South Australian Football Budget - Round 1 2023 - Vol 98 - No. 1 - 31 Mar

PROUDLY SUPPORTING SANFL SINCE 1954

SUPER SANFL FOOTY Get ready for SANFL Super Matches to set this season alight.

Footy fans and festival goers alike will have plenty to cheer about thanks to a brand new gameday experience throughout the 2023 Hostplus SANFL League season.

In a first for SANFL, one game every weekend will be identified as a SANFL Super Match – presented in partnership with The Advertiser – providing a value-added experience for supporters of all ages.

The marquee matches will not only provide a showcase of top on-field action, a roadshow of aligned offfield activities – from bars and food vans to club-branded giveaways and footy-themed activities – will ensure plenty of fun around the grounds as well.

Various SANFL partner activations have been planned – such as an AAMI chill-out zone, Canadian Club pop-up bar and KIA car displays, complete with an opportunity to win an SA weekend getaway.

The Advertiser Family Zone will feature a range of kids’ activities – including jumping castles, giant games, face painters, a kick ’n’ catch and inflatable fun – while Hostplus goal cards will be available to help you celebrate every goal.

Marked by its inflatable golden arches, McDonald’s will be on hand with thunder sticks, mini footballs, branded tote bags and vouchers, while West End/Hahn representatives with mobile beer backpacks will ensure you won’t need to leave your seat to enjoy a beer.

And if you are keen for a new hairdo, you can even have a cut or style at selected SANFL grounds by Attaboy barber and hairdresser to look like your favourite SANFL player.

SANFL chief executive officer Darren Chandler said the league was “extremely excited” about the Super Match concept, which is aimed at boosting crowds and providing a “real festival atmosphere” at suburban grounds.

“We’re extremely excited about the new weekly SANFL Super Match initiative, aimed at boosting attendances and providing a real festival atmosphere at SANFL grounds to enhance the game-day experience for fans,’’ Chandler said.

“Not only are you guaranteed highquality footy, the SANFL Super Matches will be an opportunity for footy fans, families and festivalgoers to enjoy a unique experience at the footy. Importantly, we want SANFL footy to continue to be an accessible, entertaining familyfriendly experience for all ages to enjoy. With free entry for kids at every game, it’s affordable entertainment.”

Super Matches have already been locked in for the first 10 rounds, with the remainder to be finalised once AFL fixturing has been completed.

The series kicks off with last year’s elimination finalists Sturt and Glenelg at Wigan Oval on Saturday, April 1, with the next featuring Central District against North Adelaide at X Convenience Oval on

Good Friday. After a break for AFL Gather Round, last year’s grand finalists – Norwood and the Roosters – will square off in the Round 3 clash at The Parade on Anzac Day. Fans can access discounted tickets by pre-purchasing online, or tickets will be for sale at the gate.

Chandler said the best value match access was to sign up for a season club membership.

“It’s time to wear your SANFL team colours with pride and get along to cheer on your local club for a great day at the footy in season 2023,” he said.

Tickets can be purchased via www.sanfl.com.au/league/tickets or each home club website.

BURNING QUESTIONS

BY STEVE BARRETT

1. Was last year’s SANFL grand final the best of all-time?

Recency bias is a powerful thing.

The Norwood-North Adelaide decider was a pulsating affair which had everything – high-intensity action, an edge-of-your-seat fourth-quarter comeback, Matthew Panos’s clutch goal for the ages and the closest margin possible.

But best ever? The famous 1973 Glenelg-North epic has been the yardstick by which all other grand finals have been measured for the past 50 years – and realistically still is. The controversial 1978 NorwoodSturt thriller is right up there, as is the Redlegs’ rags-to-riches 1984 triumph against arch rival Port Adelaide. The 2022 version is one of many high-quality deciders of recent times, alongside 2010, 2014 and 2017 – which was also decided by one point, when Sturt beat Port in epic fashion.

