The AFL Premiership Finals series will commence on Friday, September 7, with three weeks of finals series games following 24 rounds of the home and away season. The top four teams on the AFL Ladder each receive a guranteed ‘second chance’ in the first week of the finals series, as well as being guaranteed to host a home final, therefore rewarding the sides who finish in the top four in the season proper.

The 2011 AFL Grand Final Live streaming winner will be presented with the AFL Premiership Cup, and will also receive the AFL Flag, to be unfurled at the winning team’s first home game the following season.

Currently, both Carlton and Essendon hold the record for the highest number of VFL/AFL Premierships, at 16 apiece.

As one of Australia’s largest sporting events, the AFL Grand Final live stream has been a ‘sell-out’ for over two decades, and is notorious as one of the most difficult events to obtain tickets, with only a small number of tickets available to the general public. The largest-ever crowd at an VFL/AFL Grand Final was 121,696 in 1970. The AFL Grand Final regularly draws television attendances in excess of 2.5 million viewers.
