[Australia] Data Issues

[Spacks]

I feel like Kyle Rowles' attributes have been underrated.

 

So has Kalifa Cissé' CD positional rating seeing how he is leading the League in Alex Tobin points.

When you get Wellington Phoenix as a affiliate club, it says it will grow your clubs presence in Australia, despite the fact that Wellington Phoenix are located in New Zealand.

They are a NZ based club yes but play in the A-League which is an Australian League and thus the Nix are treated like an Australian team. Though I'd like that ruddy flag changed to NZ

I do like the idea that there's a major benefit to gaining Kobehavn supporters in New Zealand though, haha.

• Eric Bautheac (Brisbane Roar) -  salary is listed as £37.5k p/w
• Actual figure is likely to be about a quarter of that amount, given the manner that he left Lille + Brisbane's financial problems in recent years. Wouldn't be able to provide an exact figure but it would be max $20k p/w I'd imagine.
• Brisbane paid out $4.6 million on total player wages last season, so it's impossible we spent around $3.5 million on Bautheac (https://www.brisbaneroar.com.au/news/report-brisbane-roar-fc-managing-director-update)

Seems like Bautheac hasn't been set as marquee in the DB as he was promoted to same this season: https://www.news.com.au/sport/football/brisbane-roars-marquee-man-eric-bautheac-ready-to-take-game-to-next-level/news-story/c15f69b6dd332228532d9b8eb9f76eb7

[Butlee]

If Bautheac hasn't been promoted, has Holman been taken off Marquee?

Roar only have 1 Marquee this season.

Thanks, Bautheac has been set as being on a Marquee contract because he is being classified that way by Brisbane this season, the wage that is being generated by the game is way too high currently, I have suggested a much more reasonable figure so hopefully this will be able to be fixed up asap, there are a couple of other players that this issue is affecting so have made suggestions for them too

[NG39]

In FM18 Michael McEvoy (15002351) was 33 years old. Now he is 19 in the database. Judging by his player history (first data point in 2005) he should be listed as 34 years old.

Am I right in assuming that Raul Baena, Ben Halloran, Ronnie Vargas, Andy Keogh, and Honda are the other ones you've suggested changes to? Glad to see your'e on top of it 

I've just started a new A-League game, fingers crossed i can get through October 2018 without the usual mass player-contract-terminations happening across the rest of the league. After all the good work you've done, i'm feeling pretty hopeful it won't.

Another one in a similar vein, Ben Griffin who starts at Pine Hills FC.  Starts as a 16 year old, is 32 in real life.

Since 2017 the training ground has been at 'Martin Luckle Park' -  2017 the Phoenix moved to Martin Luckie Park which had been redeveloped with two full-sized sand-based pitches. Funding for the redevelopment came from the Phoenix as well as $550,000 given by Wellington City Council  - https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/football/a-league/88716286/no-potholes-no-bumps-wellington-phoenix-boots-finally-touch-the-green-grass-of-home

 This still has NOT been updated!  The training ground still shows at Newtown Park this should have been fixed!!

GK Coach Paul Gothard https://www.wellingtonphoenix.com/news/wellington-phoenix-appoint-goalkeeping-coach

Still NOT listed as Wellington Phoenix GK coach! 

 

Also - Paul Temple is unemployed in the editor/game and is the Wellington Phoenix Academy Director/U20 manager

 

Wellington Phoenix reserves DO NOT have any League matches scheduled either.

Not only is Eric's contract way too high, he also needs a new accountant, no one in this country pays 90% tax on their income.

These two are most likely due to the researcher not inputting a date of birth for the player so the game randomly generates it

Bauthéac, Keogh and Vargas wages are under review as these wages are being generated by code and are quite clearly very wrong. We're working on a fix for these.

Baena is a similar issue, as the wage is blank in the db, but in this case just needs to be set in the db rather than a code change. Halloran and Honda wages are set in the db, so a different cause but also under review.

Did Brett Holman [Brisbane Roar] get put back into a regular salary position, not a marquee?

Quote

Previously one of the Roar’s two marquee players, Holman’s wages will now be paid from within the salary cap, freeing up a marquee spot in Brisbane’s squad.

 

The Courier Mail is the local paper and the author - Marco M - gets pretty good access from the club with this kind of info. So long as you're getting his facts from the paper/publication and not his twitter page, you'd bank on him being right. 

That does leave Brisbane Roar a free Marquee spot - and that's a fairly significant thing that would change their fortunes in-game I should imagine.

(In real life they chose not to fill their 2nd Marquee position this season).

[Butlee]

I notice Matt Simon at Central Coast Mariners is both captain and defaults to the Youth Team at the club when you start.

That may be because of the assessment of his skill, but to be honest he was signed to be their captain and he's only 32... he should be in the seniors!

Ryan Scriggins (15081561) needs his full name looked at.

I’d like to put my hand up to be a researcher if there is anything available

Can I get a clarification on what is wrong with his name?

In the db he is listed as Rhyan Scriggins. This matches the name on SportsTG, which is linked to the official FFA registration database. 

[mine]

I do wish someone would take firm charge on research for this almost forgotten continent. A-League is OK, but the lower leagues is a mess. Biggest concern I think the huge lack of correct birthdates on several players. Not easy to find I know since the best DB to search on who playes wre, SportsTG, don't post any birthdates or even positions. The websites on most clubs are very basic too and looks to be deleted of all squadside info in the off season. This takes a huge work to get up to standard. Best of luck to whoever gets this in order. It's about time.

 

 

[SweetDee69]

This is the biggest effort yet and the most accurate for years.

Nathan Duck (15080134) has signed for Robina City for the 2019 season

Quinn McDonald (15020153) is no longer at Byron Bay FC (left at end of 2017 season) last I heard he has taken a break off football and is travelling. 

[Timma]

You might know about this one already but Marko Radovanovic no longer plays for Souths United as he moved to England last summer.

He started the season with Buckland Athletic before moving to Cirencester Town around 23/11/2018 but has left them (not sure when).
