so far I have;
Williams-Gallagher Cup (PAM v N 1991-)
ANZAC Cup (2005-)
Stever Turner Cup (WWT v NA is it still contested???)
Bob Shearman Cup (WWt v St 2000- is it still contested????)
Diadora Cup (G, WA, PAM 2007)
Eagle Cup (WT v W 1990)
I believe there is a cup for G v SA from 1991

I haven't seen the Steve Turner cup presented for a long time, there was one stage there when the Eagles won against us about 20 times in a row so they probably just held onto it for good.

What is the cup in the foyer at Prospect with Red/White ribbons on one handle, and Blue/Green/Yellow on the other?

Dunno but considering the Eagles have beaten us the last 3 times we shouldn't have it?

Sad to say that Centrals & South play for the Mayors Trophy. Only started the last couple of years.
Best thing I saw was at Noarlunga Oval the year we won this particular cup, it may have been the first year. It was presented on the oval by our mayor. Heath Hopwood was the acting captain and came over to accept the cup he shook hands, had his photo taken and then ran off without the cup leaving the mayor holding it.
Thankfully I haven't seen this trophy displayed in the clubrooms or presented since.
Hopefully it no longer exists and we don't play for it anymore.
The only other minor trophy of note is the ANZAC Day Battle Trophy contested each year by the Grand Finalists from the previous year.
Don't mind this one so much but the only trophy worth winning is the Thomas Seymour Hill Cup.

I was assuming that it was either played for the first game they play each other in a season (last time we beat the Eagles was Rd.1 2006 @ Prospect) or that it was an old trophy not played for at all anymore, if that is the case it would be better off put in storage, and display something with a bit more history value in it's place.

It would be nice if the SANFL also gave the premiers a cup to keep, rather than a replica.
Everytime i walk into an AFL clubrooms........... its impressive to see all the cups.
