I think it was 96 at the Ponderossa doggies down by about 7 goals (had a few by then) going in to the last 1/4 I was copping heaps from some maggie supporters but we ended up winning and I couldn't find them, was also my wife and daughters first SANFL game bloody brilliant

Sensational game that Friday night game, I remember listening to it on radio.

I was at the 2000 GF and although not a Dogs fan it was great seeing a club winning their first ever flag.

[rod_rooster]

North v Port on Fathers Day 1989 best game i've seen.

[Adelaide Hawk]

Best exhibition of SANFL footy I've been to is the 1973 GF. Just a brilliant game.
Not a great game, but Round 5 1977, Norwood defeated North Adelaide by 25 goals. I don't think I've ever seen one team play so well for an entire game.
Greatest memory - 1975 Grand Final v Glenelg. As a kid following the Redlegs in the 1960s I never thought I'd ever see Norwood win a flag.
The 1973 State Game, SA v Vic at Adelaide Oval was a pearler. Jesaulenko booted 10 and SA just fell short by 4 points.

[Dogsbody]

I've only followed the SANFL in the post AFL era, so memorable matches are few and far between. I've forgotten most of them.

One that stands out is SA vs. Victoria 1994, then VFL vs. SANFL 2005 and then the 2000 Grand Final. The first flag is always the most memorable.

theres a couple of games i can remember well was when south won their first game for long time against norwood at footy park not sure on the yr or how many games it was b4 the win i think it was after the don scott debarkle

and the other game i remember was at adelaide oval darren harris kicked a booming 60m kick for south in the final qtr which won the game for south

It would have been 1989, as South beat Norwood in 1985 at Adelaide after Scott was sacked.

Round 9 1989
South 5.3 10.4 15.6 17.8 (110)
Norwood 4.3 8.7 11.11 13.14 (92)
Football Park, (D/H) 17834

[longtimewaiting_2]

yeah sorry that game at adelaide oval was against port south won by 4 pts
and secondly the time south beat port at alberton ive been told was a first win for ages in 1991 but i still think there was a game against norwood at footy park which was our longest losing streak beaten for a long time i remember getting chased by red coats for running on the oval

[stampy]

red coats or white coats?

Wasnt 7 goals...it was 4-5. You had a big wind in the last quarter. I remember saying to my mate at 3/4 time "We'll lose this" as I didnt think we had done enough to get a match winning lead up. Dissapointing to lose none the less. Most memorable thing of that day was the all in brawl after the half time siren which was started by Tim Cook and David Brown going toe to toe and ended up with every single player on the field getting involved...all this while mini league kids were trying to run onto the oval. That and also being spat on by some Centrals feral.

We made up for it when it counted though.

Best games from memory

1994 Qualifying Final Port v Centrals (extra time match)

1999 Grand Final Port v Norwood
2000 R10 Port v Centrals (great comeback)

2005 R5 Port v North
2005 R11 Port v South

The 1988 double header late in season when sturt defeated port by a point or so.

It was obvious that the sturt side was going on to greater things, probably the folowing year, but some
one did not like it, so Merve K was not reappointed.

[mighty_tiger_79]

the Glenelg v Port match at Alberton in 92/93 when the bays won by 15 goals

[CENTURION]

2000 Grand Final Victory is BY FAR the best ever, purely & simply for the fact that it was Our first Grand Final Victory & the feeling of absolute elation & exhiliration was awesome. NO-ONE but a Central supporter would possibly know what it is like, unless you are very old but then you probably can't remember anyway. AND I don't include Eagle supporters because there weren't any long-time "real" supporters barracking for them when they won. MAYBE if they win this year it could be considered but the GF is played in October & we all knows what happens then, don't we? (cough, cough, splutter, gag, CHOKE)!

[sturt1]

Northernblue that game in 88 was the best I have seen by a mile. It had everything, I would love to find it on video or dvd.

[GWW]

but some
one did not like it, so Merve K was not reappointed.

......and didn't you guys pay for that

[raymond]

thanks for that macca like i said I had had a few by then but I do remember port kicked the first in the last I didn't see any spitting where I was!

[sturt1]

GWW we did pay for that I am still not over it. What good did it do for the club?
