    All things re *Paul*'s afltables.com

    The way I create the site won't be usable by anyone else, so a seamless transition to another maintainer isn't likely. To have more or less the same thing, it would have to redone from scratch. When the final siren does eventually sound, I intend to put up all the raw data I possibly can, so at...

    All things re *Paul*'s afltables.com

    Thanks to all. I've been conspicuous by my absence, unfortunately this appears to be how it's going to be in future. Still planning to do the regular season updates. But as for additions and other minutiae, the motivation after 25 years has basically gone.

    Crawford Final 8 System

    Here's the system described that was used in the ARL in 1995, dated 28-Sep-1994. Crawford petitioned the AFL on 9-Sep-1994. Considerably narrows the circumstances required to validate his claims.

    News ‘Would be unreal’: AFL to consult clubs over addition of ‘wildcard round’ to finals

    2x top 5's was how the 20-team NRL comp worked in 1998. Canterbury made the gf from 9th, a farce was avoided when they were walloped by Brisbane.

    why aren't Fitzroy's premierships considered part of Brisbane Lions history?

    From a statistical POV, there's three options: 1> Call the BL the BB, thereby ignoring any Fitzroy involvement. 2> Mash the FL and BB histories together somehow, completely unviable. 3> Deem the new arrangement as a new team, representing both clubs. 3 seemed to be the path of least resistance...

    The AFL is on the edge of not coming back

    What on earth are you talking about? Shoulder charges were legal, tackling in mid-air was fine, if you fell into a tackle and copped it high it was play on. There was no such thing as chicken wings, head slams, crushers, cannonballs, hip drops and probably plus some I can't even remember. All...

    Beating every other team in the same year

    It's happened a few times, St Kilda in 2009 was the 140th. Less common now with the "uneven" draw, only four in the 2000s, West Coast the last in 2015.

    Opinion Time to change the finals structure

    Fastest goal on debut

    I have Hill at 46 seconds, the only faster in my records is Melbourne's Mitch Brown (debuting for Geelong) at 36 seconds. I only have data back to 2001.

    Quadruple double?

    Over 200 examples if you count hitouts, so not very special. Grundy had done it before, Gary Dempsey did it 15 times.

    Alas I have not kept up with all these changes, and sadly I can't see that changing any time soon. Anyway, a reader has pointed out Nick Bloom appears to have played in the StK-Foo game of r8 1952, but doesn't appear in my records. So presumably somebody is on the list who didn't play...

    Stats resources.

    What worries me is that they will publish ongoing stats in some obtuse fashion, and it will become a huge pain in the bum to get them.

    The total is wrong, should be 11. I have some better data for some early 30s Medals, which I'd started working on but haven't finished. I'd hadn't realised that that fiddling had mucked up the totals i.e. counted them twice.

    Stats questions

    Breen had a surplus of 48 at one time, beaten only by Roger Merrett, who was 89-38 at one point (51), ended up 151-158. Going the other way, Russell Greene was 41-92 (also 51), ended up 169-139. Jack Wrout was 6-46, ended up 92-88 (I've ignored draws) I might put a running tally in each...

    Resource List thread - Inaccuracy in official records

    Fixed that rd10 thing. It appears Gary Ablett sr kicked two goals, not one here: https://afltables.com/afl/stats/games/1982/101419820424.html with Richard Loveridge having to relinquish one of his 3. SO either the opposite happened at some other time to even it out, or Ablett moves to a new...

    Thanks, banner away if you like. This would be a good place for anyone to suggest "settled research" changes too. New tables possibly as well, although I've been pretty lethargic for a while, so no guarantees.

    Low content / random / off-topic + miscellaneous

    Agreed, I'd prefer most tries scored as second tiebreaker. Having said that though, it's a rugby league adage - defence wins premierships.

    With the hapless Eagles expectedly capitulating to the Broncos, one win separated 1st from 8th.
