Teams which have won "the double"

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

The double is when you win the AFL and second level league applicable to the team.. For example, Geelong wins AFL and VFL in 2007.

Teams that have I know have done it:

Hawthorn in 2013
Geelong in 2007

Who else?

Never heard of "the double" in the AFL.

Sure enough the OP's team won the prestigious reserves flag yesterday.

In soccer "the double" means meaning two competitions the real team plays in.

We won it in 2014 too.
The stand-alone team is really working for us as players don't have to adjust structures when they get promoted. Quite a few promising kids playing yesterday and one I'd love to draft (Ben Long).

For some people, such as myself, the VFL comp is just as important as the AFL.

The nearest equivalent in that case would formerly be winning the preseason cup here. Essendon did it in 2000, I think. No idea how many more, but probably a few.

I haven't heard of the double either - didn't know it was a thing.

My double happened in 99 - Roo's and Storm.

Hoping for the treble in one year - Roo's, Storm and Seattle Seahawks!!
