The 2010 AFL season was the 114th season of the Australian Football League (AFL), the highest level senior Australian rules football competition in Australia, which was known as the Victorian Football League until 1989. The season featured sixteen clubs, ran from 25 March until 2 October, and comprised a 22-game home-and-away season followed by a finals series featuring the top eight clubs.
The draw for the 2010 AFL Premiership Season was produced by the AFL with the intention of producing a balanced draw while also providing the fans and television networks with blockbuster games. In a competition with 16 teams and 22 rounds, it is not possible for all teams to play each other twice. These factors combine to create some of the following anomalies:[1]
Six teams played each other for the first time in round 21;
Of the Victorian-based teams St Kilda played six games interstate while Essendon travelled only three times;
Of the six games Fremantle played in Melbourne, none were at the MCG, while defending premiers Geelong played seven games at the MCG despite not being one of the tenants at this ground;
Geelong started their title defence against Essendon. This was a departure from the previous three seasons, when the two teams that had contested the grand final played each other in round 1.
Fremantle won its first match in Victoria since round 4, 2007,[2] breaking a streak of sixteen consecutive losses in the state.[3]
This was the first of ten consecutive Easter Monday public holiday clashes between Geelong and Hawthorn. They were due to play again in 2020 before the season was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For the first time since 1989, West Coast lost its first three games of the year.
Richmond won the final quarter of its game against Sydney, ending a streak of nineteen consecutive quarters lost, dating back to round 21, 2009. This was the longest streak of quarters lost since St Kilda lost twenty-two in a row in 1897.
The combined total of 95 points scored in the match between St Kilda and Western Bulldogs was the lowest aggregate score ever in a game at Etihad Stadium.
Richmond broke a 14-game losing streak with a 47-point victory over Port Adelaide in horrendous weather. In the game, Richmond laid a record 142 tackles, and Port Adelaide's score of 3.12 (30) set a new record as its lowest ever in the AFL.
Round 13 was a split round, played over two weeks to give each club one week's break at roughly midseason.
In its first rematch since the 2009 AFL Grand Final, St Kilda and Geelong set a new record crowd for a home and away game between the two clubs (58,208).
Geelong was held goalless in the second half against St Kilda, the first time since 2001 that the club had been goalless in a half of football.
The game between Geelong and St Kilda was notable for the spiteful clashes between Geelong forward Steve Johnson and St Kilda tagger Steven Baker; Johnson was twice cited for striking Baker, and was suspended for three weeks, while Baker was cited three times for striking Johnson and once for misconduct (deliberately punching Johnson in his broken hand), and was suspended for nine weeks.[6][7]
Collingwood's home game against St Kilda set a new record home and away crowd for a match featuring St Kilda, with an attendance of 81,386.
Mark LeCras (West Coast) kicked a personal best and ground record of 12.2 (74) in his club's win over Essendon at Etihad Stadium. The haul of 12 goals was the highest kicked by a player in a game since Scott Cummings, who kicked 14 goals in round 4, 2000.[9]
Fremantle played at Aurora Stadium for the first time since the siren controversy of 2006. Fremantle, having already qualified for a place in the finals, chose to rest seven of its regular senior players for the game, playing inexperienced youngsters in their place; as a result, the team suffered the worst loss of any team during 2010, going down by 116 points.[11] By winning, Hawthorn clinched its own finals berth. Hawthorn's score and winning margin were each the highest ever for an AFL game played at Aurora Stadium, until the highest score was eclipsed in round 10, 2012, when Hawthorn scored 27.12 (174) against North Melbourne.
In a first for the league, the final round of the season was given a floating schedule, with the AFL to allocate the timeslots for the games six weeks out from the end of the season, in order to reduce the likelihood of a team playing the first week of the finals after a Sunday game in round 22.[12] The schedule was announced on 12 July 2010.[13] The floating schedule for the final round became a standard feature in future years.
Collingwood lost its first match since round 10, ending an 11-match unbeaten streak.
Geelong and St Kilda played each other in a finals match for the third consecutive year, in the second qualifying final. A potential go-ahead goal by Cameron Ling with one minute remaining was disallowed because Cameron Mooney pushed James Gwilt in the back during the tackle which set up the shot on goal; although controversial, the AFL later endorsed the decision.[14]
This was the second time that these two teams met each other in a Grand Final. The first was the 1966 Grand Final, the year of St Kilda's first and only premiership, which they won by just one point.
St Kilda made consecutive appearances in the Grand Final for the first time since 1965 and 1966.
Geelong missed the Grand Final for the first time since 2006.
The match was the third drawn Grand Final, and the first since 1977.
The AFL announced in the lead-up to the match that, should the replay have been drawn, it would have been decided in extra time, rather than by another replay.
The AFL Rising Star is awarded to the best player who, as of the beginning of the season, is under the age of 21 and has played fewer than 10 games. Each week one player is nominated and at the end of the season a selection panel votes to select the overall winner.
Sydney's Dan Hannebery won the award for 2010, with the maximum 45 votes awarded to him.[31]
Lance 'Buddy' Franklin won the award for his running goal against Essendon in round 13. By winning the award Franklin became the fifth indigenous player to win the award since 2004.[54]
Liam Jurrah, of the Melbourne Football Club, won the award for his mark over the top of Port Adelaide's Nick Salter, in round 21.[54] However, he hadn't been nominated as Mark of the Week, which was won by Brendon Goddard. This inconsistency arose because the Mark of the Week is decided by an online public vote, while the Mark of the Year is decided separately by a panel of experts.
No major changes to the rules were introduced for the 2010 season. Minor adjustments to the tribunal rules were made, including adding a provision to report players for diving or staging.[64] The 2010 NAB Cup pre-season competition trialled three new rules: allowing boundary umpires to award free kicks, letting the players, not the umpire, decide if they want to use the advantage rule and penalising players who push the ball under another player.[65]
