[Edit: apologies for odd formatting, I have absolutely no idea why the word "Body" is displaying at the top of the body of the post and cannot figure out how to remove it]
These are the results the club has announced so far:
VFL:
Jack McFarlane Medal (Best and Fairest): Tom Hird
Best and Fairest Runner-Up: Harvey Hooper
Ted & Rob Freyer Memorial Trophy (Most Determined): Tom Graham
Tom Lahiff Trophy (Spirit of the Borough): Dyson Turner-Heppell
Best First-Year Player: AJ Kuol Mun
Port Melbourne Captain and two time premiership player Harvey Hooper has announced that the 2025 season will be his last.
His leadership and efforts at the Borough won't be easily forgotten as he has been a first class competitor in the VFA/VFL over the last decade. It's fitting that his performance representing the VFL this yes against South Australia was instrumental in the Big V ending a long losing streak.
Well done Hoops on a great career.
Not a lot of detail in this article, but apparently Darebin has serious funding issues, to the point that the future of the club's VFLW team may be in doubt:

The AFL has today confirmed the Tasmania Football Club will field teams in the Victorian Football League (VFL) and Victorian Football League Women’s (VFLW) in 2026.
Tasmania will join the competitions on a full-time basis from next season as the club continues preparations for entry into the AFL and AFLW after being awarded the 19th licence in 2023.
Tasmania previously competed in the VFL for eight seasons between 2001 to 2008.
The Camberwell Historical Society have a terrific display currently on show at the Camberwell Library.
The display includes photos of teams over the years, along with club memorabilia, premiership flags and medallions
The display is located at the back of the Camberwell Library (behind some glass sliding doors. My dad and I went on Sunday. As past members of the Cobras, we thought it was terrific.
Hopefully it is not a one-off and can be added to over time.
