Lake Oval
Night Grand Finals
Night competition 1956-1971
In 1956 the VFL introduced a post-season competition for the teams that did not make the final four. The matches were played in a knockout competition format, under lights, at the Lake Oval, South Melb. The competition ran until 1971 when the following years introduction of the final five made it impractical. Matches counted towards an umpire’s (and player’s) career match total.
From 1965 the competition attracted companies who sponsored it: Golden Fleece (1965-69), Radiant (1970), Heinz (1971).

VFL Park
Night competition 1977-1993
The VFL Night Series recommenced in 1977 and since then has evolved from a competition played during the season, mainly on week nights, to a competition played in the pre-season, mainly on weekends and not necessarily at night!Initially involving only VFL clubs, over the seasons non-VFL clubs took part and, with the inception of the AFL competition, it was limited to those AFL teams.
Variously called the Amoco/Herald Australian Football Championships (1977-78), Escort Championships (1979-82), Sterling Cup (1983-84), CUB Cup (1985-86), Channel Seven Cup (1986) National-Panasonic Cup (1987-88) Panasonic Cup (1989), Fosters Cup (1990-94), Ansett Australia Cup (1995-2001), the Wizard Home Loans Cup (2002-2005) and, most recently, The NAB Cup and NAB Challenge (2006-2014). Matches have counted towards an umpire’s VFL match total only in the years 1977-1979 but do count for field umpires towards AFL 200 Club and AFL Life Membership.

Stadium at Docklands
Pre-season 1994-2013
During the period from 1994 umpiring crew configurations changed regularly as experiments were trialled in the pre-season cup.The third field umpire was added in 1993 and was so successful that it was immediately incorporated into the season proper. The following year a third boundary umpire was added. The boundary umpires would interchange at each break. 2003 saw the introduction of a fourth field umpire who rotated off the bench. That year boundary umpires began interchanging mid-quarter to spread the load more evenly.
A change in the laws governing bringing the ball back into play following a behind led to an increase in goal umpires from two to four in 2003 – two at each end.
Recent seasons have seen four boundary umpires on the ground at once to cater for speedier throw-ins and 2006 saw a reduction of goal umpires back to two in anticipation of a new kick-in law that would be used in the season proper – without additional goal umpires. Goal umpires did rotate quarter by quarter in an attempt to give each umpire as much exposure as possible to the new law prior to the premiership season, an appointment regime that has continued since.
In 2014 the pre-season, known as the NAB Challenge, reverted to a series of practice matches with no grand final.

ANZAC Day
The first VFL matches played on the 25 April occurred in 1914 exactly 12 months prior to The First Division storming ashore at Gallipoli:
- Geelong drew with Essendon
- Fitzroy defeated Melbourne
- Collingwood drew with Carlton
- South Melbourne defeated University
- St.Kilda defeated Richmond
From 1915-1960 Victorian legislation prohibited the playing of sport on ANZAC day. Only in 1953 and 1959 did 25 April fall on a Saturday within the football season thus requiring a gap in the fixture. By a change in the legislation in 1960 new terms permitted the playing of sport on ANZAC day after 2.00PM. The first matches played were:
- Fitzroy (19.17) defeated Carlton (19.10) at Brunswick Street
- St.Kilda (5.18) were defeated by Melbourne (10.12) at Junction Oval.
These matches had been part of 1960 Round 2, which was scheduled to be played on April 23 but had to be postponed because of heavy rain the previous two days.
Between 1960 and 2025 there have been 136 Anzac day matches for premiership points.
Since 1995 Essendon and Collingwood have played an annual match whose focus is commemorating Australian serviceman and ANZAC Day. The fixture has become a highlight of the season and a prestige appointment for umpires
See ANZAC Day clash in Wikipedia for more information.

International Rules
The first official International Rules Series was played in 1984 in Ireland, though Gaelic contests involving Australian teams date back to 1967. They were the brainchild of former VFL Grand Final umpire, entrepreneur and media man Harry Beitzel.
Gaelic games were played in Ireland against county and national sides in 1967, 1968 and 1978, with Australia winning all three series.
Official International Rules Series games, involving a combination of Australian Football and Gaelic rules, began in 1984 and continued in 1986, 1987 and 1990.
After an eight-year break, an annual series between Australia and Ireland was established in 1998 after a new agreement was struck between the AFL and the Gaelic Athletic Association.
However, after the 2006 series in Ireland, the GAA suspended the International Rules Series. The GAA and the AFL, after further discussions in early 2008, resumed the series in 2008.
The series was deferred in 2009 but resumed with a two-test series in Ireland in October, 2010, followed by Ireland’s tour of Australia in 2011. An all-star indigenous team toured Ireland in 2013 before the Aussies hosted Ireland in front of a sell-out Perth crowd in 2014.
