Pretty sure they technically do it manually. Maybe checking with the official feed to verify. You could hack something together yourself to grab the data from the AFL website...but as far as the raw data goes, they're not going to make it easy for you.

Right, so you don't think they have a deal with champion data or anything like that? Fair enough, they probably do more weekly work than I expected then.

I doubt they have a deal with champion data.

They could have a custom setup to scrape the stats from the AFL website, not sure about the legalities of that...would be a grey area. Probably more likely than doing it all manually actually.

You just wanting it for personal use? Probably not worth it unless you're willing to spend lots of time on it. Could also look at this - http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showthread.php?t=183886 ...find someone who knows what they're doing and pay them to set it up for you.

Would be personal use but could turn into a helpful website for others. However I'm more inclined to teach myself than get it done for me. Thanks for your help!
