Notes:
- Teams ranked by Proportional Points. Minimum of 18 games required to qualify for the Premiership.
- Behinds were recorded but did not count towards the final score or in determining the result of matches.
- The percentage column is an indication only. Teams finishing with equal proportional points were deemed to have achieved an equal finishing position on the final ladder.
With Collingwood and South Melbourne equal on Proportional Points, a play-off for the premiership was required.
