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)
[edit] Todo
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)
one thing that needs to be cleaned up is the references to Brisbane and Fitzroy. in one table Brisbane Lions and Fitzroy are coupled together, where as the Brisbane Bears are seperate, another has all 3 seperate, and a third puts the Brisbane Bears and Lions together yet has Fitzroy seperate. there needs to be consistancy with all 3 tables.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:VFLLogo.png
Image:VFLLogo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
