-AFLW. Erin pursued other sports after being told no, Daisy raised the standard of the then-VWFL to force the AFL’s hand. Two outstanding people who I am grateful for.

I don't think I'm going to be this much of an absolute mess again until Max retires

me when erin gets inducted: this is fucking amazing me when daisy gets inducted: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

good to see melbourne have learnt from past experience offering mega-length contracts to retain players.
