Best Answer

There is no standard size for an AFL ground.

The 2011 Laws of the game document states:

The Playing Surface shall be:

(i) oval in shape;

(ii) between 135 metres and 185 metres in length; and

(iii) between 110 metres and 155 metres in width.

As ground sizes vary, use the approx dimensions of about 140 yards wide by about 175 yards long.

Then use a formula for calculating elipses. Thise should give you a comfortably accurate ball park figureLOL.
