Is there anyone out there who also collects SANFL annual reports? I have a vast collection but have duplicates to trade - OR are you willing to sell any?
I use the annual reports to help compile a private database often used by the sanfl. Eventually I intend to market this...
This database has 8989 players who have played 1 SANFL game from 1907 - Rd 5, 2006
I am in the process of typing 1897-1900. I have just finished researching these years using 7 newspapers to cross check stats and some annual reports I have collected for this period.
My database includes dates of birth, death, heights, wieight, relatives, previous clubs, occupations, war service, education, burial sites.... and MUCH more including photographs. I have every 1/4 by 1/4 result and every field umpire with middle names.
Furthermore, I am in the process of re-allocating league games to different comps. The AFL does not recognise the escort cup, foundation cup, electriclight comps, coca cola cup, advertiser cup.... preseason games as official league games. Hence I am removing these from Home&Away/Finals SANFL League games and putting them in OTHER SANFL competition games.... Therefore you will still bet the same amount of overall games but they will be under re-classified in line with WAFL and AFL stats.
