I saw it reported that in the GF there were a total of 91 ball-ups and throw-ins.
Perhaps this didn't include centre bounces, i.e. 91 was the 'stoppage count'?

Yes, probably correct.
Which would add 29 to the 91, for a total of 120.
Which means my question now is, does this mean that a "hit-out" stat is recorded for almost every ball-up/throw-in, no matter how ineffectual?
In 2012 84.7% of stoppage restarts led to a hitout.
21.4% of stoppage restarts led to a hitout to advantage - 25.3% of hitouts
12.0% of stoppage restarts led to a hitout sharked (to the opposition's advantage) - 14.2% of hitouts

Paul's site has this:- http://stats.rleague.com/afl/teams/allteams/seasons.htmlHey guys, what's the average score for each season dating back to 1897?
Cheers.

It gives year by year average score for both h & a and for finals. I don't think the "overall" figure for each year is to be found there, but if you wish I can certainly post that.
Jim Cullen made his (VFL) debut in Round 1 1899, playing for Essendon. Just a few weeks later he played his first (and only) game for South Melbourne. My question is, has there been any other player who played for a second club in the same year that he made his competition debut?
Great work, Ron. Thank you very much indeed. I really was expecting a much smaller list. The idea of a player changing clubs so soon after making a debut seems strange to me, but obviously going back to the earlier days of the competition it did happen every now and then.Full list:
Apologies if this has been asked before, but does anybody know which player has the least effective career statistically?
There are quite a few players whose career lasted just one AFL/VFL game, but are there any whose solitary game failed to gather a statistic, had just one handball or worse still, gained no posessions but conceded one or more free kicks?
These players registered zero disposals in their only game. Couple of intriguing ones - Andy Demetriou, and the appropriately named Barry Ough (well I'm pronouncing it 'O', anyway).

Richmond have taken Knights (Adel), Edwards (NM), Chaplin (Port), Petterd (Melb), Lonergan (Ess) and Stephenson (Geel).
When was the last time a club recruited as many as 6 players, from other clubs, in one off-season ?
I know Carlton did it in 02/03, under Pagan, but that was very unusual circumstances.
Can anyone tell me who it was that took part in 9 draws in his VFL/AFL career?
Wondering if someone can answer this, also where is the best place to run a query like this?
Cheers!
Can you tell me how many players managed to get 3721 kicks, 1111 handballs, 437 tackles, 234 free kicks, 298 goals and 278 behinds please?
