The 2019 AFL season was the 123rd season of the Australian Football League (AFL), the highest level senior men's Australian rules football competition in Australia, which was known as the Victorian Football League until 1989. The season featured eighteen clubs, ran from 21 March until 28 September, and comprised a 22-game home-and-away season followed by a finals series featuring the top eight clubs.
Starting positions were mandated at centre bounces, with each team required to have six players inside each 50m arc – including one in each goal square – four players in the centre square and two along the wings. A team guilty of the 6-6-6 rule, as it became known, received one warning per game, then conceded a free kick on subsequent infractions.
At kick-ins after behinds, the full back was no longer required to kick to himself to play on from the goal square, and the man on the mark was positioned 10m from the kick-off line instead of 5m.
The spot of any mark or free kick received within nine metres of a player's defensive goal line would be brought back to the nine-metre line, rather than remaining at the spot of the mark or free kick.
Team runners were no longer permitted to enter the playing surface except for the break in play after a goal had been kicked; water carriers were also forbidden from entering during live play.
The protocol for a 50-metre penalty was amended, allowing the player with the ball to advance to the new mark at his own pace without being interfered with by an opponent (which could be penalised by a second 50-metre penalty), and with the right to play on at any time while the 50m penalty was being measured out. Previously, measuring out a 50m penalty was done with time off.
The push-in-the-back rule was relaxed, allowing a player to place his hands on the back of his opponent to protect his position in a marking contest, provided he does not push. This removed the more stringent interpretation added in 2007 which saw a free kick to penalised any use of hands on an opponent's back in a marking contest.
The concept of prior opportunity as it applied to holding the ball was formally defined for the first time as part of a copyedit of the rule. The only change to the intent of the rule was that a ruckman who takes direct possession of the ball in a ruck contest was no longer considered to have had prior opportunity – removing a provision which had existed since 2003.
The AFL confirmed in December 2018 that the modified version of the sport, known as AFLX, would return in the 2019 pre-season.[2] Unlike the 2018 competition, no AFL clubs took part in the event, with four all-star teams being picked by four high-profile players: Patrick Dangerfield (captain of the Bolts), Eddie Betts (Deadlys), Nat Fyfe (Flyers) and Jack Riewoldt (Rampage).[2] The tournament occurred at Marvel Stadium, Melbourne on 22 February 2019 and was won by the Rampage.[3]
The pre-season series of games returned as the 2019 JLT Community Series, with teams playing two games each. The games were stand-alone, with no overall winner of the series. Each team played two games, many at suburban or regional venues, while all games were televised on Fox Footy.
Fremantle collected a team record of 40 clearances in its 82-point win over North Melbourne, it was also Fremantle's biggest win against North Melbourne.[citation needed]
Despite a swathe of rule changes designed to increase scoring, it was the lowest average scoring opening round since 1965.[8]
Collingwood took 99 marks in the 1st half against Richmond which broke the VFL/AFL record for most marks in a half by a team. The Magpies ended up with 174 marks for the game which is 5th most marks in a game in VFL/AFL history.[9]
Fremantle's performance against West Coast set numerous records and milestones; it was Fremantle's lowest score in a Western Derby,[18] heaviest losing margin in a Western Derby since round 6, 2000, and was the least accurate final score by any team since Carlton's score of 1.10 (16) in round 11, 1991.[19]
The crowd of 55,593 for the Carlton vs. Melbourne match is the highest attendance for a match between the two sides outside of either a final or a game played on a public holiday.[citation needed]
North Melbourne's final score of 1.8 (14) was the lowest score in the club’s 94 year history, the lowest score recorded by any team since round 15, 2009, the lowest score by any team at GMHBA Stadium and was also the lowest score conceded by Geelong since round 12, 1965.[23]
The crowd of 76,995 for the Richmond vs. Brisbane Lions match is the highest attendance for a match between the two sides, breaking the previous record of 46,961 set in round 20, 2013, and also the largest crowd ever between a non-Victorian and a Victorian side during the home and away season.[24]
This was only the second grand final in league history which did not feature either of the top two teams of the home-and-away season. This last occurred in 1980 when Richmond defeated Collingwood.
This is the eighth consecutive year where at least one non-Victorian club has qualified for the grand final. The previous longest streak is seven, set in 2001–2007.
Greater Western Sydney's score of 3.7 (25) was the lowest score in the club's history and the lowest by any team in an AFL grand final since Collingwood's 2.2 (14) in 1960.
Offered to step down as part of a strategic review at the club and decided to leave immediately following continued poor on-field performances in 2019.[78]
