Good summary. I've never delved too much into fantasy footy type stuff and I know it needs to be taken with a large grain of salt, but Campbell $509 and Cordy $311? That's way too far out of whack.

True, but if you compare Cordy with say Dylan Grimes from Richmond ($328,000) starting price then it makes more sense.
There are lots of factors that effect a players rating from year to year. Rucks like Campbell get points for their hit outs
which can throw the results, tacklers get four points a tackle which makes guys like Devon Smith and even Josh Dunkley
attractive fantasy options.

Fantasy footy rewards stats. So defensive players, taggers, role players etc. don't score well.
 
If you picked real teams based on Fantasy Football you'd get smashed.
Defenders get shortchanged. Stat-padders (yes, with a hyphen) get over-rewarded.
Come on dog-watch you love the hyphen, no one is picking teams based on fantasy football, but a separated list based on $100,000
dollar incremates is interesting if you look at all the teams. Beats the A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, usual ratings. It's all part of the bigger
picture.

Yeah, mildly interesting ... but don't try reading anything into it. Fantasy is an apt title.
When Roberts is worth more than Morris and Roughead is nearly twice Moz's value you know you're not in the real world.
 
Can anyone help me out? I've been passed a few prelim final tickets and I don't actually want them. What's the best/safest way to go about selling them? Is there an official transfer site or should I just use gumtree/PayPal?

You need a duffel coat and a tam hat, then the buyer will come to you. Some nice knock off Rolex might also interest the discerning customer, with knock off perfume as a respectable alternative however.

You are most welcome.

Hahahaha. Very helpful. Side note - if anyone wants a couple of prelim tickets for $30 a piece, hit me up.

Any correlation between wins and age? Or between wins/losses and our avge age vs the opposition's avge age? Do you have games played (experience) coming into each round? (Hint: you could find these in match preview, game day or post mortem threads for many of the rounds this year.)

Mostly I found it was less of the age demographic and more of who played well scenario. There was also a massive balance versus age
demographic battle that raged through the whole season when we got it wrong we stank. Our Round 1 team had one of the best age
demographics yet suffered one of if not the biggest losses of the year the balance however was putrid tall to small. I don't post the
good stuff dog-watch, but it is good.

Who has the highest winning ratio (per games played)?
 
Would surely have to be Lin Jong with a 7-3 winning record, which included a 6 game winning streak to finish the season.

Strange contrast to 2016 where Bulldogs teams that did not include Lin Jong went 10-0.
Jong rarely makes the first page of google, do you want the player rankings in the wins ?

Jackson Macrae:
Round 3: 3rd
Round 6: 1st
Round 7: 1st
Round 8: 1st
Round 15: DNP
Round 20: 2nd
Round 21: 3rd
Round 22: 3rd

Just a tease.
