The 1934 VFL season was the 38th season of the Victorian Football League (VFL), the highest level senior Australian rules football competition in Victoria. The season featured twelve clubs, ran from 5 May until 13 October, and comprised an 18-game home-and-away season followed by a finals series featuring the top four clubs.
The premiership was won by the Richmond Football Club for the fourth time, after it defeated Шаблон:AFL SM by 39 points in the 1934 VFL Grand Final. South Melbourne full-forward Bob Pratt kicked 150 goals for the season, setting the all-time record which has since been matched only by Peter Hudson (Шаблон:AFL Haw) in 1971.
Background
In 1934, the VFL competition consisted of twelve teams of 18 on-the-field players each, plus one substitute player, known as the 19th man. A player could be substituted for any reason; however, once substituted, a player could not return to the field of play under any circumstances.
Teams played each other in a home-and-away season of 18 rounds; matches 12 to 18 were the "home-and-way reverse" of matches 1 to 7.
Once the 18 round home-and-away season had finished, the 1934 VFL Premiers were determined by the specific format and conventions of the Page–McIntyre system.

Grand final
Season notes
- Bob Pratt kicked 150 goals in the 1934 season, reaching his hundredth in only 13 matches. The feat smashed Gordon Coventry's record of 124 goals in the 1929 season, and has yet to be broken.
- Gordon Coventry's second goal of the Round 5 game between Шаблон:AFL Col and Шаблон:AFL Gee was his 1000th career goal, making him the first player to reach that milestone.
- In the interstate match on 11 August, the regular South Melbourne centre half-back Laurie Nash played at full-forward for Victoria for three-quarters (the selected full-forward Bill Mohr had broken his finger in the first quarter) and kicked 18 goals in a single match against South Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Nash had kicked two goals from centre half-forward in the first quarter prior to Mohr's injury, then kicked two more in the second quarter, before dominating the match after half-time with another 14 goals.
- In Round 8, Fitzroy ruckman Colin Benham scored his famous "in-off the small boy" goal.
- In the third quarter of the 14 July (round 10 match) between Carlton and Collingwood,[2] played at Victoria Park in a heavy cross-wind, Syd Coventry, playing in his 222nd match in his last season for Collingwood,[3] was knocked out after an altercation with Carlton's Gordon Mackie.
- As Coventry was being stretchered off the field, a vicious brawl broke out involving 20 players – requiring the assistance of team officials and the police to break it up – in which up to ten players were seriously injured.[4]
- Three Carlton players were reported: Gordon Mackie was charged with striking Syd Coventry, Harry Maskell was charged with striking Norm Le Brun, and the Carlton captain, Maurie Johnson, was charged with kicking Jack Ross.[5]
- Many of those who had attended the match were astonished that no Collingwood players had been reported for their violent behaviour during the match.[6][7]
- The VFL tribunal found both Maskell and Mackie guilty, and suspended each for six matches. The hearing against Mackie was postponed for a week so that Coventry could attend.[8][9]
- The charge against Johnson was not sustained (although the tribunal was satisfied Johnson had kicked Ross, it was not satisfied that he had kicked Ross deliberately).[10]
- Although the field umpire, Bob Scott, was fortunate to escape sanction for his widely attested incompetence, one of the goal umpires, Percy Jory, and both of the boundary umpires, John Campbell and George Calleson, were suspended for the remainder of the season for their dereliction of duty in relation to the brawl.[11]
- It is a matter of record that Dick Reynolds won the 1934 Brownlow Medal from Haydn Bunton, Sr by a single vote. Legend has it that Bunton, who had dominated in the last match of the season, tried to "suck up to" field umpire Jack McMurray as he walked off the playing field, and that Murray, sensing a blatant and improper attempt to influence his Brownlow voting, cast his votes for three other players.
Awards
- The 1934 VFL Premiership team was Richmond.
- The VFL's leading goalkicker was Bob Pratt of South Melbourne with 138 goals (150 after finals)
- The winner of the 1934 Brownlow Medal was 19 years old Dick Reynolds of Essendon with 19 votes in his second VFL season.
- North Melbourne took the "wooden spoon" in 1934.
- The seconds premiership was won by Шаблон:AFL Mel for the fourth consecutive season. Melbourne 15.18 (108) defeated Шаблон:AFL Gee 12.4 (76) in the Grand Final, played as a curtain-raiser to the firsts Grand Final on 13 October at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.[12]
