those examples are from a long time ago


incidentally they seemed to drop off exporting the same time as us. Exports over the last 5 years hasn't been great
Perhaps Europe started throwing their nets further and wider around the mid naughties

shame about ryan getting injured twice when he nails down the starting role

funny i was just looking over whoscored this morning as well. 

they gave mooy a 6.3 and luongo a 7.4 for the game.

Some similarities. Perhaps in terms of per capita and the fact that both countries have lots of athletes strong in multiple sports.

But, as has already been mentioned, the population of the US is so much greater. That helps them.

They also have a truckload of Hispanic support for the game which we'd kill for.

Green Gully product m80! ;)

I have often wondered why the mainstream media don't do Aussies Abroad, honestly. Maybe I'm inside the bubble of Australian football talk, but with Aussie media loving Australian sportspeople and the lip service provided to the scores from the odd major teams in the EPL you would imagine that Aussies playing for or against big teams would be obvious sports stories (Jones' clean sheet against Manchester United or Leckie vs Bayern Munich in the last 72 hours as the first examples that come to my head), but there's nothing. Sounds like an easy win, to be honest, given the desperate scraping for Australian glory they do in every other sport, especially come Olympics years.

From my experience in Australian media I would say that the barrier is that this would require actual work rather than copying what they are sent, which is obviously far too much to ask. Really sad.

Imagine a day where the mainstream TV stations go into depth about Australian players and their games, as well as detailed reports on the A-League, and then quickly show the score from the weekend's AFL and NRL games!

Celtic too at a reasonable time. 

Sparta tonight, 8:30 pm
Rosenborg 4:00 am

Is Sparta on bet 365?

Jeggo was top notch, riding high with Graz. They play Salzburg in two weeks.

Dougall and Mauk on the bench. No Goodwin.

whoscored don't seem to give points for pass accuracy or number of passes
from what I can tell their formula looks something like this

+0.2 for a tackle or intercept
+0.1 for a clearance
-1 for a mistake leading to goal or red card
-0.2 if you get a yellow card or were dribbled around
-0.2 for entire backline (and DMs seem to get a hit) for a goal conceded
+1 for last man tackle/cleared off the line

+0.2 for a chance created or an accurate cross/through ball/long ball
+0.2 for a 15m dribble
+1 for goal/assist/hit post
-0.2 for being tackled/disposessed
+0.2 for a shot on target
also your points appear to decline for minutes on pitch

that because pass accuracy doesn't mean shit to winning football games....it is of no importance, in teams winning games....people who talk about pass accuracy, are people who don't know what the key things that go to  make a winning football player or teams (that most of people in football)

the total number of passing is also not  statistical importance

what is in importance, is the number of passer the go past opponent player , with more  important on the number of times passing the ball go past   defense positions

Huddersfield forum seems to think Mooy looked a bit tired and off his game today. He's played a lot recently on top of travelling.

QPR forum in meltdown so no news on how Luongo played.

I kinda agree with your broken English.
You can pass the ball infinitum, but the trick is to make forward passes that make a difference.

Should be, sorry Spata at 10:30

Mooys role though is to be a link between attack and defence. If he cuts out a line with a pass and does it with the highest accuracy in the league that is one of the most important parts of his job

Yes
But Ardho makes a point, pass accuracy can be construed because it is all back passes, or sideways passes. Mooy excels because he has great vision and his forward passes are well weighted. 

well it not me saying it.....it the Statistical software that says it :)       but it is my  broken English :)

what is your native language ifyou dont mind me asking

Thank you for posting that I was very curious how they do it I enjoyed watching Mathew Leckie smash his inside parts of that first Assist was superb is present on the field positioning placement and tracking back excellent and then the way he dealt with me to buy an Defenders the one we should have scored a goal kicking it into the goalkeepers met with a miracle reflex save eventually would have done for people if he scored that and it would have been probably the best goal he scored in his life

I don't think computer scoring captures that

p.s great job in finding there formula, i was looking for it...but from what i know, they give points for winning headers to
