The 2016 NEAFL season will be the 6th season of the North East Australian Football League (NEAFL). The season will begin on Saturday, 2 April and will conclude on either Saturday, 10 September or Sunday, 11 September with the NEAFL Grand Final.[1]
Participating clubs
Two teams changed their names prior to the 2016 season. Eastlake's NEAFL side started to play as the Canberra Demons in an attempt to be seen as Canberra's representative team in the NEAFL competition. The club wishes to provide a clear AFL pathway for local talent and to get rid of the baggage between other clubs in the ACT. As part of this decision the team also adopted a blue and gold guernsey for home games, reflecting the territory's traditional colours. The team will still wear Eastlake's red and black colours in away matches.[2] The Greater Western Sydney reserves team became known as the Western Sydney University Giants to reflect the re-branding of the university from University of Western Sydney.[3]
