Best Answer

The competition began as the VFL (Victorian Football League) in 1897.
However, in 1990, its name was changed to the AFL (Australian Football League), since other, interstate clubs had also joined the newly-formed, national league. Although it was always running VFL Grand Finals prior to this change, it has also continued to run them as AFL Grand Finals ever since its name change.