2. Will Norwood go back-to-back?

The Redlegs weren’t the best team over the course of last year – and they looked in big trouble when they were being belted by Adelaide in the qualifying final. But Jade Rawlings’ charges were at their best when it mattered, employing a 4

hard-edged, contested brand specifically designed to prosper in September. Building on the belief garnered from its 2022 achievement, Norwood deserves prohibitive flag favouritism. But make no mistake, this one looms as a tight race.

3. Will last year’s grand final loss scar North?

For varying reasons, the Roosters have a long history of not backing up successful seasons. After winning the 2018 decider, they slumped to ninth in 2019, hamstrung of course by the fallout from the 19th-man controversy.

North’s 2020 runner-up performance was followed by an elimination final exit in ’21. The Roosters went from second in 2013 to sixth in ’14, second in 2007 to seventh in ’08, premiers in 1991 to a straight-sets finals exit in ’92 and from first in 1987 to sixth in ’88.

There is no logical reason why North won’t be around the mark again, besides more than three decades of hoodoo-defying history that suggests otherwise.

4. Who is Darren Reeves?

Glenelg’s new coach doesn’t boast the glamorous big name of past

Matt Panos stole the show in last year’s miracle Norwood win in a grand final classic against North Adelaide.

Can Panos and the Redlegs do it again?

Tiger mentors like Neil Kerley, Graham Cornes, Kym Hodgeman, Tony McGuinness, Mark Williams, Len Fitzgerald and John Nicholls.

But then, neither did Mark Stone – and look at how he turned out in 2019. Hailing from the NSW Blue Mountains where cricket was his first sporting love, Reeves cut his coaching teeth under the great Roy Laird at Central District, as under-18 coach and an assistant, before more recently steering the Roosters’ reserves into a couple of grand finals.

5. Can the Eagles regain their hunger?

Woodville-West Torrens looked set to clear away from the pack and create a big early lead in the race to be the team of the 2020s. But the Eagles’ dream of a three-peat died well before the finals began. Coach Jade Sheedy noticed rival contenders yet to taste the ultimate success increasingly outmatching his side in the desperation stakes.

The Eagles can never be discounted and expect the ruthless edge – their 2020-21 one-wood – to return, although that alone may not be enough to overpower the teams that shot past them last year.

6. Is Sturt’s goalkicking a worry?

Relatively speaking, yes. Here’s a little-known fact: the Double Blues’ last finals victory – their 2017 premiership – was more than 2000 days and three Prime Ministers ago.

Sturt’s first-rate defence has ranked in the top three, statistically, every season since. And its midfield, led by James Battersby, Patrick Wilson and Tom Lewis, is as good as anybody’s most days. But the Blues’ forward line lacks the firepower of some of the competition’s big guns. Following the exit of Abe Davis over the offseason, coach Martin Mattner will need to formulate some inventive goalscoring avenues.

7. Will anybody other than a midfielder win the Magarey Medal?

If the midfielders’ stranglehold on SANFL’s most prestigious individual prize was ever going to be broken it was last year when Sturt backman Casey Voss and Norwood big man Harry Boyd polled strongly. Voss finished only two votes shy of winner Aaron Young, while Boyd arguably lost some early votes to fellow Redleg and eventual runnerup Nik Rokahr. In the washup, though, Port ruckman Ryan O’Connor, way back in 2001, remains the last non-specialist midfielder to win the award. Don’t expect that to change in 2023.

8. Who is the best player in the SANFL? Boyd is certainly the most important to his team and, by many measures, also the best. He led the league in hit-outs and clearances, a rare feat.

Young, Riley Knight, Matt Snook, Voss, Boyd’s good mate Rokahr are all skilful, elite players ... but none of them do what big Harry does.

Without Boyd’s 20 touches and whopping 64 hit-outs, Norwood doesn’t win the 2022 grand final.

9. Who will be the best recruit?

Brett Turner was last year's human toll of the AFL's contentious midseason draft. Nabbed from the Bays – whose flag odds immediately nosedived from that point – playing strictly for the Crows’ reserves, then delisted as soon as the season

ended, it was quite a whirlwind for Turner. He’s a fine player who will be determined to make every post a winner in 2023 after being welcomed back to Tiger Land with open arms.

