Stanley H Lewis

[johnnoperth]

Another one for Prof spell_check - does anyone still keep up to date stats for Stanley Lewis Mem Trophy. The Blueboys would have to be giving that a shake at present I'd speculate

[Grahaml]

As best I can make it Sturt are 240 behind Central ATM. If Sturt's reserves went down then they're 290 behind. Sturt, Port and North are all on about the same now I think, but the magpies have played 1 more game than Sturt, and North 1 less.

[spell_check]

That's about right.

[Grahaml]

This is probably wrong, but should be close.
CD 1290

Dogs for the taking ATM.

I've said it many times. When you're working this out, 90% of the time you can ignore the junior results.

1 league win is worth about 5 U17 wins.

It's a senior football result trophy only.

North won it last year, from memory. It's not just about the League side...

[Grahaml]

No, but they finished 2nd in the league and top in the reserves. Both under age teams missed the finals. Senior teams, especially the league, get so many points for a win the junior grades are like percentage: Won't get you anywhere in reality, but might act like some sort of tiebreaker.

[doggies4eva]

The league points = Ressies + U19 + U17 and

Ressies = U19 + U17

so its weighted to the Senior ranks which seems to me to be reasonable.

Doggies for the 07 Stanley

[Grahaml]

Just to reinforce how much this is weighted towards the league, and a bit the reserves, Port won the most matches across all grades, but came 3rd in the Stan, some 450 points behind North. Can Mr Spell_Check produce a stat to show the non minor premier winners, and how far bhind the minor premiers they were? I'd ignore occurences where the teams were only separated by %.

[spell_check]

1963 - Port, 1/2 a win behind
1965 - Norwood, 4 wins behind
1966 - North, 5
1974 - Norwood, 3
1975 - Glenelg, 1
1976 - Glenelg, 3
1979 - Port, 1 1/2
1982 - Norwood, 1 1/2
1983 - Sturt, 2
1984 - Norwood, 4
1985 - Norwood, 1/2
1986 - Norwood, 4
1987 - Norwood, 5
1989 - Port, 1
1990 - Glenelg, 1/2
1994 - Port, 3
1995 - Norwood, 1/2
1998 - Norwood, 3
2005 - North, 3

Norwood in 1996 and North in 2006 were separated from top spot by percentage.

[redandblack]

Proves the point.

West last year finished 3rd in Reservwes, 2nd in 19's and top in 17's. the League were bottom, so you wouldn't expect a very high placing, but I think they finished way, way down.
