when AFL first began, it was only played in the one Australian state of Victoria, so it used to simply be called the VFL or Victorian football league. then they expanded the game into a nationwide competition and it became the AFL or austrlain football league. there's still a VFL which is a smaller Victorian based league that the coaches of AFL teams go to and watch to pick up new recruits for the major AFL teams.

hope this answers your question :)

P.S. I'm an Aussie, so I'm not making it up lol.
