League membership and affiliations

[edit]

Prior to the 2013 season, Essendon ended its ten-year reserves affiliation with the Bendigo Football Club. Essendon began fielding its own reserves team in the VFL, and Bendigo continued to contest the VFL as a stand-alone senior team.[2]

Foxtel Cup

[edit]

The top two non-AFL clubs from the 2012 VFL season – Port Melbourne and Werribee – competed in the 2013 Foxtel Cup. Werribee progressed the further of the two teams, losing its semi-final against WAFL club East Fremantle.
