    I'm tempted to write down all 18 teams.

    Actually it would be GWS. Cause you aren't counting any of the rookies as they haven't played a game yet.

    I'd also wager this.

    GWS.

    Cornes 239

    Brogan 174

    Power 282

    Palmer 53

    Junior 251

    Setanta 80

    Ward 60

    Scully 31

    Reid 10

    Davis 18

    Average 119.8 games.

    Bingo.

    That said, assuming all 10 of those play against Sydney, along with 12 kids, the average after that game then drops to 55.45. And drops further as more kids play (and the uncontracted players don't)

    GWS is right. Sorry I have been offline for a few hours.

    A good example of how stats can lie! STriker is the man. Well done

    good example of statistical anomaly

    you have 4 essential washups worth 1000 odd games between them. This is not typical of any other list.

    And it will change pretty much as soon as round 1 is over. because you will be dividing it by 23 obvisouly.

    And by the time Junior suffers from general soft tissue soreness and takes 8 weeks to get over it, that will really reduce the average.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
