Hi Footy fans... The discussion regarding the future of the two AFL reserves teams has been a bit louder lately and it seems pretty much inevitable that Adelaide and Port Adelaide will lobby to get an early departure from the SANFL. Last weekend, the original rivalry match between the Magpies...

Hi Footy fans... Over the previous few weeks, two sides have been putting the league on notice and its almost like a trip back to the 2000's. The Bulldogs and the Eagles had a storied rivalry over 12 seasons from the end of the 20th century to the beginning of the 2010's. They clashed in six...

Hi Footy fans... So far this season we have already gotten a dose of representative football with the SANFL defeating a gallant Victorian Football League outfit at Glenelg during this year's AFL Gather Round extravaganza. They will hit the ground again in the second weekend of May against the...

Hi Footy fans... The 2024 SANFL premiership season kicked off with more than 17000 SA footy-heads attending the five games during the pre-Easter period. Then once again, Adelaide hosted the AFL Gather Round, with tens of thousands of football fans flocking to our city. Not only did people...

Hi Footy fans... Not since the 1990's has there been more than one interstate match. In fact, since 2018 it has been just two football powers going at it. So while the Gather Round has brought state league football to a standstill, it has presented the opportunity for the SANFL's best...

Hi Footy fans... It has been over 180 days since we watched the Tigers put some old demons to the sword, finally topping the Blues in a Grand Final and securing their sixth league title last September. That premiership defence began this past weekend as the 2024 SANFL Premiership Season got...

90th anniversary of their 1934 flag against Port? Only thing I can think of.

Hi Footy fans... We are now just one week away from the start of another football year. Yes the 2024 SANFL Hostplus League Premiership Season is about to get underway, the race for the Thomas Seymour-Hill Trophy to begin in earnest. Holding the trophy this time around are the Tigers, who...

I thought that the bars would be the go-to. But if they had to incorporate teal as well, couldn't that signify the water below the pylons? Perhaps a gradual transition of colour part-way down the bars? Love the second one BTW. In fact, these concepts are mint.

In the mid to late 2000's, a store in SA called The First Bounce got Sekem merch, which included SANFL guernseys. I was able to secure two state jumpers. Those were signed by the teams of 2006 and 2008. Years later I got my hands on a back up guernsey from the 2012 game and have worn it to games...

Hi Footy fans... This is the day many SA footy-heads have been waiting for, though some have been waiting for almost half a century for this match up to happen again. For only the fourth time in league history, the Tigers and the Double Blues would take the centre stage to do battle over the...

Hi Footy fans... The road to the SANFL premiership continued last week, the Bulldogs were shown the exit ramp by the Double Blues while the Tigers found their way to the Grand Final express lane at the expense of the Crows. The roadblock put up by the reigning premiers would see the Blues...
