Understand AFL betting with data

Home-win %, favourite-win % and over-the-total % by season.
Favourites win ~70% of AFL games and home favourites even more β but totals and line markets sit near 50/50, i.e. closing lines are efficient. The measurable edge is the market-move signal below.
β‘ Spread splitter β half-time & 2nd-half line
A handy rule: halve the full-game spread to estimate the half-time and second-half handicap (each half is roughly half the game). Average game spread in this dataset: β points.

Green = favourite won / over the total hit. Odds are closing prices. Completed rounds only.
Bounce & letdown β how teams do the game AFTER facing each opponent
All-time. Low win % = a "letdown" spot; high = a "bounce". Also over % and line-cover % of that next game.
