Question

How are the % points worked out in aussie rules?

Answer 1

It is the percentage of "points for" to "points against".

Eg, West Coast:

1024 points for, 1024 points against = 100%

Answer 2

simply divide points scored FOR by points scored Against ,

(eg) 963 for divided By 762 agst  =126.4%

Answer 3

Calculation of Ladder

Each team receives four match points for a win and two match points for a tie

POINTS FOR = total points scored by the team as an aggregate of it's scores for the season

POINTS AGAINST = total points scored against the team as an aggregate of it's opponents' scores for the season

Determining of Ladder Positions

1. Total number of match points ( i.e. Wins & Ties)

2. Scoring Percentage: calculated as follows: (Points For divided by Points Against) x 100

Scoring Percentage simply expresses the teams proportion of points scored for every 100 points scored against it

CALCULATION OF PERCENTAGE                

                  

..................P..W L....For Against %  Points

Geelong 19 14 5 - 2194 1647 133.2 56

FOR EXAMPLE

Geelong: 2194 points for divided by 1647 points against = 1.332119 x 100 = 133.2119%

i.e. for every 100 points scored against Geelong, the Cats have scored just over 133 points
