  • A Former Townsville Bulletin Sports Editor Who Played a Key Role in The
    A former Townsville Bulletin sports editor who played a key role in the establishment of the North Queensland Cowboys has called for major changes at board level to get the struggling club back on track. Doug Kingston, who floated the idea that North Queensland should have a Winfield Cup (now NRL) team in a story in the Townsville Bulletin back in 1989, called and chaired the first meeting, and worked on a voluntary basis to help get the team into the national competition, believes the current Cowboys board appears to have lost sight of the core reason the club was established. "Unless major changes are made in the composition of the Cowboys board the club faces a bleak future," Kingston said. "The secrecy surrounding the board of directors gives rise to suspicion that it is a closed shop, which has lost sight of the core reason the club was established. "During the past few weeks I have tried, unsuccessfully, to find out just who is on the NQ Cowboys board. My quest to identify the current board members included numerous Google searches and an email to NQ Cowboys chairman, Lewis Ramsay, requesting details of board members and the procedure for appointment of board members. I also asked Mr Ramsay if any of the current board members were elected by a vote of club members. "Mr Ramsay replied that these matters were ‘confidential’. Kingston then wrote back to Mr Ramsay saying: "In the absence of your advice to the contrary, I will assume that the Cowboys Leagues Club currently owns the North Queensland Cowboys football club/team, having acquired it in 2015 from News Limited.

  • Rugby-Bot: Utilizing Multi-Task Learning & Fine-Grained Features
    RUGBY-BOT:UTILIZING MULTI-TASK LEARNING & FINE-GRAINED FEATURES FOR RUGBY LEAGUE ANALYSIS APREPRINT Matthew Holbrook Jennifer Hobbs Patrick Lucey STATS, LLC STATS, LLC STATS, LLC Chicago, IL Chicago, IL Chicago, IL [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] October 17, 2019 ABSTRACT Sporting events are extremely complex and require a multitude of metrics to accurate describe the event. When making multiple predictions, one should make them from a single source to keep consistency across the predictions. We present a multi-task learning method of generating multiple predictions for analysis via a single prediction source. To enable this approach, we utilize a fine-grain representation using fine-grain spatial data using a wide-and-deep learning approach. Additionally, our approach can predict distributions rather than single point values. We highlighted the utility of our approach on the sport of Rugby League and call our prediction engine “Rugby-Bot”. Keywords Mixture Density Network · Multi-Task Learning · Embeddings · Rugby League · DVOA 1 Introduction For the past decade in sports analytics, the holy grail has been to find “the one best metric” which can best capture the performance of players and teams through the lens of winning. For example, expected metrics such as wins-above replacement (WAR) in baseball [1], expected point value (EPV) and efficiency metrics in basketball [2, 3] and expected goal value in soccer [4] are used as the gold-standard in team and player analysis. In American Football, Defense- Adjusted Value Over Average (DVOA) [5], is perhaps the most respected and utilized advanced metric in the NFL which utilizes both an expected value and efficiency metric, and analyzes the value of a play compared to expected for every play and also normalizes for team, drive and game context.

Rugby League as a Televised Product in the United States of America By Mike Morris Abstract Rugby league is a form of rugby that is more similar to American football than its more globally popular cousin rugby union. This similarity to the United States of America’s most popular sport, that country’s appetite for sport, and its previous acceptance of foreign sports products makes rugby league an attractive product for American media outlets to present and promote. Rugby league’s history as a working-class sport in England and Australia will appeal to American consumers hungry for grit and authenticity from their favorite athletes and teams.

    Article No. 6485 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Wednesday, 30 September 2015 Cowboys vs Broncos: a head-to-head comparison of the 2015 NRL Grand Final clubs’ supporters Know thy enemy: with the North Queensland Cowboys and Brisbane Broncos preparing for 2015’s ultimate Rugby League match this Sunday, Roy Morgan Research has the lowdown on their supporters. E 1,106,000 Australians 14+ support the Brisbane Broncos, almost three times as many as support the North Queensland Cowboys (389,000). But the Cowboys’ fan-base is much more gender neutral, with women making up 49% compared with just 40% of the Broncos’. In terms of club spirit, the teams are closely matched: slightly more Cowboys supporters attended a match (22% vs 19%), but Broncos fans are more likely to be a financial member of their club (5% vs 4%) or to play the sport themselves (4% vs 3%). The two sides share virtually the same proportions of fans that watch rugby matches on TV (80-81%) or bet on the sport this past year (3%). When deciding whose house to watch the game at, consider this: Cowboys supporters are more likely to have a swimming pool (21% vs 16%) but more Broncos fans have a barbecue (71% vs 66%). Broncos supporters are more likely to have been overseas in the past year (24% vs 21%), donate an average $40 more per year to charity, and spend $19 more going out during the week (although Cowboys supporters spend $8 more on at-home entertainment).
