Their matches against inter-state teams West Coast, Adelaide and the Brisbane Lions were played at the MCG.
Squad
- Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2011 statistics are for AFL regular season and finals series matches during the 2011 AFL season only. Career statistics include a player's complete AFL career, which, as a result, means that a player's debut and part or whole of their career statistics may be for another club. Statistics are correct as of the 2011 Grand Final (1 October 2011) and are taken from AFL Tables.