10. Is it time for Paul Thomas and the Bulldogs to deliver?

Patience is still the key at Elizabeth.

Thomas, a club legend and fourtime premiership skipper during Central’s glory years, has spent the past two seasons slowly regenerating the young list from the coaches’ box. While the departure of last year’s top Magarey votegetter (Travis Schiller) and best defender (Rhett Montgomerie) hurts, the Dogs spent most of the summer going back to their old aggressive recruiting ways, bringing Jez McLennan back home and enticing a swag of Sturt’s fringe players to the Ponderosa. A return to the glory days isn’t on the horizon but improvement is expected.

11. Can one of last season’s bottom five play finals?

With just a fraction more luck with injuries, mid-season drafts and closing out tight games, expect South Adelaide to move back up the ladder swiftly.

14. Can one of the AFL-aligned teams win their first SANFL flag?

Talent-wise, the Crows and Magpies’ SANFL outfits can never be discounted. And they were boosted by some rule changes over the off-season to take effect in 2023. Base and match payments for Adelaide and Port’s SANFLcontracted players have gone up, their marquee player no longer has to be over 26 and contract lengths have been increased by 12 months to 24 months. As ever, though, both clubs’ fortunes will depend on their injury list lengths and motivation borne from the AFL performances

Jarrad Wright has given South Adelaide stability. But can he deliver the Panthers a flag?

12. Can the Panthers break their 59-year premiership drought?

Ah, the eternal $64,000 question around 1964. The return of Sam Skinner and prized recruitment of Kobe Mutch certainly build optimism.

And there is stability with Jarrad Wright – the longest-serving South coach since John Reid, boasting a 55 per cent win-loss record – at the helm. But it’s doubtful if the Panthers have the cattle to overtake Norwood, North and Glenelg.

13. Who will cop the wooden spoon?

After showing signs of rejuvenation towards the end of 2022, West Adelaide endured a list pillaging over the off-season, losing a host of top-end talent, headlined by Neil Kerley Medallist Hamish Hartlett, long-serving captain Tom Keough and premiership defender Logan Hill. It’s almost impossible to see the Bloods avoiding a fifth successive spoon.

Can determined skipper Jarrod Schiller help lift Paul Thomas’s Bulldogs back into finals action?

of the Crows and Power.

15. Is the SANFL still Australia's best State League competition?

Absolutely. Off the field the SANFL remains the standard to which the WAFL and VFL enviously aspire.

And, on the park, the Croweaters have won their past three State games against the Sandgropers – including two at Perth's Optus Stadium – to move ahead of their western rivals 49-48 overall. sanfl.com.au

IT’S ALL IN BLACK AND WHITE

BY PETER CORNWALL

Tyson Goldsack will be right at home as new coach of Port Adelaide’s SANFL side.

He could hardly be more comfortable wearing the black and white of the Magpies, after a 13-season AFL career with Collingwood. And three years at Alberton as a development coach and SANFL leadership player has been a good grounding into the heritage and culture of Port Adelaide.

A Collingwood premiership player, who tallied 165 games with the AFL Magpies, Goldsack is proud to coach SA’s Magpies – and his style will be similar to the man who coached his AFL flag, Mick Malthouse.

“My style is probably more relationships built,” Goldsack, 35, said. “I think I have a pretty good eye for football but I think I will lean pretty hard on the relationships, the energy side of things and try to get the best out of my players by being positive. “(Malthouse) was probably in that boat. He was very good with his relations with players, that was his strength, not taking anything away from his coaching craft and his knowledge of the game but he got the best out of his players by having those individual relationships with us all. He drew a pretty hard line when he had to but when you got him away from the heat of the moment he was really supportive. I see myself a little bit in that vein as well.”

After Goldsack finished at Collingwood in 2019, he knew he was moving to SA because his wife Chelsea is from Adelaide. It didn’t take Port long to snaffle him as a development coach and leadership player at the Magpies. “I thought I still had a little bit left player-wise – it suited me really nicely.” Covid restrictions ruled Port out of the 2020 SANFL season but Goldsack played 10 games for the Magpies in 2021.

