The season featured eighteen clubs, ran from 14 March until 27 September, and comprised a 22-game home-and-away season followed by a finals series featuring the top eight clubs. The premiership was won by the Hawthorn Football Club for the twelfth time and second time consecutively, after it defeated by 63 points in the 2014 AFL Grand Final. Pre-season From 2014, the AFL abandoned the pre-season premiership, which since 1988 had seen practice matches combined with a (usually knock-out) tournament ending with a winning club. Instead, the pre-season has featured a series of stand-alone practice matches, which has been the case ever since. Known as the 2014 NAB Challenge, the series featured 27 practice matches played over 25 days, beginning 26 February and ending 22 March.Footy heads back to the 'burbs with 2015 NAB Challenge fixture http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-10-28/afl-releases-2015-nab-challenge-fixture Ben Guthrie 28 October 2014 Telstra Media AFL.com.au 28 October 2014 Each team played three pre-season games, many of which were played at suburban or regional venues, with most games televised on Fox Footy.
