Last half Melbourne 12 goals Crows 3 goals.
To me that is a thrashing!

It was a thrashing. Crows were expected to win by the margin they lost by.

Nail on the head, all to do with expectation

Carlton were thrashed by Port at Adelaide Oval a few weeks ago. But Melbourne didn't 'thrash' Adelaide. 40 odd points isn't a thrashing I wouldn't have thought. Adelaide were thrashed in the second half but not overall (if that makes sense).
Maybe 60 points is the threshold in my mind. I'm thinking 12 goals is definitely a thrashing, but 8 goals isn't.... so 10 goals would be about right.

What if you expected and were expected to win by say 10 goals, and you lose by 7 goals? Would you consider that a thrashing?

Nah I wouldn't TBH. Because I don't see a 7 goal margin as a thrashing..
So by your theory of a 17 goal expected turn around, if Port were expected to win by 14 goals but lost by 3 goals, is that also a thrashing?
