I thought that the bars would be the go-to. But if they had to incorporate teal as well, couldn't that signify the water below the pylons? Perhaps a gradual transition of colour part-way down the bars?
Love the second one BTW. In fact, these concepts are mint.
In the mid to late 2000's, a store in SA called The First Bounce got Sekem merch, which included SANFL guernseys. I was able to secure two state jumpers. Those were signed by the teams of 2006 and 2008. Years later I got my hands on a back up guernsey from the 2012 game and have worn it to games...
Hi Footy fans...
This is the day many SA footy-heads have been waiting for, though some have been waiting for almost half a century for this match up to happen again. For only the fourth time in league history, the Tigers and the Double Blues would take the centre stage to do battle over the...
Hi Footy fans...
The road to the SANFL premiership continued last week, the Bulldogs were shown the exit ramp by the Double Blues while the Tigers found their way to the Grand Final express lane at the expense of the Crows. The roadblock put up by the reigning premiers would see the Blues...
Hi Footy fans...
Last weekend the Bulldogs dumped the Magpies from the SANFL premiership hunt, coupled with the Power's AFL Qualifying Final loss in Brisbane it was truly a fortnight to forget for the Port faithful. But then came the follow-up, the Crows giving Sturt the blues in their...
Hi Footy fans...
It's that time of year once more, we are now in survival mode as we kick off the 2023 SANFL Finals Series. Five teams, four weekends, the last team standing wins the prize. For the second time in the last three season, the Tigers are minor premiers and were watching in the...
Hi Footy fans...
We have come to the end of the home and away section of the season, next week begins the race for the 2023 premiership and the Thomas Seymour-Hill Trophy. We were guaranteed a new premier quite a while ago, the Redlegs' flag defence going completely off the rails. Some other...
My more recent additions.
Glenelg 100 year guernsey, signed so far by Nick Chigwidden and Peter Carey
Central District 2023 away guernsey
Port Adelaide 150 year guernseys, bars and stripes
Port Melbourne 2022 edition "Frank Johnson heritage day" jumper (match worn)
Woodville-West Torrens 1993...
Hi Footy fans...
What a hot weekend we just had here. Its usually around this time of year that there's some spanners thrown around and quite often, an engine ends up being stalled as a result. Some will say that they'd rather have one little brain fade, one last loss on the board, that end of...
Hi Footy fans...
The call of the Adelaide Oval is getting louder and louder now... just two more rounds of the regular season to go. The focus over the last couple of weeks has been well and truly on the men of Brighton Road, the Tigers' best football hasn't been very visible after only just...
Hi Footy fans...
We're now coming up to the final few weeks of the 2023 premiership season and we're in for an interesting finish to the minor round. Before that can happen though, there's one last seasonal break for the league, which for some teams is a good thing, to work on some tactics that...
My latest buy, a Woodville-West Torrens guernsey commemorating the 30th anniversary of the 1993 SANFL premiership victory. There were only enough made for the team, so they are indeed a limited run.
Would have been issued to Daniel Menzel if he stuck around at the club.
Hi Footy fans...
This past weekend over the border in Victoria, state league football was in the news for all the wrong reasons. In a scenario that many an SA footy-head would dread to happen over here, the true difference between the haves and the have-nots in football was there for all to see...
Hi Footy fans...
Back in 1990, a schism occurred in South Australian football which would change the landscape of the SANFL forever. It started with the shock report of Port Adelaide's intention to break from the league and join the AFL, which subsequently was thwarted by the SANFL and led to...
Hi Footy fans...
The best country footballers converged on Nuriootpa this past weekend for the SA Country Football Championships. Six teams with players from all over the South Australian rural landscape, condensed into six teams. This is perhaps one of the true best of the best tournaments in...
Hi Footy fans...
Those of us around today and probably the previous couple of generations will have fond memories of indigenous footballers in the SANFL. In recent years, we've had very familiar names running around our fields, like Marlon Motlop and Anthony Wilson, both premiership players for...
Hi Footy fans...
Despite the match at Glenelg a fortnight ago not reaching the lofty heights that many had hoped, more than 7,000 people turned out for a rain-free afternoon at Brighton Road, along with an aggregate attendance of over 17,000 for the Round 9 long weekend. In fact, that...
Hi Footy fans...
This round of games represented the half-way point of the season and up on top before a ball was kicked in anger were the Blues, seemingly untouchable at the top of the league ladder. Below them looming quite large are the Tigers, which would result in a very tasty looking...
Hi Footy fans...
What a weekend we just had. The weather was kind compared to last week, there were some close finishes and a little over 10000 SA footy-heads turned out to the five games on offer. There was some spectacular clashes, some ugly clashes as well and hearts broken as a result. If...
Hi Footy fans...
This is probably going to sound like going over old ground. Last weekend, South Australia retained the Haydn Bunton Junior Trophy with a scrappy but hard fought 13-point win over Western Australia. Whilst it wasn't a skill-laden classic, it was still deserving of a crowd of its...
Hi Footy fans...
Interstate football has provided us with some classic moments in the game. Such as the Croweaters triumph at the MCG over the Vics in 1963. A ground-breaking first up win at Origin level against the Big V 20 years later at Football Park. A controversial score after the siren...

Hi Footy fans...
50 years ago, one of the best if not greatest, SANFL Grand Finals was played out. It was 1973, the Tigers winning only their second premiership in their mere 52-year existence, bringing an end to a near 40-year drought since their first league flag of 1934. The Roosters were...
Hi Footy fans...
The first few weeks of the 2023 SANFL Season have been a hit crowd-wise, relatively good weather bringing in the people on mass with almost 44,000 SA footy-heads passing through the gates. The sun was out, or the clouds just hung around without dumping down on the football fans...
Hi Footy fans...
If we thought the player and talent drain on the state leagues was bad when the Giants and the Suns came into the national competition, well it looks like its probably going to happen again in a few years time. This past weekend, the Federal Government announced that funding is...
