Played during the peak of World War II, only eleven of the league's twelve clubs competed, with Geelong withdrawing due to travel restrictions. The season ran from 9 May until 19 September, and comprised a home-and-away season in which each club played either 14 or 15 games, followed by a finals series featuring the top four clubs. The 1942 premiership was won by Essendon. In 1944 Carlton finished in 5th position and the premiership was won by Fitzroy.