Now the time is right to step up his coaching role. “I thought (the SANFL job) was the natural progression in my coaching. It came at a pretty good time, having three years at development level, now to have a team to run your own ship a little bit.”

Goldsack, who played with Pakenham and Gippsland under-18s before in 2007 winning the Harry Collier Trophy as Collingwood’s best first-year player, loved his time with the Magpies. “We had our run of finals games early in my career, then we had a lean patch, then finished off with finals and a grand final, so I got to experience the highs and lows of the AFL – with injuries, illness and some form slumps. So I think I’ve experienced quite a bit,” he said.

He experienced an “emotional rollercoaster” in the last fortnight of the 2010 season.

The clash that became the first grand final, an unforgettable draw against St Kilda, “was a low point

without doubt”. “I played the prelim final, so to play that and then get dropped, your heart sinks. To come back the following week, that was the full array of emotions.” To win the replay was the highest of the highs. “I’m obviously a big advocate for the grand final replay, not overtime!”

Malthouse handed Goldsack an early role on star Saints defender Sam Fisher where he would drift up forward – and it was here he stepped up as an unlikely first goalkicker for the grand final. “It was pretty special,” he recalled. “I started on the bench and I was literally on the ground for about 10 seconds before I took a mark. It was my first kick – I thought this was nice.” So did his Mum. She had backed him at 87/1 to kick the first goal. “She also bet on me for beston-ground, so it wasn’t a great bet by any stretch of the imagination,” Goldsack said. “She had five bucks for each. She would have usually put $1 or $2 on the Melbourne Cup and then this was basically her only other bet.”

You can bet SA’s Magpies will be firing early this season after last year’s eighth-placed finish. “We have been training really hard … our SANFL list have had a really good pre-season,” Goldsack said. “The time together is limited but we run a pretty tight program where we try to make the sessions we have really count. It’s been really solid, so we’re looking forward to the start.” sanfl.com.au

HISTOR

BIG GAME PLAYER

BY PETER CORNWALL

In the year South Australian football celebrates the 60th anniversary of one of its greatest triumphs, SANFL mourns the passing of Barrie Barbary, a shining light in the historic success.

Barbary, who died in February aged 84, was a supremely-talented wingman who was best-afield in the Croweaters’ iconic seven-point win against Victoria at the MCG in 1963 – SA’s first success against the Big V in Melbourne in 37 years.

A South Australian Football Hall of Fame inductee, Barbary was a Magarey Medallist, dual best-andfairest winner and premiership star for North Adelaide, earning a place in the Roosters' Team of the Century. He played 149 games for North between 1957-64 and 68 games with Woodville from 196770, while being a State regular with 19 appearances for SA, debuting for the Croweaters in his first league season when he was still eligible for senior colts.

Barbary’s crowning achievement was his exceptional season in 1960 when he won the Magarey Medal and the Roosters’ best-and-fairest award while starring in their premiership success.

His Magarey win was no ordinary feat. With blinding speed and silky skills, Barbary became the first wingman to win the Medal. And he achieved a feat only 25 SANFL footballers have been able to do in 125 years by winning the Magarey and playing in a premiership in the same season, the most recent being Sturt’s Zane Kirkwood in 2016, 10

sanfl.com.au

Barrie Barbary

Glenelg’s Luke Partington (2019) and the Eagles’ James Tsitas (2021).

As if that wasn’t enough, Barbary had the 54,000-strong Adelaide Oval crowd at fever pitch with a classy pick-up and magnificent drop kick goal that restored North’s lead late in the final quarter in a thrilling five-point win against Norwood. “I like to remember it went about 85 yards,” he would recall with a smile.

Barbary also is one of just five players to achieve the Magarey Medal-Mail Medal double as a citycountry champion, along with Harold ‘Dribber’ Hawke, Ron Benton, Ken Eustice and the Roosters’ 2020 Magarey winner Campbell Combe.

