define the phrase "compiled by".

C'mon JW - that's not even relevant. It refers to the individual player statistics, not the comments, hence:

"All the individual player statistics from the eight-point loss have been compiled by Collingwood Media and can be viewed below. All stats are courtesy of Champion Data."

If you want to run interference on the point, at least do so credibly.

The Club has, until recently, always attributed comments from the coaching staff to a specific member of the staff. It was happening earlier this season but seems to have stopped a few weeks ago. Since then, the comments look more like "spin" than genuine comments (exhibit "A" is the Seedsman comment quoted in my previous post).
