List of Tasmanian Football League records

This is a list of Tasmanian Football League records.

For a detailed list of records pertaining to Statewide (post-1985) football, see Statewide Football in Tasmania.

Record games holder: TANFL

• 352 - Steane Kremerskothen (Launceston / Clarence / North Launceston) from 1982-1999
• 274 – – Kevin Baker (Glenorchy) from 1957–1974

Note: After the TANFL went to a statewide competition in 1986-1987, Steane Kremerskothen broke the all-time record with 303 TFL matches playing for Clarence and North Launceston/Northern Bombers until 1999. As a prerequisite of the league going statewide, it was deemed that the regional competitions (TANFL, NTFA and NWFU) of pre-1986 were now granted equal status and therefore Kremerskothen's 49 matches with Launceston in the NTFA from 1982–1984 gave him 352 senior matches at Tier One level, also an all time record.
