4061: 3456: 3148: 1844: 957: 3718: 2245: 2420: 1089: 860: 30: 1288: 1277: 500: 3919: 4114: 2987: 2053: 3200: 4361: 2733: 1495: 4675:: a handball that is deliberately handballed to the ground and bounced to a teammate, usually to pass under an opposition player. Similar to a 'bounce pass' in basketball, but much harder to execute due to the shape of the ball, and the fact that the ball has to be hit rather than thrown to the ground. It is therefore quite rare and usually only done by highly skilled players. 2998:: the defensive player who stands where an opponent took a mark or received a free kick. When the opponent takes the kick, the player on the mark typically leaps vertically with their arms held straight in the air in an attempt to block the kick. For this reason, the opponent is often forced to take the kick from several metres further back to ensure the kick is not blocked. 3729:: a club official whose job is to run onto the ground to give the players messages from the coach during play. Runners were traditionally able to enter the field of play at any time. While this remains the case in most senior football, since 2019, runners in the AFL have only been able to enter the field after a goal has been kicked and must exit before play restarts. 1627: 4048:, usually executed under pressure from an unlikely scoring position. It is almost invariably a kick across the body (i.e., for a right footer, a kick aimed to far left) and typically exaggerates the natural tendency of the ball to drift slightly right to left from a right footer, and left to right from the left footer. It is, in this way, the reverse of a 362:: a 1963 play about a fictional Australian rules football team, the Crows, and their star recruit Achilles Jones. It was also filmed and broadcast as a telemovie in 1963, and adapted into a mini-series in 1974. The play remained popular throughout the later part of the twentieth century. The title was a common term used by commentators in that era. 1235:: (i) to finish a game with both teams having an equal score. In this situation, both teams are awarded two premiership points rather than the four awarded for a win. Drawn matches can no longer occur in finals, with the game to be played out in continuous periods of extra time until a winner is crowned. Prior to 1991, finals matches were instead 3195:: an indication of the ratio of points scored for versus points scored against. The AFL uses the formula (points for / points against) × 100, meaning that percentages may exceed 100%; the SANFL uses the formula (points for / points for and against) × 100. It is used as a tiebreaker for ladder positions if teams are on equal premiership points. 1724:: to position oneself in front of the middle of a flying pack of players as the ball often spills from the pack to this position. Applied in particular to players near goal that can generate an immediate shot on goal. Best executed with a well-timed run so that the player gathers the ball at speed, making them less likely to be tackled. 1048:: an elite, exclusive supporter group at a club, coterie members usually buy very expensive memberships, individually sponsor players, and may make other financial or in-kind payments to a club. In return, they are rewarded with benefits such as personal meetings with players, addresses by coaching staff, and premium match-day seating. 368:: the geometric angle formed by an imaginary line between a player taking a set shot and the centre of the goals (on the goal line), and another imaginary line perpendicular to the goal line. So, a player with "no angle" is taking a kick from directly in front; a player on a "wide angle" is taking a shot from near a boundary line. 2881:: a generally accepted observation that a team with a significant majority of crowd support, generally a home team, will tend to gain more favourable treatment from the umpires due to the crowd response, i.e., the noise generated by the crowd affirms umpiring decisions that favour the home side or go against the away side. 3699:: a playing style which favours collecting the ball and running with it rather than looking for an immediate disposal. A 'run-and-carry player' is a player who favours this style by default. Teams may also adopt run-and-carry as a favoured game style depending on their personal, or as a tactic against certain opposition. 2368:: colloquial, usually disparaging, term for an easy goal scored by a player who has played little part in generating the score. Most commonly, this is an uncontested player in the goal square who is delivered a handball or short pass and simply has to turn and kick the goal from very close range while under no pressure. 3792:: to place pressure on an opposition team by scoring and opening up a significant lead. Often used in the pejorative, i.e., a team may dominate play but fail to put 'scoreboard pressure' on their opposition by failing to score well or through inaccuracy, thus wasting their dominance and making a comeback more likely. 3253:: an indicative part of the ground, equivalent to the area proscribed by an imaginary arc running from the goal post to a point on the boundary line halfway to the fifty-metre arc. There are two pockets at each end of the ground, referred to as the left and right, forward and back pockets, e.g. left-forward pocket. 851:: a ball delivered forward by any means without necessarily directing it towards another player on that team, often with the intention of it hitting the ground and bouncing around chaotically, favouring small agile players and making it hard for opponents to cleanly defend. A tactic most successfully employed by 3593:: a player not generally regarded as a star, but who is given a specific role to fulfil for the team, which may not involve getting many possessions. This usually leads to them being undervalued externally, but they may be highly valued internally. Reliable role players are usually vital for high-level success. 352:: a player who has been chosen in the best team of the AFL competition each year, the All-Australian team; or, prior to the nationalisation of the competition or in lower age groups where the game is not nationalised, the best composite team from all states based on performances at an interstate carnival. 2766:: a clean catch of the ball after it has been kicked by another player (either by a teammate or by the opposition), before it has touched the ground, or been touched by any other player, and after it has travelled a minimum of 15 metres. The term also refers to the spot on the ground where the mark or 3054:, but 'open' usually refers to specific individuals, while 'out' refers to multiple players, e.g., 'the Bulls are out all over the place at the moment'. Also used when a team have been trapped in defence, but finally manage to get the ball to some open players downfield, e.g., 'the Bulls are out now'. 254:

