The 2013 Australian Football League season was the 117th season of the elite Australian rules football competition and the 24th under the name 'Australian Football League', having switched from 'Victorian Football League' after 1989.[1]

The season opened on 22 March, with {{AFL Ade}} hosting {{AFL Ess}},[2] and concluded on 28 September with {{AFL Haw}} defeating {{AFL Fre}} in the AFL Grand Final. It was Hawthorn's eleventh VFL/AFL premiership, and Fremantle's first grand final appearance.

The season was marred by a series of off-field controversies, with three clubs penalised in 2013 for separate infractions which had taken place over previous years: {{AFL Ess}}, following an investigation into irregularities in the club's supplements program; {{AFL Ade}}, after illegal payments and draft tampering charges relating to Kurt Tippett's 2009 contract extension; and {{AFL Mel}}, after an investigation into allegations that the club had intentionally lost matches towards the end of the 2009 season.

Premiership season

The full fixture was released on Wednesday 31 October 2012.

  • For the second consecutive year, the AFL's opening round was spread across two weekends.[6]
  • Due to concern over one-sided matches, each of the top four teams from 2012 ({{AFL Syd}}, {{AFL Haw}}, {{AFL Ade}} and {{AFL Col}}) played each of the bottom four teams (the {{AFL WB}}, {{AFL Mel}}, {{AFL GC}} and {{AFL GWS}}) only once each – except that Sydney played local rival Greater Western Sydney twice, and that the {{AFL WB}} played {{AFL Ade}} twice.[7]
  • None of the bottom five teams from 2012 ({{AFL WB}}, {{AFL PA}}, {{AFL Mel}}, {{AFL GC}} and {{AFL GWS}}) featured in a Friday night match during the home-and-away season.[8][9] This is due to the AFL's policy of awarding Friday night matches only to teams that perform consistently throughout the season.
  • This season was the last in which AFL football was played at AAMI Stadium, with both {{AFL Ade}} and {{AFL Por}} moving to a redeveloped Adelaide Oval from the 2014 season.[10][11]
  • Match starting times are local.

Notable events and controversies

Adelaide Crows–Kurt Tippett contract scandal

During the trade period leading up to the 2013 season, Adelaide Crows forward Kurt Tippett sought to be traded. During trade negotiations, information was uncovered which brought into question the legality under AFL rules of Tippett's 2009 contract extension with Adelaide. The AFL investigated Tippett's contract during October and November, and charged Tippett and Adelaide with a total of eleven charges relating to draft tampering and breaching the total player payments, including:[90]

  • Arranging a secret deal in which Tippett would be traded to a club of his choice at the end of 2012
  • Direct payments of $100,000 outside the salary cap in each of 2011 and 2012
  • Illegally arranging third-party deals in 2011 and 2012, resulting in Tippett receiving further money outside the salary cap in those years.

Adelaide was considered likely to incur a loss of draft picks, among other penalties, if found guilty, but the AFL Commission was yet to complete its hearing into the matter when the National Draft was held on 22 November 2012, so the club was permitted to participate in the draft as normal. However, on the day before the draft, the club voluntarily relinquished its highest two remaining selections (No. 20 and 54) as a "gesture of goodwill" ahead of the hearing.[89]

The final hearing took place on 30 November, and Adelaide and Tippett pleaded guilty to all charges. Adelaide was stripped of its first and second round draft picks, and banned from taking any father-son selections, in the 2013 National Draft, and received a $300,000 fine. Tippett was suspended for the 2013 NAB Cup and 11 premiership matches, with a further suspended sentence of 11 matches, and received a $50,000 fine. Several senior Adelaide personnel were also punished by the league: chief executive Steven Trigg and former football manager John Reid were each fined $50,000 and banned from AFL functions for six months (with a further suspended sentence of six months), and current football manager Phil Harper was banned from AFL functions for two months with a four-month suspended sentence.[90] In a separate hearing in January 2013, the AFL Players' Association revoked the accreditation of Tippett's manager, Peter Blucher, for at least one year.[91]

