Has an AFL game ever ended 96-35?
Exactly once. On August 3, 2002, Fremantle beat Hawthorn 96-35, and no AFL game before or since has ended that way. When it happened it was a scorigami, the first 96-35 in league history.
That makes 96-35 the 3836th most common final score out of 6,607 that have ever occurred in AFL. One point away, 97-35 has happened never and 96-36 has happened 2 times.
