The 1982 Victorian Football League season was the 86th season of the elite Australian rules football competition. This season commenced on 20 March 1982 and concluded on 25 September 1982 with Carlton defeating Richmond in the Grand Final to win its second consecutive Premiership.

The season was the first in which the VFL established a permanent interstate presence, with the South Melbourne Football Club moving all of its home games to Sydney, New South Wales, ultimately becoming known as the Sydney Swans.

Swans defeated North Melbourne 13.12 (90) to 8.10 (58) in the Final.