Melbourne Football Club tanking scandal

{{main|Melbourne Football Club tanking scandal}}

Throughout the 2012/13 offseason, the league investigated the Melbourne Football Club over allegations that it had tanked during the latter part of the 2009 season – that is, that it had intentionally lost matches near the end of the season so that it would finish with no more than four wins, and therefore receive a priority draft pick. The league released its findings in February 2013, and found the club not guilty of tanking.[92][93]

However, it did find two of Melbourne's then-senior staff members – senior coach Dean Bailey and general manager of football operations Chris Connolly – guilty of "acting in a manner prejudicial to the interests of the competition". This related most specifically to a meeting in July 2009, which became known colloquially as "the vault", in which Connolly allegedly openly discussed the potential benefits to the club of tanking.[94] The guilty parties received the following penalties:

  • Connolly, who was still at the club in 2013 but serving in a role outside the football department, was suspended outright from serving in any position at any club until 1 February 2014. Connolly was sacked by Melbourne in October 2013.[95]
  • Bailey, serving in 2013 as an assistant coach at the Adelaide Crows, was suspended from his position for the first sixteen weeks of the 2013 season, preventing him from having any contact with the Crows' playing group during that time.
  • The Melbourne Football Club, which was complicit to the infraction in its capacity as Connolly's and Bailey's employer, was fined $500,000.

None of Melbourne, Connolly or Bailey contested these penalties.[96]

Essendon Football Club supplements controversy

{{main|Essendon Football Club supplements controversy}}

On 5 February the Essendon Football Club asked the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) to investigate the concerns over the clubs possible use of un-approved supplements during the 2012 season.[97]

An internal independent review conducted by Dr. Ziggy Switkowski regarding the Essendon Football Club governance processes was released to the public on May 6.[98]

While ASADA investigated the legality of the supplements, the AFL separately investigated the administration of the club's supplements program, and charged the club and senior staff with bringing the game into disrepute. The charges focussed on the poor business practices within the program, including allowing "a culture of frequent, uninformed and unregulated use of the injection of supplements" at the club, incomplete record keeping which had made it impossible to determine with certainty whether or not players had been administered banned supplements, and for failing to guarantee the health and safety of its players in its program. On 27 August, five days before round 23 and after two days of discussions between the club and the league, the following penalties were imposed relating to these charges:

  • Essendon was fined $2 million (staggered over three years); this was the largest fine imposed on a club in the history of Australian sport.
  • Essendon was ruled ineligible to participate in the 2013 AFL finals series, achieved by relegating it to ninth position on the ladder.
  • Essendon was stripped of draft picks in the following two drafts: in 2013, its first and second round draft picks were stripped; in 2014, it was stripped of the first and second round draft picks it would have received based on its finishing position, but was granted the last draft pick in the first round.
  • Senior coach James Hird was suspended from any involvement in any football club for twelve months, effective immediately.
  • Football operations manager Danny Corcoran was suspended from involvement in any football club for four months, with a further two-month suspended sentence, effective 1 October 2013.
  • Senior assistant coach Mark Thompson was fined $30,000.
  • Club doctor Bruce Reid will contest his charge at a hearing from the AFL Commission, scheduled for Thursday 29 August, 10:30pm EST.[99]

The scandal was investigated over the following years, and ended with 34 players who were on the 2012 Essendon list being suspended for the entire 2016 AFL season as part of a partially offset two-year suspensions for using thymosin beta-4 during the scandal.

Adam Goodes–Eddie McGuire racism controversy

Late in the final quarter of the round 9 match between {{AFL Col}} and {{AFL Syd}}, Adam Goodes became the target of racial abuse in which a 13-year-old Collingwood supporter called him an "ape".[100][101] Goodes pointed the supporter out to security following the incident, who subsequently evicted her from the ground; after the match, Collingwood president Eddie McGuire visited the Swans' rooms to apologise "on behalf of football", and stamped out that racism would not be tolerated by the Collingwood Football Club.[102][103]

Five days later, McGuire was involved in another controversy involving Goodes on his Triple M Melbourne breakfast show, when he joked that Goodes could be used to promote the King Kong musical that was to be held in Melbourne, quickly apologising on air after making the reference.[104][105] McGuire initially defended his comments by saying that the remark was simply "a slip of the tongue", but admitted to vilifying Goodes in an interview later in the day, albeit unintentionally.[106][107]
