Yeah my Dad remembers!
My Dad grew up in Renown Park - Torrens area.
When he married Mum they bought land and built a house in Modbury Heights in 1977, Torrens area!

Thank god we didn't move to there. The club is western suburbs through and through. Much rather the situation now than had West Torrens left its heartland.
