Preface: total newbie for getting data from web Recall a few years ago doing some scraping of www.afl.com.au for injury rates to help brother with PhD research on hamstring injuries. My recollection is the website made this hard or it may been prohibited by T&Cs - in any case, we abandoned it. Do they offer a 'proper' API now? (again, might be abusing terminology here through naiveté)

I'm keen on this project too. My sport of choice is basketball. http://wnbl.com.au/stats/?WHurl=%2Fstatistics%2Fteam%3F
