The E. J. Whitten Legends Game was an annual charity all-star Australian rules football match played in Australia. Retired star players were reunited, along with selected non-footballing celebrities, in a State of Origin interstate game between Victoria and a composite side known as the All-Stars. The game was contested annually from 1996 to 2019 and played under Superules.
Originally a sporting contest attracting interest from spectators, in later years it became a form of sports entertainment, including increased celebrity appearances, scripting and manipulated outcomes. The match was cancelled during the COVID-19 pandemic and has not returned since.
