{{Main|Australian Football Hall of Fame}}

For the centenary of the VFL/AFL in 1996, the Australian Football Hall of Fame was established. That year, 136 significant figures across the various competitions were inducted into the Hall of Fame. Each years since the creation of the Hall of Fame, a panel selects a small group of players they deem worthy for this prestigious honour, resulting in a total number of more than 300 inductees as of 2024.

In addition to the Hall of Fame, select members are chosen to receive the elite ''[[Australian Football Hall of Fame#Legends|Legend]]'' status. Due to restrictions limiting the number of Legend status players to 10% of the total number of Hall of Fame inductees, there are currently only 32 players with the status in the Hall of Fame as of 2024.<ref>{{Cite web |title=AFL – News, Fixtures, Scores & Results |url=https://www.afl.com.au/hall-of-fame/legends |access-date=2023-11-12 |website=afl.com.au |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-15 |title=Hawks great Jason Dunstall joins Hall of Fame Legends |url=https://www.afl.com.au/news/1110065/hawthorn-hawks-champion-jason-dunstall-elevated-to-legend-status-in-australian-football-hall-of-fame |access-date=2024-04-15 |website=afl.com.au |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-15 |title=Jason Dunstall's epic resume complete after elevation to Legend status in Australian Football Hall of Fame |url=https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-2024-jason-dunstall-elevated-to-legend-status-in-the-australian-football-hall-of-fame-latest-news/news-story/66e5b534a7a4ef279dd1d0ce30bd0c1e |access-date=2024-04-15 |website=Fox Sports |language=en}}</ref>
