Carlton 4 2 1 1 135.02 10 Due to the war and its impact on Australian society the carnival was a flop. Essendon 4 2 1 1 131.97 10 Melbourne 4 2 1 1 116.18 10 War was declared almost on the eve of the carnival in August and by the 20th of the month, 10,000 men from Sydney had signed up to fight.

  • Blackbird Case Study NRL Copy
    CASE STUDY Australian National Rugby League turns to Blackbird to drive brand reach, engagement and monetization Australia’s National Rugby League (NRL) is the most viewed and attended rugby league club competition in the world. 16 professional men’s rugby teams, including the enormously popular Sydney Roosters, Melbourne Storm and Brisbane Broncos, compete annually for the prestigious Telstra Premiership title. With the phasing out of SnappyTV, the NRL sought an alternative cloud video editing platform that could continue to significantly build the sport’s brand and reach by delivering engaging content to multiple platforms faster than any other solution on the market. After extensive research into available systems, the NRL chose Blackbird. Every weekend, live streams of the 8 games are run through the Microsoft Azure cloud from the NRL’s content partners’ production locations. Based in Sydney, the NRL’s digital team use Blackbird to rapidly clip, edit and publish highlights during and post-match to Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. Clips can be delivered to social platforms within 30 seconds – with emojis added and players and sponsors tagged for further engagement and reach. Idents, overlaid stills and animations and sponsor logos are easily added with geo and playback restrictions implemented to support international rights control. www.blackbird.video CONTINUED 800,000 fans globally with an NRL Watch account can enjoy premium video on-demand (VOD) content consisting of longer form match highlights, player interviews and behind the scenes content – all edited in Blackbird. With a cumulative TV audience of 116 million and over 2.9 million <30 Seconds fans regularly engaging with the sport on social media, the NRL clip from live game to social exceeded Australian Rules Football in popularity last year for the first time since 2010, boasting revenues of over $500m.

  • 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.

  • Nick Tedeschi's NRL Tips Sheet: Round 6
    Nick Tedeschi's NRL Tips Sheet: Round 6 Round 5 Results: 20 units bet, +1.16 units, +5.8% POT ​ Newcastle v Brisbane There is too much confusion about this one to be able to bet it confidently. There is no question the Knights are a better team. They are faster, better coached, possess more experience and have maybe the best three players on the paddock. The Knights though are a poor 6-13 ATS since 2008 against the Broncos though and favourites of more than a converted try off a double digit loss cover at just 44%. Brisbane have some good numbers, covering 12 of 19 as an underdog off a loss and 11 of 16 interstate getting 4 or more. The Broncos aren’t under the same searing pressure this week though and there is no Kotoni Staggs so cannot be getting involved. Tip: Newcastle ​ Recommended Bet: No Bet ​ South Sydney v New Zealand Close to coming into a bet with the Warriors here getting 7.5 points. The Rabbitohs are in a definite play-against spot. They have covered just 4 of 13 when favoured and just 6 of 15 when favoured by 6.5 or more. Souths have covered just 1 of 4 at Bankwest and only 6 of 18 night games. Favourites of 6.5 or more off scoring 30 cover at just 42% in the first eight rounds of the season. The Warriors have covered 13 of 17 in Australia but it is hard to know what kind of Warriors will show up here.

  • Allianz Stadium Redevelopment – Key Partner Question and Answer
    Allianz Stadium Redevelopment – Key Partner Question and Answer Why is the NSW Government redeveloping stadiums at Parramatta, Sydney Olympic Park and the SCG precinct? The NSW Government has invested to redevelop Sydney stadia to ensure Sydney is the sporting capital of Australia. The decision provides greater ability for the NSW Government to keep Sydney’s venues viable in order to secure the major events in NSW that can generate more jobs and economic activity. Why are we knocking down Allianz Stadium? Allianz Stadium is now 30 years old and has reached the end of its useful life. It has provided the stage for some of Australia’s biggest sporting moments including rugby league grand finals, Bledisloe Cups and FIFA World Cup qualifiers. But just as we outgrew the Sydney Sports Ground in the mid-1980s, the time has come to develop the next generation world-class rectangular stadium in Sydney’s original sporting precinct. Why are we spending so much on new stadiums when schools and hospitals should be the priority? The NSW Government’s investment of roughly $2 billion is budgeted to be spent over a period in which the health and education budgets tally more than $400 billion. The economic impact of the SCG Trust’s operations to the NSW economy is estimated at nearly $1 billion per year, with ANZ Stadium providing a similar benefit. The NSW Government’s investment in stadium infrastructure will be paid back in one year, and the new stadiums will provide an even greater economic benefit, with thousands of new jobs tied to the construction of the venues.