team. When a team that was affiliated with an AFL team played against a team which was not affiliated with an AFL team, the affiliated team must have played at least 12 VFL-listed players and no more than 10 AFL-listed players. The 12–10 rule did not apply when two AFL-affiliated teams were playing

1173:: a player who is given the ball by another player who has a set shot for goal, so that the receiving player may have a shot on the run for a long-distance goal. Typically done when the designated kicker is known to have a better likelihood of scoring the goal than the player taking the set shot. 1986:: a kick completed under high pressure, particularly coming out of defence, where the player makes no attempt to deliver the ball to a teammate, but is simply trying to clear it from the immediate area. Can also refer to, in more general terms, any kick that is completed in an unskillful manner. 747:

for the season. This is based on accumulated votes awarded by the field umpires at the conclusion of each home and away match during the season. Lower level competitions typically also award a best and fairest award which will have their own name, but which are often colloquially referred to as

771:: a call of support for one's team, traditionally used with a short version of the team's name, e.g., "Carn the Roos!". Often further abbreviated to carna, e.g., "Carna Tiges". While once very common, this term has lost popularity over the years. Most likely an abbreviation of 'come on'. 4829:: any of three individual areas on a football field: the defensive zone is located within the 50-metre arc closest to the opposition's goals, the midfield zone is between the two 50-metre arcs, and the forward zone refers to the area within the 50-metre arc closest to that team's goals. 3247:: the call made by an umpire whenever a player who is taking a mark or a free kick runs or handpasses rather than kicking over the mark; or, the call made by an umpire to alert players that a mark or free kick will not be paid, when they may be expecting that one would be paid. 3138:: when the attacking team manages to outnumber the defending team, so that as the player with the ball draws an opponent to try to stop them that frees up the next player to receive the ball uncontested, and so on, allowing quick and effective movement of the ball forward. 1348:: common colloquial term for demoting a player from the team for a later game due to poor form or errors. Comes from the notion of dropping from a higher team to a lower team, such as from firsts to seconds. Commonly used in the past tense, "He's been dropped". See also 322:: usually derogatory slang term for the sport in general, specifically used to refer to a game in which teams exchange long-distance kicks, like table tennis players batting the ball back-and-forth. Most often used in a negative way by fans of the more ground-based 3171:: a tactic which involved clearing all attacking players from the attacking 50 metres and kicking the ball into the resulting open space. This gave key forwards room to run into, often running with the flight of the ball toward goal. Named after, and employed by, 3906:: a block placed on an opposing player. This can be to stop them tackling the blocking player's teammate in possession of the ball, or attempting to gather it; to stop them intercepting a ball heading for goal; or just to stop them possessing the ball themselves. 3505:

by cutting existing players, recruiting players from other clubs, and drafting and developing new players. It often also involves changes in coaching staff and even administration staff. Teams being rebuilt often spend a number of years towards the bottom of the

2846:: a tactic sometimes employed by teams of using a number of small, quick, agile players, particularly in the forward line to try to win ground balls and score with a lot of running shots and snaps. Usually used when the team lacks sufficient key marking forwards. 2323:: a player whose key role is to play in defence and intercept opposition attacks. This is usually a strong-marking player, who is expected to take 'intercept marks'. In the modern game, this role is often created by playing a loose, seventh player in defence. 2858:

term, in Australian rules football, it is most commonly applied when a strong team has a bad game, meaning that a single poor performance is not to be regarded as indicative of the general abilities of the team. May be applied to a good player in the same

