Couple of years ago, 2017.
Before that it was about 40 years prior
Before the premiership in 2017 the last A grade premiership at NH (previously PAPFC) was in 1985 so the flag in 2017 broke a 32 year drought.



Wow, didn’t know that TDK. Was there that day and now realise what it meant to the club. It was Towns B grade premiership that day, after 23 years as well. Great day at Alberton. ;)

Yes an important day given the club lost A grade grand finals in previously in 2014, 2003 and 1995 (All Div 5) so it was a long time coming.
And don't remind about that B grade GF haha!

Is there somewhere pre-2013 season records are kept? The current website only goes back to 2013.

Yes mate, try here- https://adelaidefootyleague.teamapp.com ... _detail=v1

Go to 'Decades' for a report from each year for each division.
Go 'Clubs' under the Club & Team topic and/or 'Games Played' under the Player topic for a breakdown of individual games played.

I remember the game as it was at the Uni and it’s the only time I’ve ever played there.


Just looked it up. 1995 A5 South - Was a hybrid D5 North/South comp and not the traditional set up. Realistically the bottom end sides would have been of a typical D6 standard.


That’s the one mate.
It was A5 but a compromised standard due to the changes that year.
From memory we smashed them.


GF was at Kenilworth from memory. Havens got rolled in both - CLG in the A’s and I reckon Mitcham in the B’s?


I played in the B Grade for Mitcham in that game.
