The 2019 AFLW season starts on Saturday with the opening game between Geelong and Collingwood (link to fixtures).
I have some data from last year’s regular season (link) curated as secondary data from the official AFLW web site (link).
Median Profiles
A Violin Plot created with BoxPlotR (link). (W1Q is the winning team, L1Q is the losing team).
Plot information
These data have given me an opportunity to postulate some naive priors about when points will be scored in the 2019 season. The probabilities per quarter are based upon game outcome so that the labels ‘winning’ and ‘losing’ relate to the game not the quarter.
