This set contains full home and away team ratings and scoring cards for all 12 teams that competed in this season (Victoria League).

 

Note that this season had quarter lengths of 25 instead of 20 minutes, so that should be used for full play games; we've decided to use the men's quick play chart unaltered at this stage (as at release).

 

The top four teams finished within a win of each other with North Melbourne claiming their third minor premiership, with Hawthorn coming in second for the second time of what would be three in a row.

 

And the minor premiers would be eliminated in two matches - first losing the major semi-final with Hawthorn by a wide 40 points, then losing the second chance at the Grand Final with a walloping 86 point loss to Essendon, as the club made their first big game in 15 years.

 

It was as wide a margin in the decider though in the opposite direction. Hawthorn led from the start, leading by 47 points by half-time and a massive 83 point full-time margin gave them their fifth overall premiership, and first in five years. The two clubs would meet in the following two Grand Finals too - with Essendon getting their revenge on both occasions.