Clearly, Barbary was a big-game player. The VFL presented him with the O’Halloran Trophy as SA’s outstanding player against the Big V “unbeatables” in 1963 in a win considered the State’s finest of all time, more than 10,000 wildly enthusiastic fans welcoming SA’s heroes home at Adelaide Airport.

Barbary actually “snuck out the back way” to escape the bedlam. “I broke my knuckles and had my arm in a sling,” he later recalled.

“Everyone wanted to shake my hand … I was in a fair bit of pain.”

But it was worth it. The players in that SA team, though rivals most Saturday afternoons, became the greatest of mates, forming life-long bonds for their still-celebrated achievement.

Incredibly, by 1965, still at the peak of his powers having just won his second club champion award at

North, he was running around with Kybybolite in SA’s South-East.

Despite his superstar status there was never a living to be made playing SANFL footy so, when he was offered four times the £200 a year he was earning with the Roosters to coach Kyby for two seasons, he had little hesitation accepting. He won Mail Medals in 1965 and ’66 and in his second year his side was unbeaten on its way to a premiership.

Barbary expected to return to North and the Roosters promised to find him a job – but failed. Woodville wooed him with a job and, despite less on-field success than such a competitive footballer would have desired, he never regretted making the move. “I had a ball at Woodies,” Barbary said. “They were a new club and I felt I might be able to help them out a bit.” He coached the Peckers in 1972-73, star rover Ray Huppatz saying he was “very good … he put a lot of emphasis on skill … he was pretty close to the players”.

Barbary remained a passionate supporter of SANFL who thrived in a long-term role of developing young talent. He was under-17 and under19 coach at Woodville from 1975-77, then in the 1980s was the Peckers’ technical and development officer for six years and assistant coach to Rod Olsson. And he was reserves coach at Glenelg from 1978-80, taking the Bays’ into successive grand finals. The sort of big games he thrived in.

WINNING EDGE

BY PETER ARGENT

Premierships aren’t easy to come by but classy Katelyn Pope has a happy knack of being in the right place at the right time – on footy and cricket grounds. The star allrounder has already squeezed plenty into her sporting career but the 27-year-old is working hard to maintain her winning edge.

Look what she’s done in four years of footy. The left-footed ball magnet has won two SANFLW premierships with North Adelaide – in 2020 and last year – and played AFLW with West Coast in the year in between. This after kicking off in the sport with a flag at Broadview in the SAWFL in 2019.

“It was a bit of a joke with a couple of friends who came across from Broadies that we played in 30 wins in a row in those two years to start my footy career,” Pope said. “In 2020 we had a real All-Star team (at North), with the likes of ‘Hatchy’ (Anne Hatchard), Ashleigh Woodland, (Scorpions cricket teammate) Britt Perry and a young Hannah Ewings, with matchwinners on each line.

“Last year was a little different … when the final siren sounded I started crying. There were real tears of joy, as I kept thinking, ‘I can’t believe we’ve just won this’.”

Pope’s first experience dashing up and down footy ovals came in an unlikely way – as a boundary umpire. “I needed to tick off some

community service at school in Year 10, so I decided to be a boundary umpire in the under-18s for my brother’s team,” said Pope, who appeared headed for big things in cricket. “To stay fit for cricket and also earn a bit of income I moved across to the SANFL and did six years as a boundary umpire (in under-16s and under-18s). I remember travelling out to Elizabeth a fair bit and having a few long and tough days running the boundary there.”

A left-arm seam bowler and gun fielder, as a 19-year-old in 2015-16 Pope was a member of South Australia’s Women’s National Cricket League title-winning side coached by Andrea McCauley and captained by Lauren Ebsary.

“I started my cricket with Prospect as a 10-year-old and my first captain was (groundbreaking AFL umpire) Eleni Glouftsis, while my coach was Robyn Lecornu,” Pope recalled. “My heroes were Mitchell Johnson, because he was a leftarmer and Mr Cricket, Michael Hussey. I moved across to Kensington because the Prospect women’s program stopped, sadly.

