Notes

edit
  • Adelaide became the first club since the introduction of the final five in 1972 to win the premiership from outside the top four, despite losing their first final heavily against Melbourne.
  • Sydney's 101-point loss to St Kilda in round 10 is the most recent occasion as of 2023 that the club has lost a premiership match by 100 points or more.[1] Of the 18 active clubs in the AFL, the Swans have currently gone the longest without a triple-figure margin loss.[2]
