AI Game Review

Wests Tigers defied the model's 62% prediction for Warriors — a notable upset. The margin model missed here — predicting 4.6 but the actual margin was 18 points. Total score prediction of 48 was close to the actual 46 — within 2 points. Wests Tigers led 10–16 at the break and pulled away in the second half to win by 18. The model went 1/4 on this match. The 1-12 margin band call landed.