When I look back on my cricket I got the best out of my abilities but I didn’t go as far as I would have liked. I really appreciated the support of Max (Andrea) McCauley in my time with the Scorpions. She was a wonderful mentor.”

Pope, the 276th capped SA women’s cricketer, debuted in a WNCL game against ACT in the summer of 2014-15 and played three WBBL seasons with the Adelaide Strikers, helping them into the finals for the first time in 201718. And she’s played in three Twenty20 titles and a 50-over SACA premiership with Kensington.

Noted for her ballwinning prowess, ability to create for the forwards and hit targets with her elite kick, Pope’s older brother, Nick, and father Phil (the executive chef at Adelaide Oval) take plenty of the credit for her skills using the ball.

“To be fair, when I went out to play football I was pretty surprised everyone didn’t kick as well as me,” she laughed.

Pope, a strength and conditioning coach in the SACA women’s elite pathways and at a gym in Kent Town, is aiming for a third SANFLW premiership with the Roosters but, averaging 21 disposals per game this season, she would love a crack at another AFLW pre-season. A broken wrist in an AFLW All-Stars match after the 2020 season was poor timing when West Coast first showed interest. She signed as an injury replacement player for 2021, tallying six games. “My first game was the local derby against Fremantle as WA was in a lockdown and that was the only team we could play.” sanfl.com.au

TORRENS UNIVERSITY SANFL U18 WRAP

BY ZAC MILBANK

A perfectly-timed volley from South Adelaide midfielder Sid Draper wasn’t enough as a desperate Norwood held on for a gritty one-point win in Round 1 of the Torrens University SANFL Under-18 competition.

Just one minute after team-mate Jack Delean converted an eyecatching mark at Flinders University Stadium, Draper put the Panthers within the barest of margins in the 17th minute of the final term with a solo effort that would make the Socceroos proud. But the Redlegs – led by Kade Maddigan (three goals) and Eamonn Cronin – hung tough to escape with the premiership points.

Cronin finished with 23 disposals and nine tackles, while Jacob Newton tallied a game-high 26 possessions.

Central District overcame a slow start to record a 12-point win against reigning premier Glenelg at X Convenience Oval.

After trailing by 16 points at the first change, the Bulldogs stormed back into the contest by booting 5.1 in the second quarter. But it was the third term which proved pivotal as Central slammed on 5.2 while

holding the Tigers to just 2.0.

Bulldog Sebastian Wauer was everywhere to register 30 disposals, six marks and two goals, while Samuel Sibbick and Riley McDonald were also prominent and Tallan Rosenzweig booted four goals. Glenelg excitement machine Ashton Moir, in line for league selection this week, did his chances of promotion no harm by booting 4.3 from 18 disposals and 10 marks.

A barnstorming 10-goal first half propelled Sturt to an impressive 39-point win against North Adelaide at Thebarton Oval.

Making the most of a significant inside-50 advantage of 51-36 for the match, the Double Blues did the damage in the second term by piling on 6.1 to the Roosters’ 1.2, opening up a 40-point lead at halftime. Captain George Pope (16 disposals), crafty Wil Thomas (16 disposals, two goals) and dashing Alex Holt (26 disposals) were key contributors. Promising North midfielder Kane McAuliffe racked up a match-high 28 disposals, while team-mate Henry Wicks chimed in with 22 possessions and two goals.

Alex Holt was Sturt’s leading possessionwinner with 26.

Woodville-West Torrens made an early statement with a 78-point win against West Adelaide at Hisense Stadium.

Restricting the Bloods to just one goal across the first three quarters, the Eagles showed off their potency as 12 players logged their name on the goalscorers’ list. Patrick Toole shone with 20 disposals, 10 marks and two goals, while Rome Burgoyne, son of Port premiership player Peter Burgoyne, tallied 27 disposals and 10 marks. Oscar Talbot, Bailey White and Carter Wright were praised by West officials for their spirit in trying to stem the tide. sanfl.com.au
