=Discipline=

During the season each club is given fair play points based on the number of cards they received in games. A yellow card is worth 1 point, a second yellow card is worth 2 points, and a red card is worth 3 points. At the annual awards night, the club with the fewest points wins the Fair Play Award.{{cite web|url=http://footballcentral.com.au/disciplinary-record-march/|title=A Fair Play Update|publisher=Football Central|first=Scott|last=Owen|date=11 March 2016|access-date=8 October 2016|archive-date=10 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160310192002/http://footballcentral.com.au/disciplinary-record-march/|url-status=dead}}
