2 was South in 1997. Drew with West at Noarlunga then Glenelg at the Bay.
On 4: I had a vague memory of the biggest comeback being 70-odd points at Unley, Sturt v Central, in the late seventies? Can you dig up the scores of that one spelly?

2 is correct.
That game was in 1982; the 70 points was midway through the second quarter - the biggest comeback overall.
Round 16 1982
Central 2.2 8.9 14.17 20.23 (143)
Sturt 9.5 15.6 18.11 21.15 (141)
Unley, 6218

I meant 1976. The mid 70's are all a blur to me (too much glam rock)

If no-one has got the correct answer by 9pm today (Saturday), I'll reveal the answer. You must have the score, the team and the year to get it right.
