Very interesting Tatus. Do you use this for work? If so what do you do if you don't mind me asking?

Serious answer though, it’s possibly just hyper vigilance mixed with general curiosity.

Started watching murder docos, then went to interrogations, then breakdowns of those from body language guys, then just went down the hardcore route.

There are these 4 guys on YouTube @thebehaviourchannel, they are awesome.

I did some sales back in the day, hospitality, managing/team training/supervising which you could apply it too.

Was always very conscious of body language in sales and it was something we were coached on, but it’s nothing like those 4 guys, which is where I started to understand things like “base lines.”

A “trick” they use is when trying to spot someone who is lying, is you want to know what their base line reaction is when telling the truth.

You’ll ask them questions you already know are true and gauge reaction, then you ask the question you think they might like about, and compare the two.

It’s not the only thing to focus on, just one of many “outliners” as they refer to it, such as tone, fidgeting, inflections, etc. When you have a bunch of the “outliners” appearing in “clusters,” clusters are a bunch of these outliners appearing at once that goes against their base line… this is usually the indicator that they are lying or whatever.

Cheers for the response. I find it fascinating and will try give them a watch.

Me too. Here is a short on their channel.

It’s much of a muchness, and like @BurgoShark said with the refs penalties, you have to take into a bunch of different variables, which is why it is important to have your “baseline.”

I reckon between me and @BurgoShark. We could check out @Born&bred’s posting habits, line them up with how many beers he’s said he’s had, and give you a graph that takes into account spelling, aggression levels, etc.

We would know exactly many beers he’s had at given time just based off the numbers and when he’s most likely to fly off the handle at people who are blaming the refs after a loss

(just stirring ya @Born&bred, no offence intended)

In an attempt to give Nicho his thread back, and all that being said. Go back and watch Nicho in the presser. He’s even more interesting. Honestly wouldn’t surprise me if he was high functioning and it’s been overlooked because he’s a gun athlete.

Personally I’ve always thought that the bunker should be isolated from the game. I.e. they don’t know the score and only see vision of the specific incident they are ruling on.

Something else I’ve always suspected but never seen any data on… is that teams trailing by 7+ points in the final 10 minutes or so tend to make a high amount of errors trying to play catch-up. Quite often a team who otherwise completed well all game will make 4-5 errors at the end of the game playing hot potato. I reckon you would see a clear difference in the good v bad teams on how they play late in games when chasing points, and imo that might be a much more useful stat than total completion%.

Isolate the players from the score you reckon?

I think he had a bit of alpha about him last night.

Not everything worked in attack (got caught with the ball a few times not much happening in their 20m) but boy his defence was on, kicked really well at times to pin them on their line, great ball to Wilton for Trickys try, ran it on last to set up Ronnie’s try, kicked all his goals from difficult spots and his field goal to show he can nail the big ones.

I liked that angry face. It’s like he’s showing he’s ready this year

attack will eventually come. Still early in the season. Him and Trindall I have no doubt will click and fire.
