About

Magnet Board Daily is the daily footy trivia game from the maker of Magnet Board, the footy coaching game.

What it is

Eight questions a day about Australian football since 1990, the same eight for everyone. Each has many right answers, and the answer fewer people would give scores more. It is free, it needs no account, and it runs in a browser on a phone or a laptop. It is made by one footy fan, for himself and his mates.

Is it official?

No. Magnet Board Daily is an unofficial fan game. It is not made, endorsed or licensed by the AFL, the AFL Players' Association or any club. It shows no league or club logo and no photographs: names, numbers and club colours only. The ground, the crowd and the kicker are drawn for this game, and the kicker wears Magnet Board's red, not a club's jumper.

Where the facts come from

The seasons from 1990 to 2026 (who played for which club, numbers, games, goals, Brownlow votes and the ladders) were built from AFL Tables. The national drafts and the rolls of premiers and of Brownlow, Coleman, Norm Smith and Rising Star winners were read from lists on Wikipedia, whose text is offered under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 licence. The game takes the facts from these sources and none of their wording.

Thank you to the people who keep those records. How well known an answer is, and so whether it is a goal or a behind, is the game's own judgement: no source named here has checked or endorsed it, or the game.

If an answer is wrong or missing, tell us: [email protected].
