- The 1915 Victorian Football Association season was the 39th season of the Australian rules football competition. The season was the first to be played while Australia was fighting in World War I, so the playing stocks of many teams were reduced by enlistments. The season itself was cut five weeks short to encourage more young men to enlist in the war effort. It was the last season played before the Association went into recess for two seasons during the peak of the war. The premiership was won by the North Melbourne Football Club, after it defeated Brunswick by 48 points in the final on August 7. It was the club's fifth VFA premiership, and its second in a sequence of three premierships won consecutively between 1914 and 1918. North Melbourne won all fifteen premiership matches it played during 1915, becoming the first team to go undefeated through a season since Essendon (L.) in 1893; the season was part of a 58-match winning streak for North Melbourne which lasted from 1914–1919.
