==Notable events==
* On Thursday 8 February it was announced that the [[Seven Network]] (who had not broadcast AFL for five years) and Ten Network had reached an agreement to on-sell four games per round to pay-TV provider Foxtel.
* In [[#Round 6|Round 6]], {{AFL Gee}} scored 35.12 (222) against {{AFL Ric}}, the highest score kicked in an AFL game since quarters were shortened from twenty-five to twenty minutes in 1994 and the first time a team has scored over 200 points since [[1995 AFL season#Round 22|Round 22, 1995]]. Their winning margin of 157 points also broke the record for the same period, and they scored an all-time record 23 more goals than behinds, and an all-time record three-quarter time score of 29.9 (183). This was also Richmond's biggest loss in its 99-year VFL/AFL history.
* In [[#Round 8|Round 8]], {{AFL Haw}} and {{AFL StK}} were widely criticised for their game, which in perfect weather yielded only seven goals in the first three quarters (before opening up in the final quarter), and was described as boring by Essendon coach Kevin Sheedy.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph/story/0,22049,21777545-5006065,00.html|publisher=[[Sunday Telegraph]]|title=Sheedy condemns ugly footy|date=23 May 2007|accessdate=3 June 2007}}</ref>
* [[#Round 12 (Split Round)|Round 12]]'s game between {{AFL Car}} and {{AFL Haw}} attracted 53,459 fans, breaking the record for the highest AFL crowd at [[Telstra Dome]]. In the same game, Hawthorn kicked their highest ever score against Carlton: 27.18 (180), and also achieved their greatest winning margin against Carlton, 100 points.<ref name=HawBluRnd12>{{cite news|url=http://www.hawthornfc.com.au/Default.aspx?tabid=4742&newsId=45113|publisher=Official AFL Website of the Hawthorn Football Club |title=Hawks hammer hapless Blues|date=15 June 2007|accessdate=18 June 2007}}</ref>
* [[Robert Harvey (footballer)|Robert Harvey]] became just the 10th player in VFL/AFL history to reach 350 games, helping {{AFL StK}} defeat {{AFL WC}}. The win was the second time in 60 games that a Victorian team had beaten West Coast at Subiaco Oval.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,21960112-661,00.html|work=Herald Sun |title=Saints give Harvey great memory|date=24 June 2007|accessdate=24 June 2007}}</ref>

*On 24 August, the [[Seven Network]] broadcast some details obtained from players' confidential medical records on its nightly news program relating to the use of non-performance-enhancing drugs. It allegedly purchased these details for $3000 from a woman who found them in a gutter outside a medical clinic in Melbourne. The name of the club involved, Hawthorn, was revealed by Seven on air, but before the end of the news program (at which time Seven had promised to actually reveal the names of the players), the AFL obtained a court injunction from the [[Supreme Court of Victoria]] which prevented this – and which continues to suppress the publication of any part of the records, including the name of the club.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22326660-5013756,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier Mail]]|title=Police probe AFL drug-dealing allegations|date=29 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007 | first=Sam | last=Edmund}}</ref> Because anonymity was guaranteed under the AFL's "three-strikes" drugs policy, the AFL players responded by boycotting the Seven Network, refusing to answer any questions posed by its journalists, including in matches broadcast by the network.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/player-power-strikes-seven/story-e6frf33l-1111114291331|title=Player power strikes Seven|authors=Greg Denham and Andrew McGarry |work=The Australian|date=29 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> Shortly after the completion of Round 22, faced with the possibility of ongoing player boycotts – including of the [[Brownlow Medal]] count<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22320631-952,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier Mail]]|title=Players may boycott Brownlow Medal|date=28 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007 | first=Guy | last=Hand}}</ref> – the Seven Network issued a statement "regretting" any harm the broadcast may have caused to the AFL, the clubs and the players, and promised not to broadcast or reveal any of the details of the medical records in future.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/09/04/2024124.htm|publisher=[[ABC News (Australia)|ABC News]]|title=Seven apologises for AFL drugs story|date=4 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> The [[AFL Players Association]] took the "statement of regret" as an apology and the boycott was lifted.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/story/0,21598,22366508-5005401,00.html|publisher=[[Perth Now]]|title=Channel Seven backs down on AFL drugs yarn|date=5 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> The scandal came to be known as [[Drugs in the Australian Football League|"Guttergate"]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/showarticle.aspx?article=1bd7f83c-c8fc-4ffe-b84f-825c3e4f048d&viewmode=2&page=50|publisher=[[The Sunday Age]]|title=All Braun, no brain means Aka snubs Seven|date=2 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref>
* The final game of the home-and-away season became particularly controversial through circumstance. The two teams, {{AFL Mel}} and {{AFL Car}}, each had records of 4–17, and had no chance of winning the [[wooden spoon (award)|wooden spoon]], which had been won by Richmond (record of 3-18-1). Under [[priority draft pick]] rules, this meant that whichever team won the game would lose a potential priority draft pick (which would have been the first overall selection if Carlton had it, or pick No. 18 if Melbourne had it). Melbourne won by five goals in a game noted for a lack of defensive pressure, while many in the crowd openly supported their teams to defeat.
* The [[2007 AFL finals series|second semi-final]] between {{AFL WC}} and {{AFL Col}} went into [[extra time]] after scores were level at the end of regulation. This was only the second time that extra time has been used in an AFL game, and was also the second time that these teams had drawn in a final.
* {{AFL Gee}} set a new record for the highest winning margin in a Grand Final against {{AFL Por}}, [[2007 AFL Grand Final|winning by 119 points]].
==Notable events==
* On Thursday 8 February it was announced that the [[Seven Network]] (who had not broadcast AFL for five years) and Ten Network had reached an agreement to on-sell four games per round to pay-TV provider Foxtel.

==Notable events==
* On Thursday 8 February it was announced that the [[Seven Network]] (who had not broadcast AFL for five years) and Ten Network had reached an agreement to on-sell four games per round to pay-TV provider Foxtel.
* In [[#Round 6|Round 6]], {{AFL Gee}} scored 35.12 (222) against {{AFL Ric}}, the highest score kicked in an AFL game since quarters were shortened from twenty-five to twenty minutes in 1994 and the first time a team has scored over 200 points since [[1995 AFL season#Round 22|Round 22, 1995]]. Their winning margin of 157 points also broke the record for the same period, and they scored an all-time record 23 more goals than behinds, and an all-time record three-quarter time score of 29.9 (183). This was also Richmond's biggest loss in its 99-year VFL/AFL history.
* In [[#Round 8|Round 8]], {{AFL Haw}} and {{AFL StK}} were widely criticised for their game, which in perfect weather yielded only seven goals in the first three quarters (before opening up in the final quarter), and was described as boring by Essendon coach Kevin Sheedy.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph/story/0,22049,21777545-5006065,00.html|publisher=[[Sunday Telegraph]]|title=Sheedy condemns ugly footy|date=23 May 2007|accessdate=3 June 2007}}</ref>
* [[#Round 12 (Split Round)|Round 12]]'s game between {{AFL Car}} and {{AFL Haw}} attracted 53,459 fans, breaking the record for the highest AFL crowd at [[Telstra Dome]]. In the same game, Hawthorn kicked their highest ever score against Carlton: 27.18 (180), and also achieved their greatest winning margin against Carlton, 100 points.<ref name=HawBluRnd12>{{cite news|url=http://www.hawthornfc.com.au/Default.aspx?tabid=4742&newsId=45113|publisher=Official AFL Website of the Hawthorn Football Club |title=Hawks hammer hapless Blues|date=15 June 2007|accessdate=18 June 2007}}</ref>
* [[Robert Harvey (footballer)|Robert Harvey]] became just the 10th player in VFL/AFL history to reach 350 games, helping {{AFL StK}} defeat {{AFL WC}}. The win was the second time in 60 games that a Victorian team had beaten West Coast at Subiaco Oval.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,21960112-661,00.html|work=Herald Sun |title=Saints give Harvey great memory|date=24 June 2007|accessdate=24 June 2007}}</ref>
* The [[#Round 16|Round 16]] game between {{AFL BL}} against {{AFL Car}} at [[The Gabba]] saw [[Jonathan Brown (Australian footballer)|Jonathan Brown]] become the first {{AFL BL}} player to kick 10 goals in a match, kicking 10.1 for the game. This surpassed [[Daniel Bradshaw]]'s 9 goals in [[2005 AFL season#Round 14|2005]] v {{AFL Mel}} at The Gabba. After this match [[Denis Pagan]] was sacked as the coach of Carlton.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22114566-10389,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier-Mail]]|title=Brown leads Lions romp|date=28 September 2007|accessdate=3 June 2007 | first=Marco | last=Monteverde}}</ref>
*On 24 August, the [[Seven Network]] broadcast some details obtained from players' confidential medical records on its nightly news program relating to the use of non-performance-enhancing drugs. It allegedly purchased these details for $3000 from a woman who found them in a gutter outside a medical clinic in Melbourne. The name of the club involved, Hawthorn, was revealed by Seven on air, but before the end of the news program (at which time Seven had promised to actually reveal the names of the players), the AFL obtained a court injunction from the [[Supreme Court of Victoria]] which prevented this – and which continues to suppress the publication of any part of the records, including the name of the club.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22326660-5013756,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier Mail]]|title=Police probe AFL drug-dealing allegations|date=29 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007 | first=Sam | last=Edmund}}</ref> Because anonymity was guaranteed under the AFL's "three-strikes" drugs policy, the AFL players responded by boycotting the Seven Network, refusing to answer any questions posed by its journalists, including in matches broadcast by the network.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/player-power-strikes-seven/story-e6frf33l-1111114291331|title=Player power strikes Seven|authors=Greg Denham and Andrew McGarry |work=The Australian|date=29 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> Shortly after the completion of Round 22, faced with the possibility of ongoing player boycotts – including of the [[Brownlow Medal]] count<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22320631-952,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier Mail]]|title=Players may boycott Brownlow Medal|date=28 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007 | first=Guy | last=Hand}}</ref> – the Seven Network issued a statement "regretting" any harm the broadcast may have caused to the AFL, the clubs and the players, and promised not to broadcast or reveal any of the details of the medical records in future.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/09/04/2024124.htm|publisher=[[ABC News (Australia)|ABC News]]|title=Seven apologises for AFL drugs story|date=4 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> The [[AFL Players Association]] took the "statement of regret" as an apology and the boycott was lifted.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/story/0,21598,22366508-5005401,00.html|publisher=[[Perth Now]]|title=Channel Seven backs down on AFL drugs yarn|date=5 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> The scandal came to be known as [[Drugs in the Australian Football League|"Guttergate"]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/showarticle.aspx?article=1bd7f83c-c8fc-4ffe-b84f-825c3e4f048d&viewmode=2&page=50|publisher=[[The Sunday Age]]|title=All Braun, no brain means Aka snubs Seven|date=2 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref>
* The final game of the home-and-away season became particularly controversial through circumstance. The two teams, {{AFL Mel}} and {{AFL Car}}, each had records of 4–17, and had no chance of winning the [[wooden spoon (award)|wooden spoon]], which had been won by Richmond (record of 3-18-1). Under [[priority draft pick]] rules, this meant that whichever team won the game would lose a potential priority draft pick (which would have been the first overall selection if Carlton had it, or pick No. 18 if Melbourne had it). Melbourne won by five goals in a game noted for a lack of defensive pressure, while many in the crowd openly supported their teams to defeat.
* The [[2007 AFL finals series|second semi-final]] between {{AFL WC}} and {{AFL Col}} went into [[extra time]] after scores were level at the end of regulation. This was only the second time that extra time has been used in an AFL game, and was also the second time that these teams had drawn in a final.
* {{AFL Gee}} set a new record for the highest winning margin in a Grand Final against {{AFL Por}}, [[2007 AFL Grand Final|winning by 119 points]].
==Notable events==
* On Thursday 8 February it was announced that the [[Seven Network]] (who had not broadcast AFL for five years) and Ten Network had reached an agreement to on-sell four games per round to pay-TV provider Foxtel.

==Notable events==
* On Thursday 8 February it was announced that the [[Seven Network]] (who had not broadcast AFL for five years) and Ten Network had reached an agreement to on-sell four games per round to pay-TV provider Foxtel.
* In [[#Round 6|Round 6]], {{AFL Gee}} scored 35.12 (222) against {{AFL Ric}}, the highest score kicked in an AFL game since quarters were shortened from twenty-five to twenty minutes in 1994 and the first time a team has scored over 200 points since [[1995 AFL season#Round 22|Round 22, 1995]]. Their winning margin of 157 points also broke the record for the same period, and they scored an all-time record 23 more goals than behinds, and an all-time record three-quarter time score of 29.9 (183). This was also Richmond's biggest loss in its 99-year VFL/AFL history.
* In [[#Round 8|Round 8]], {{AFL Haw}} and {{AFL StK}} were widely criticised for their game, which in perfect weather yielded only seven goals in the first three quarters (before opening up in the final quarter), and was described as boring by Essendon coach Kevin Sheedy.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/sundaytelegraph/story/0,22049,21777545-5006065,00.html|publisher=[[Sunday Telegraph]]|title=Sheedy condemns ugly footy|date=23 May 2007|accessdate=3 June 2007}}</ref>
* [[#Round 12 (Split Round)|Round 12]]'s game between {{AFL Car}} and {{AFL Haw}} attracted 53,459 fans, breaking the record for the highest AFL crowd at [[Telstra Dome]]. In the same game, Hawthorn kicked their highest ever score against Carlton: 27.18 (180), and also achieved their greatest winning margin against Carlton, 100 points.<ref name=HawBluRnd12>{{cite news|url=http://www.hawthornfc.com.au/Default.aspx?tabid=4742&newsId=45113|publisher=Official AFL Website of the Hawthorn Football Club |title=Hawks hammer hapless Blues|date=15 June 2007|accessdate=18 June 2007}}</ref>
* [[Robert Harvey (footballer)|Robert Harvey]] became just the 10th player in VFL/AFL history to reach 350 games, helping {{AFL StK}} defeat {{AFL WC}}. The win was the second time in 60 games that a Victorian team had beaten West Coast at Subiaco Oval.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,21960112-661,00.html|work=Herald Sun |title=Saints give Harvey great memory|date=24 June 2007|accessdate=24 June 2007}}</ref>
* The [[#Round 16|Round 16]] game between {{AFL BL}} against {{AFL Car}} at [[The Gabba]] saw [[Jonathan Brown (Australian footballer)|Jonathan Brown]] become the first {{AFL BL}} player to kick 10 goals in a match, kicking 10.1 for the game. This surpassed [[Daniel Bradshaw]]'s 9 goals in [[2005 AFL season#Round 14|2005]] v {{AFL Mel}} at The Gabba. After this match [[Denis Pagan]] was sacked as the coach of Carlton.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22114566-10389,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier-Mail]]|title=Brown leads Lions romp|date=28 September 2007|accessdate=3 June 2007 | first=Marco | last=Monteverde}}</ref>
*On 24 August, the [[Seven Network]] broadcast some details obtained from players' confidential medical records on its nightly news program relating to the use of non-performance-enhancing drugs. It allegedly purchased these details for $3000 from a woman who found them in a gutter outside a medical clinic in Melbourne. The name of the club involved, Hawthorn, was revealed by Seven on air, but before the end of the news program (at which time Seven had promised to actually reveal the names of the players), the AFL obtained a court injunction from the [[Supreme Court of Victoria]] which prevented this – and which continues to suppress the publication of any part of the records, including the name of the club.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22326660-5013756,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier Mail]]|title=Police probe AFL drug-dealing allegations|date=29 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007 | first=Sam | last=Edmund}}</ref> Because anonymity was guaranteed under the AFL's "three-strikes" drugs policy, the AFL players responded by boycotting the Seven Network, refusing to answer any questions posed by its journalists, including in matches broadcast by the network.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/player-power-strikes-seven/story-e6frf33l-1111114291331|title=Player power strikes Seven|authors=Greg Denham and Andrew McGarry |work=The Australian|date=29 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> Shortly after the completion of Round 22, faced with the possibility of ongoing player boycotts – including of the [[Brownlow Medal]] count<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,22320631-952,00.html|publisher=[[The Courier Mail]]|title=Players may boycott Brownlow Medal|date=28 August 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007 | first=Guy | last=Hand}}</ref> – the Seven Network issued a statement "regretting" any harm the broadcast may have caused to the AFL, the clubs and the players, and promised not to broadcast or reveal any of the details of the medical records in future.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/09/04/2024124.htm|publisher=[[ABC News (Australia)|ABC News]]|title=Seven apologises for AFL drugs story|date=4 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> The [[AFL Players Association]] took the "statement of regret" as an apology and the boycott was lifted.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/story/0,21598,22366508-5005401,00.html|publisher=[[Perth Now]]|title=Channel Seven backs down on AFL drugs yarn|date=5 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref> The scandal came to be known as [[Drugs in the Australian Football League|"Guttergate"]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/showarticle.aspx?article=1bd7f83c-c8fc-4ffe-b84f-825c3e4f048d&viewmode=2&page=50|publisher=[[The Sunday Age]]|title=All Braun, no brain means Aka snubs Seven|date=2 September 2007|accessdate=11 September 2007}}</ref>
* The final game of the home-and-away season became particularly controversial through circumstance. The two teams, {{AFL Mel}} and {{AFL Car}}, each had records of 4–17, and had no chance of winning the [[wooden spoon (award)|wooden spoon]], which had been won by Richmond (record of 3-18-1). Under [[priority draft pick]] rules, this meant that whichever team won the game would lose a potential priority draft pick (which would have been the first overall selection if Carlton had it, or pick No. 18 if Melbourne had it). Melbourne won by five goals in a game noted for a lack of defensive pressure, while many in the crowd openly supported their teams to defeat.
* The [[2007 AFL finals series|second semi-final]] between {{AFL WC}} and {{AFL Col}} went into [[extra time]] after scores were level at the end of regulation. This was only the second time that extra time has been used in an AFL game, and was also the second time that these teams had drawn in a final.
* {{AFL Gee}} set a new record for the highest winning margin in a Grand Final against {{AFL Por}}, [[2007 AFL Grand Final|winning by 119 points]].
==Notable events==
* On Thursday 8 February it was announced that the [[Seven Network]] (who had not broadcast AFL for five years) and Ten Network had reached an agreement to on-sell four games per round to pay-TV provider Foxtel.
