The Strength Institute Ep. 10 - World Rugby Rankings
Friday Sep 20, 2019
Friday Sep 20, 2019
In this podcast, we take a “behind the scenes” look at the World Rugby (Union) Rankings. After much research, World Rugby claims that its adapted version of the Elo Rating system is the most effective way to predict the probability of a team winning and therefore the most accurate ranking system for Rugby Union. Stay tuned to see if this is really the case…
ALL CREDIT for this concept and hands on number crunching goes to the “numbers man” Kai Striega!
