The 2019 Australian Football League season was the 123rd season of the elite Australian rules football competition and the 30th under the name 'Australian Football League', having switched from 'Victorian Football League' after 1989. There are 18 teams competing in the league, the same as the previous seven seasons. The first game was played on Thursday, 21 March, and the season concluded with the 2019 AFL Grand Final on Saturday, 28 September. Richmond defeated Greater Western Sydney by 89 points in the grand final, marking their twelfth premiership.

Rule changes

The AFL Commission approved several alterations to the rules of the game, to come into effect for the 2019 season:[1]

  • Traditional playing positions mandated at centre bounces (i.e. after goals have been scored)
    • Teams must have six players inside both 50m arcs, with one player inside the goalsquare.
    • Four midfield players must start inside the centre square with the two wingmen stationed along the wing.
  • At kick-ins, a player will no longer need to kick to himself to play on from the goalsquare.
  • Following a behind, the man on the mark will be brought out to 10m from the top of the goalsquare, rather than the existing five metres, due to the play on rule from kick-ins.
  • When defenders mark or receive a free kick within nine metres of their own goal, the man on the mark will be brought in line with the top of the goalsquare.
  • Team runners may only enter the playing surface after a goal has been kicked and must exit before play restarts.
  • Water carriers are not permitted to enter the playing surface during live play.
  • Players will be prohibited from setting up behind the umpire at centre bounces.
  • With respect to 50 metre penalties, the player with the ball:
    • Must be allowed to advance the mark by 50m without the infringing player delaying the game and;
    • Will be able to play on while the 50m penalty is being measured out.
  • With respect to kicks after the siren, a player in this situation:
    • Will be able to kick across their body using a snap or check-side however;
    • They must kick the ball directly in line with the man on the mark and the goal.
  • The 'hands in the back' rule interpretation has been repealed so a player can now:
    • Place his hands on the back of his opponent to protect his position in a marking contest, provided he does not push his opponent in the back.
  • A ruckman who takes direct possession of the ball from a bounce, throw-up or boundary throw-in will no longer be regarded as having had prior opportunity.
  • Where there is uncertainty over who is the designated ruckman, the ruckman for each team will still be required to nominate to the field umpire.

Pre-season

AFLX

Main article: 2019 AFLX tournament

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 respectively; 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]

JLT Community Series
