This section of the site could not have been completed in such detail and with such a high degree of accuracy (although I fight shy of claiming 100%) without the expert assistance of the following:

Ross Smith	Ross Smith is a Tasmanian football historian who is undertaking a broad range of invaluable research into the recorded history of the code in that state. By meticulously scouring primary source material, Ross is both uncovering little known or long forgotten information, and detecting apparent errors in published secondary sources such as Pinchin's A Century Of Tasmanian Football and Stoward's Football in Tasmania - not to mention this very website, which draws heavily on such sources for much of its statistical data. Ross has generously provided details of his research to *Full Points Footy* for inclusion in various parts of the site, and in particular this section.

Max Sayer	South Australian Max Sayer is the author of Champions of Australia (2003), a significant and highly recommended contribution to a sadly neglected area of the game's history. Among the by-products of Max's research for that book were comprehensive details of interstate club matches played since the formalisation of the code in 1877, and Max has been kind enough to allow those details to be reproduced on *Full Points Footy*.

James Hothersall	Based in Adelaide, Englishman James Hothersall has a particular interest in the statistical underpinning of our code, and has researched various aspects of the game, Australia-wide, from its origins until the present day. He has had material published both on *Full Points Footy*, and on Footystats. He is currently engaged in examining primary source material relating to the early history of Australian football in Adelaide, and some of his findings are reproduced here.

Dave Eastman	A self-professed "hoarder and 'footyhead'", Dave has been collecting football-related memorabilia, particularly copies of the V/AFL's 'Football Record', for more than a quarter of a century. He has a website devoted to this passion at http://www.footballrecords.freeservers.com/. Dave has compiled numerous football statistics over the years and has generously made many of them available to *Full Points Footy*.
