Perhaps someone can answer this for me, but CD do this in real time (no replays), and so it seems to me that each game must be scored by the one person in the moment or there will be conflicts to be sorted out and resolved..Technology will help but a lot of it will still fall back to an individual's training, judgement and competence on the day. So there will inevitably be differences of opinion coming into the ranking because it involves humans. The speed with which they finalise the scores means there is no chance for review or correcting mistakes.
Finally, it seems to me useful to remember that CD is not only part of the AFL behemoth but ultimately depend on a group of people possibly part-time employees every game day that are paid to be professional and accurate in what they do. If there is favouritism it is probably due to the methodology rather than anyone in CD having preferences.
Disclaimer: I have nothing at all to do with CD and if you review my posts you may see a few rants at the scoring in there!
. There is a guy at work who does game day work for the AFL and he is reluctant to discuss exactly what he does which makes me wonder if he is employed by CD. He does it as a second job to pay off his house. I'll grill him further when I next see him.
Just my thoughts on the matter.

This is a bar _________

This is Phil raising the bar ----------
For those who haven't seen how CD call the live match play, this is a clip from a few years ago. I suspect it's probably changed somewhat over the years though but gives you an idea of how it all works.

This is a good one too that's from last year. They have a team of people collecting stats.

One thing I've always been curious about is when a player is under duress and kicks the ball directly to the opposition or out on the full. Is this counted as a clanger or an ineffective kick? Similarly, when a player kicks the ball down the line to a teammate, and through no fault of the kicker, his teammate is outmuscled/falls over himself/trips, and the opposition marks or gathers the ball, is this too counted as a clanger?
I'm not sure.
The one I've been wondering about is when a player takes a mark in the goal square and has a gimme shot directly in front, no distance, totally shanks the kick missing the goal but still scores a point. Is it an ineffective kick, or is it an effective kick because it actually registers a score for his team?

I actually think this is a clanger. Can't remember where I read it but for shots directly in front, 15m out or closer, under no pressure, if the player misses what would be a "gimme" goal then its counted as a clanger. Someone can correct me if I am wrong! Same applies for dropped marks under no pressure.
