Six of the nine early-week favourites won this week, and with contrarian behaviour coming from only MARS_Marg and Home Sweet Home, all other Tipsters scored six while registered five and four respectively. That left Bookie Knows Best and ENS_Linear atop the Head-to-Head Tipsters’ Leaderboard, now on 156.5 from 207 (76%) and five tips clear only of RSMP_Weighted.

The all-Tipster average score came in at 5.7 from 9, taking the season-long figure to 146.8 from 207 (71%).

Margin prediction was, on average, much harder this week, with mean absolute errors (MAEs) ranging from Bookie3’s best of 27 points per game to MoSHPlay_Marg’s worst of 32.9 points per game.

Bookie_LPSO remains in top spot and now just over four goals ahead of RSMP_Weighted, with Bookie_Hcap and ENS_Linear less than four points further back. MoSHPlay_Marg remains in last place, now by just under 30 goals.

The all-Predictor average for the round was 29.9 points per game, which was 13 points per game higher than last week and took the season-long figure to 25.3 points per game.

Log probability scores were all positive again this week, but with the bookie-based scoring higher than the MoS trio. Best was Bookie_RE and worst was MARS_Prob.

Bookie_LPSO still holds top spot with MoSHPlay_Prob in second position, but with Bookie_RE slipping in ahead of MoSHBODS_Prob for third. MARS_Prob remains in last place.

WAGERING

Only the Overs/Unders Fund made money this week, but nowhere near enough to cover the losses of the Head-to-Head and Line Funds.
