Notes

1. Sunshine withdrew during the 1989 season, and their games were expunged from the records. ^[2]
2. Brunswick-Broadmeadows withdrew during the 1991 season, and their games were expunged from the records. ^[14]
3. A snap COVID-19 lockdown affecting south-eastern Queensland was announced on the morning of the VFL match between Gold Coast reserves and Southport, leading to the match being abandoned for no result after ten minutes of play. ^{[16] [17]}
4. VFA/VFL records list Sid Hall as playing 200 games for Preston; however, 55 of these were for Northcote after the clubs amalgamated (with the merged entity considered a continuation of the Northcote Football Club). ^[20]
