AFL Data Analysis Project

AFL (or 'footy', as I will call it from here on in) is the most beautiful game ever played or created. It is also one of the harder sports to analyse from a purely statistical perspective. This project is my attempt at being able to stare into the chaotic abyss that is footy, and have the truth stare back at me.

Sections

• What makes footy unpredictable
• Can I build out a statistical model to predict the winner of a game?
  • Part 1: Simple regression analysis (More detailed analysis with python code)
  • Part 2: Player profiling (More detailed analysis with python code)
  • Part 3: Home ground advantage & the weather
  • Part 4: Bringing it all together
• Can I predict the Brownlow winner?
