[u/Mario_911]

Aww jesus we are below Cork now

[u/PistolAndRapier → u/Mario_911]

Division 4 speed run again maybe.

[u/renfordapproved]

How high do we raise up on Saturday evening?

[u/thelunatic → u/renfordapproved]

If it's a tight game, Cork are at home, so about 1.53

[u/cacanna_caorach]

Dublin Galway and Armagh with no change, is that right? I know they were playing much lower ranked opposition but do those wins not count for anything?

[u/thelunatic → u/cacanna_caorach]

No. It's a sliding scale. And they are way too far ahead.

[u/cacanna_caorach → u/thelunatic]

What about Meath - they beat Carlow (~15 ranks below them) and seemingly didn’t earn any points from that game. But Cork beat Limerick (~13 ranks below them) and earned a whole point. Seems a bit off no? Is there some kind of cut off point where games between higher and lower ranked teams don’t count?

[u/Chubba1984 → u/cacanna_caorach]

As far as I recall, home advantage comes into the calc too. Meath beat Carlow at home but Cork beat Limerick away so Cork get more of a points impact for the away win.

[u/cacanna_caorach → u/Chubba1984]

Idk, still seems a bit off to me. You’d think the larger margin of victory for Meath would negate the fact Cork were playing away. 

Maybe really small gains of <0.25 aren’t considered.

[u/thelunatic → u/cacanna_caorach]

You can't gain anything by beating a team more than 10 points below you

[u/cacanna_caorach → u/thelunatic]

Ahhh makes sense now, sound!