1330:: a kick that is executed in such a way that the foot contacts the ball at the same time as, or immediately after, it has been dropped to the ground on its end. No longer in common use in Australian rules football due to its perceived inaccuracy. See 1546:: colloquial term for a player that is highly valuable to a team, but typically not applied to the star players. The expression indicates that the selectors would automatically pick this player each game, rather than literally picking them first. 313:: umpiring decision in which play is allowed to continue after an infringement if the team with the ball is infringed upon and earns a free kick, but would more benefit by play continuing rather than having play stopped to take the free kick. 1649:

waved by a team's cheer squad or fans after a goal is scored. These are traditionally hung over the fence behind the goals. They are now often smaller than in the past as they obscure the fence-line advertising and are a potential hazard to

1342:: a kick that is executed by contacting the ball on its end, so that it rotates around its midpoint end over end. Usually considered the most accurate of kicks, and is by far the most commonly used kicking style in Australian rules football. 4030:: a method of tackling where the opponent is spun around and thrown heavily to the ground, particularly if they are unable to use their arms to help protect themselves in the fall. It has now been outlawed due to the risk of concussion. 2118:: to get out on the field of play, particularly of a player that has been on the bench for a long period of time. Can also refer to a player who has not been in the team getting selected, e.g., "Smith can have a run this week". Also 657:: a long high kick, particularly into the forward line, that hopes to score a goal or find a teammate rather than being specifically directed at them. As a verb, it means to perform such a kick, e.g., 'bombing to the goal square'. 416:: a kicking style that has gained increasing popularity since the 2000s where the player kicks the ball across their body in a hooking style rather than using a traditional drop punt, in particular when taking a set shot on goal. 4518:: time added onto the end of each quarter to compensate for time lost during general play by stoppages. The amount of time to be added on is determined by independent time-keepers who stop the game clock when indicated by the 3759:: the concession of a behind for the opposition team. A behind which is deemed to have been deliberately rushed by a player under no pressure is penalised by a free kick, but in all other circumstances it concedes one point. 1706:: common parlance for winning a game. The "four points" refers to the number of premiership points awarded for a win in an AFL game and in many other leagues. "To get the two points" would be the South Australian equivalent. 3076:: to wait down behind a flying pack of players and collect a ball that has spilled behind them, in particular when done by an attacking player near goals which may allow the player 'out the back' a fairly easy shot on goal. 1940:: a kick that rolls and tumbles along the ground rather than through the air. In current usage, a grubber is typically regarded as resulting from a skill error, while an intentional grubber-style kick is typically termed a 4687:, but also used more generally as a cry of encouragement. In 1979, it was turned into a promotional song that has remained popular ever since, including being a mainstay of pregame entertainment at the AFL Grand Final. 3217:: when applied to the ball it is collecting a loose ball off the ground; when applied to a player it is assigning a player a role to stick with an opposition player, especially one that is having an impact on the game. 1803:: a very muddy playing field, so called because the muddy area can become very sticky to run through, and the ball can stick in the mud rather than bouncing or rolling through.

Regarded as the type of kick with the longest distance, but the lowest chance of being accurate. 4149:: an imaginary line running between the goals at either end of the ground. Often used to refer to the key positions down the ground, i.e., full-back, centre-half-back, centre, centre-half-forward, and full-forward. 1398:: a team that wins multiple premierships over a short period of time, especially multiple premierships in a row. The minimum requirement for a dynasty is typically three premierships in around three to five years. 845:: a forty-five-metre diamond drawn around the centre of the ground with the pointy ends facing each goal, it served the same purpose as the centre square from 1973–1974 before being replaced by the square in 1975. 2297:: the act of running or passing the ball inside the 50-metre arc. A statistic that is used to evaluate the effectiveness of midfield players who may not score many goals themselves, but set them up for teammates. 1215:: to move the ball forward without a change in direction, usually referring to a long kick adjacent to the boundary line to a waiting pack of players. Generally performed when no better option is available. cf. 3363:: a fan of the game, in particular a regular member of the general public. While in general Australian parlance a punter is a person that gambles, in Australian football terms this does not have to be the case. 2706:: leaving a player out of the team for a reason other than poor form or injury, such as due to a returning senior player or for a rest. However, it is also sometimes used as a politically correct way of saying 1137:: a free kick awarded against a player who is perceived to have deliberately sent the ball out of bounds. After stricter enforcement led to increasing controversy, in 2021 this rule was altered to refer to 3586:
