Home Advantage – The Home Advantage column represents games where there is a distinct advantage for one team over another, for example, if the West Coast Eagles are playing at home against the Essendon Bombers then the Eagles have a significant advantage due to a number of factors including interstate travel of the opposing team, local fan base, and time difference (even though it is minor in Australia it is still worth noting considering night games can change by several hours)
Neutral – The Neutral column represents games won that were played with no significant home or away advantage, these include games with a loyal fan base for both teams, may not be played at the home stadium but will still be in the surrounding area such as Collingwood (MCG home ground) playing St Kilda (Marvel Stadium).
Away Disadvantage – The Away Disadvantage column represents games won where the team had a distinct disadvantage, for example, this would be for a game where the Geelong Cats travel to South Australia to play the Adelaide Crows, the Adelaide Crows have an extremely loyal fan based, there is a slight time difference, and the Cats will be playing on a field they rarely play at.
