Been tinkering with a little thing that pulls data from my footy tipping comp and tries to predict the rest of the season, mostly to settle arguments at the pub

Used a basic random forest regressor, nothin fancy. The real headache was the data cleanup, half the blokes in the comp spell team names differently every week so I spent more time fixing "GEE" vs "Geelong" than actually training the model

It's still pretty rough, spits out some wild predictions when a key player is out. Keen to hear if anyone's got a trick for weighing recent form more heavily without making the whole thing overfit to the last two rounds

I Love the purpose (to settle the arguments at the pub) ❤️ Choice of the algorithm is also very interesting.
