Discipline

During the season each club is given fair play points based on the number of cards they received in games. A yellow card is worth 1 point, a second yellow card is worth 2 points, and a red card is worth 3 points. At the annual awards night, the club with the least number of points wins the Fair Play Award.[47]

Template:Fb rbr pos footer

NAB Young Footballer of the Year Award

The NAB Young Footballer of the Year Award will be awarded to the finest performance of an under-23 player from Australia or New Zealand throughout the season.

The winner receives a $10,000 personal investment portfolio and a NAB Private Client Manager to assist with meeting their financial goals.[48]
