When the Sydney Swans were called South Melbourne their nickname was the Bloods.

Weren't South Melbourne also the Swans from the 1930's onwards because of their heavy recruiting of Western Australians? Blackmissionary 09:58, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Add VFA premiers from when it was the top-level competition.

What do the **'s next to certain games mean?

The VFL/AFL has never counted pre-VFL VFA premierships towards club tallies. Blackmissionary 09:58, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I've got a few things to suggest for this list (and I haven't bothered to do them because I don't believe in extensive menial labour prior to reaching a consensus). Please comment on whether they'd be good. - Combining the "Year" and "Details for the season" columns into a "Season" column, since the pages for the year aren't generally relevant to the AFL/VFL. This is consistent with what's done on featured lists similar to this one (English football champions and Swedish football champions). - Adding a minor premiers column. - Turn the Trivia into Notes linked from various seasons, seeing as Trivia sections seem to be frowned upon at Wikipedia.

I'd also like to enquire as to whether the images as used here are really fair use. I tend to stay away from images because I've got all the artistic talent of a koala on Vegemite, but I do recall reading that fair use images are supposed to be accompanied by a relevant description (or something). Would be good if someone more knowledgeable in this area could clear this up. Omdal 16:03, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
