Ladder and fixture based on public reporting current as of 23 August 2026, after the home-and-away season concluded. The Wildcard Round is officially confirmed by the AFL: Western Bulldogs (8th) v Collingwood (9th), Fri 28 Aug, 7:40pm AEST, MCG; Melbourne (7th) v Carlton (10th), Sat 29 Aug, 7:35pm AEST, MCG. The two winners feed into the traditional top-8 "double chance" system for seeds 7 and 8. Grand Final: Saturday 26 September 2026, MCG (kickoff time not yet announced). Week 1–3 fixtures (qualifying, elimination, semi and preliminary finals) had not been officially dated at time of writing β€” the AFL typically confirms these progressively once wildcard and each week's results are known. This is an unofficial simulator for entertainment β€” always check afl.com.au/fixture for the official, up-to-date fixture.

Results sync automatically, roughly once a day, from official AFL sources β€” completed matches get locked in and marked "Final" (not editable), while anything still to be played is yours to pick and explore. Reopen this page to see the latest.
