2026 : Simulating the Final Ladder Before Round 0

/

Welcome to the first season simulation for 2026.

As you might imagine, after more than a decade of simulating the remainder of men’s AFL seasons, the code required to do so has become … substantial. It now contains lines strewn throughout to handle this or that particular edge case — the introduction of a Round 0, the reintroduction of byes, including byes in the first round of a season, games that were supposedly from the same round but played months apart, and so on. It’s less a script now and more a living record of pandemics, bad weather, and competition rejiggery.

So when I heard that the League had confirmed that the 2026 season would involve a wildcard round, I looked forward to updating my code much as an American turkey looks forward to Thanksgiving.

FORECASTS FOR THE FINALS

MoSHBODS now has the following opinions about the Finals

Flag favouritism is then, currently, in order (with fair prices shown in brackets):

  • Geelong (about $2.65)

  • Adelaide (about $5)

  • Collingwood (about $6.25)

  • Brisbane Lions (about $6.70)

  • Gold Coast (about $16.70)

We can break down those numbers for each team now into which team they lose to in order to bow out in a particular week of the Finals.

Lastly, we can also take a look at likely Grand Final pairings and who fares best in each pairing.

The most common pairings are

  • Geelong / Adelaide, which accounts for about 23% of all Grand Finals. Geelong wins about 66% of those.

  • Geelong / Brisbane Lions: about 18% of GFs, Geelong wins about 65%

  • Collingwood / Adelaide: about 13% of GFs, Collingwood wins about 55%

  • Geelong / Collingwood: about 12% of GFs, Geelong wins about 64%

  • Brisbane Lions / Adelaide: about 9% of GFs, Brisbane Lions wins just over half

  • Collingwood / Brisbane Lions: about 5% of GFs, Collingwood wins about 54%

LIKELIHOOD OF AN ALL NON-VICTORIAN TEAM gRAND fINAL

After last week’s results, which meant that the Suns entered the Finals at the expense of the Dogs, there was an increase in the probability that the Grand Final will involve two non-Victorian teams this year.

The new numbers suggest that there’s now only about a 1-in-8 chance that both of the Grand Finalists will be from Victoria, but about another near 3-in-4 chance that just one of the Grand Finalists will be a Victorian team.

That leaves about 1-in-8 Grand Finals where there is no Victorian representation. If there is to be no Victorian team involvement, by far the most likely State matchup is Queensland v South Australia.

With just a single home and away game yet to play, the only interest is in estimating:

  1. The probability that Gold Coast defeat Essendon and thereby claim a spot in the Finals at the expense of Western Bulldogs

  2. The probability that they do so by a sufficiently wide margin to have them finishing above Hawthorn

To finish above Hawthorn:

  • If Gold Coast scores 80 points, they need to win by 26 points or more

  • If Gold Coast scores 100 points, they need to win by 29 points or more

  • If Gold Coast scores 120 points, they need to win by 32 points or more
