Popular AFL Betting Markets

The AFL offers one of the deepest betting menus in Australian sport, with markets covering matches, players, margins, awards, and season-long outcomes.

From head-to-head and line betting to Brownlow futures and Same Game Multis, punters can bet on every part of the AFL season, from Round 1 to Grand Final day.

Head-to-Head


Pick which team will win the match outright. It's the simplest AFL betting market and a good starting point when comparing the two sides.

Line Betting


The favourite gives up a points handicap, allowing you to back them to cover the line or the underdog to stay within it.

Total Points


Bet on whether the combined score of both teams will finish over or under the total set by the bookmaker.

Player Markets


Player betting includes goalscorers, disposal totals and other individual performance markets. These markets can vary considerably between bookmakers and matches.

Same Game Multis


Combine multiple selections from the same match into one bet, such as a team result, player goals and disposal targets. The team creates an AFL Multi for each week of competition.

AFL Future Betting

AFL futures let you bet on outcomes decided later in the season, with markets available before Round 1 and throughout the year.

AFL Premiership


Back the team you think will win the AFL Grand Final. Premiership odds move throughout the season as form, injuries and the ladder change.

Brownlow Medal


Bet on who will win the AFL's best and fairest award. Check our Brownlow Medal betting tips and latest odds for current contenders and analysis.

Coleman Medal


Back the player you think will kick the most goals during the home-and-away season.

Rising Star


Bet on the AFL's leading eligible young player, with the market developing as contenders emerge throughout the season.

AFL History

The AFL, also known as the Australian Football League, has a fascinating history that traces back to its roots in the 19th century. It originated from the Victorian Football League (VFL), which was established in 1896 and comprised teams from the state of Victoria. Over the years, the VFL expanded its reach and evolved into a national competition, encompassing teams from various states across Australia. In 1990, the league underwent a significant transformation, adopting the name Australian Football League (AFL) to reflect its nationwide status. 

The AFL has since become the premier professional competition for Australian rules football, captivating fans with its rich traditions, fierce rivalries, and remarkable athletes. It has solidified its position as a beloved and integral part of Australian culture, serving as the heart and soul of the nation's sporting landscape.
