The 1975 Victorian Football Association season was the 94th season of the top division of the Australian rules football competition, and the 15th season of second division competition. The Division 1 premiership was won by the Geelong West Football Club, after it defeated Dandenong in the Grand Final on 21 September by 28 points; it was the first and only Division 1 premiership won by Geelong West in its time in the Association. The Division 2 premiership was won by Brunswick; it was Brunswick's first premiership in either division since 1938.

The Division 1 home-and-away season was played over 18 rounds; the top four then contested the finals under the Page–McIntyre system. The finals were played at the St Kilda Cricket Ground.

Notable events

Interleague matches

For the first time since 1968, and the first time since its expulsion from the Australian National Football Council, the Association played an interleague representative match.[8] The match was played in Wangaratta against the Ovens and Murray Football League. The match was played during the lean half of a split-round in the Association fixture, and selection in the team was controversially limited to players from the twelve clubs which were idle that weekend – which automatically excluded 40% of Association players from eligibility. Colin Hobbs (Coburg) captained the team.

  • Camberwell opened the season with thirteen consecutive victories, but failed to win another home-and-away match season and fell to second on the ladder.[12] It fared little better in the finals, barely holding on for a three-point preliminary final win after leading by 40 points during the final quarter,[7] but losing its other two finals comfortably.
