With all the current talk about keeping posting stats and subsequent fines and penalties for clubs not reporting who has been posting each week in the match threads, I wondered if what was being recorded would provide any beneficial data for those keeping tabs on the "health of the league"
It's also made me question whether or not the measures used to diagnose said health is an accurate representation of actual health, or a measure that glosses over some of the more important symptoms required to properly assess the the actual state of this diverse ecosystem in favour of evaluating a few "key areas" to manufacture a desired outcome.
The correct answer is yes by the way.
Here's where it gets exciting everyone.
For the past 6 months I have created a "SUPER SPREADSHEET" which I will share in good time.
This "SUPER SPREADSHEET" has broken down some of the key measurables which provide a conclusive overview of the true health of the league, player by player, club by club.
I personally have reviewed thousands of posts from the past season and compiled them into the "SUPER SPREADSHEET" using some complicated mathematics and colour coding and over the next few months I will share some of my key findings as well as some much needed
recommendations for individual posters, club captains and the committee.
Today I will present three of the Key findings as a teaser of the journey I will take you on over the course of the season.

First of all I reviewed every post by every player from the previous season and rated each one by accuracy. Here are few examples of what I found.
The most accurate poster in the league is TheInjuryFactory coming in at %63.7. The least accurate poster in the league is Senor M with an accuracy rating of -%0.5
By comparison Kennedy Parker rated at %34.6 and manangatang rated at %22.2
The most accurate member of the committee only scored %42.5
By club the Las Vegas Bears were the least accurate posting team rating at %0.3333 accuracy, while the Roys were the most accurate posting team rating at %56.77
