Regularly and quite amusingly incorrectly. Best one that I've seen to date was a 40point error in prediction/swing from just before half time to the actual final score.

Quote: Mark_W "Some statistician puts a number of match facts and stats into account to predict the final outcome of the match'"


Worse than that, it's an economist. A statistician would give you an estimate of uncertainty. Only an economist or Clarkey would put that much faith in his model.

Precisely - the whole premise of the margin meter seems designed to spoil the game as a spectacle; not that it will ever work of course, but the logic is flawed. Get rid.

It has to be one of the more useless ideas that Sky have promoted in their increasingly gimmicky approach to Rugby League.

Get rid.

I quite like it. Clarkey just needs to tweak his algorithms a bit and Betfred will be p00ing themselves.

More comedy and reliability from the Margin Meter.

A few minutes into the Second Half, with Wakefield still trailing, it predicted a Wildcat win by 18. Ludicrous.

Has it been correct yet?
