Great Taste.

Low Carb & Mid-Strength.

How Good.

SA GREAT

BY ANDREW CAPEL, THE ADVERTISER The SANFL claimed State bragging rights and continued its dominance of the VFL at Glenelg Oval last Saturday, overcoming a slow start to win a low-scoring encounter by 14 points.

After trailing a quicker, sharper Victorian side by 13 points at quarter-time, the Croweaters lifted their intensity and pressure to control the rest of the game, restricting the Vics to only four goals after the first change. In the first SA-Victoria clash since 2016, the home side stretched its winning run against the Big V to five games. The SANFL now has a 7-1 win-loss record against the VFL, with its only loss coming in 2002.

“The beauty of the win was it was State footy played really tough by both teams,” SA coach Jade Rawlings said. “We didn’t start well and to see our boys adjust a few things and play in more of a manner that is reflective of South Australia and get the result is bloody satisfying.

“They hit us pretty hard early and when we rose to the intensity of the game it looked more like an SA game.

We got a little spike around the ball and I thought we looked pretty dangerous forward of the ball and our backline was excellent.”

VFL coach Zane Littlejohn was proud of the effort of his group. “We were tough in the contest and had an opportunity to win but didn’t quite get there in the end,” he said.

“Ultimately we weren’t able to sustain our early advantage for long enough but that’s a credit to SA,

they are a great footy side. These games are won on moments and we probably didn’t have enough big moments compared to SA. But it was a great game and it showed State footy is healthy.”

Playmaking Central District half-back Jez McLennan (24 disposals, eight marks) won the Fos Williams Medal as SA’s best player. His Bulldogs teammate Harry Grant (25 disposals, five clearances) also impressed, along with wingman Harrison Wigg and key forwards Lachie Hosie (four goals) and Jackson Callow.

SA had been inspired by a speech from 1994 State-ofOrigin captain Chris McDermott. “His speech was unbelievable – I felt like running through a brick wall after listening to him,” McLennan said. “It was inspiring and uplifting, so we took that into the game to ensure we would not walk away with any regrets – and that’s the way we played.”

MATCH PREVIEWS

BY PETER CORNWALL

NORWOOD V GLENELG There’s always excitement bubbling around when these sides are about to clash, particularly under lights at The Parade where there’s certain to be a bumper crowd and electric atmosphere. And the anticipation around this Round 2 match stepped up another notch after Norwood and Glenelg made stunning starts to the season, the Legs beating Sturt by 27 points and the Tigers crunching Port by 66. These blockbuster matches pulled in a total of more than 9000 fans in a superb opening to the season and the premiers of the past two years will ramp it up further in this mouth-watering match-up.

Did we see Glenelg’s premiership hangover come and go in 24 minutes? While Redlegs fans won’t need to be reminded their side lost their first eight games last season after their sensational 2022 flag heist, the Bays conceded the first 2.2 against Port and were trailing by 4

15 points after 24 minutes and looking a little scratchy. But they rammed on the next five goals to shake off the cobwebs and finished up with a cricket score – 23.12 (150) – with Ken Farmer Medallists Lachie Hosie and Liam McBean bagging five goals each and gun midfielder Matthew Allen (25 touches) and young gun Archie Lovelock three apiece. Norwood may not have hit the scoreboard in the same way but it could hardly have been more impressive against last year’s grand finalists the Blues, its ferocity and pressure outstanding as it kicked seven goals to just three with the game on the line in the second half. Despite having more of the ball, Norwood also won the tackle count 93-63 – impressive Essendon VFL recruit Billy Cootee, ruck ace Harry Boyd and skipper Jacob Kennerley had 27 between them – in a show of strength that will have Glenelg knowing it will need to be at its

premiership-winning best to grab the W.

EAGLES V NORTH Two guernseys but one bright future. Woodville-West Torrens, under new coach Sam Jacobs, saluted two heritages by wearing the iconic West Torrens guernsey with the gold eagle in the first half and Woodville’s original league jumper in the second in an impressive dismantling of West Adelaide at upgraded Maughan Thiem Kia Oval. It was a spectacular show on all fronts as the Eagles booted the last eight goals to romp to an impressive 20.13 to thump the Bloods by 64 points. Jacobs was excited how his team was shaping and looking for a strong start and he sure got it as Adam D’Aloia showed he was ready to take the next step with 32 touches, Riley Knight was quickly back into the swing of it with 26 and Luke McKay, from the Canberra Demons, snagged five goals.

North will be desperate to get on the board after having heaps of the footy but not putting it on the scoreboard against Central. The Roosters had 87 more disposals, 22 more marks, 12 more tackles and eight more clearances than the Bulldogs but lost by 27 points.

Coach Jacon Surjan will be looking for some improved decision-making and less skill errors to make the most of having the footy, while Roosters fans will be excited to see some more magic from Nigel Lockyer, who conjured four goals against the Dogs.

CENTRAL V ADELAIDE Matthew Wright was put through the wringer before being delighted to snare a win in his first game in charge of the Crows. With Mick Godden on AFL duties, Wright was under the pump from the start against South at Noarlunga as the Panthers booted the first four goals of the game and led by 33 points in time-on of the second quarter. But the new mentor would have been delighted his side, featuring nine debutants, never conceded, kicking four of the last five goals of the game to win by five points. Billy Dowling, who had 34 touches, made the most of his last one – a stunning long bomb matchwinning goal from outside 50m.

As a coach in his fourth league season and having seen continual improvement Bulldogs boss Paul

Thomas is at the point where he expects wins – and that’s what his men delivered in a testing clash first-up at Prospect. Former VFL Brisbane Lion Wilson Barry made a strong first impression with a team-best 24 touches while Port Melbourne recruit Jake Gasper was lively around the goals with 3.1 as the northern suburbs club continues to head north.

SOUTH V STURT Panthers coach Jarrad Wright must be wondering if he’s walked under a ladder some time lately with a black cat sauntering across his path. After a raft of retirements from footy and club greats after last season, then some shocking luck with injuries in the pre-season, the Panthers set the pace for much of the season-opener against Adelaide, charging more than five goals clear in the first half.

Even after Billy Dowling goaled at the 26-minute-mark of the last quarter for the Crows to edge seven points clear, South missed two set shots in the final few minutes, a super start to the season slipping away. Wright rightly was proud of his young team’s fight and there are plenty of positives but, like opposing coach Martin Mattner, he won’t want it to turn into a 0-2 start to the season. Mattner would have been disappointed with the way Norwood took the game away from the Blues in the second half at The Parade and the calf injury to superstar

midfielder Tom Lewis added to the pain. Will Snelling made a strong start in the two blues with 26 disposals and nine tackles but he and inspirational skipper James Battersby will be under the pump with Lewis sidelined.

WEST V PORT A draw. That’s what we at the Footy Budget reckon would be a great result – or lack of one – for the big clash at Waikerie. After all, if the Russell Ebert Trophy is on the line and brothers Adam and Hamish Hartlett are trying to get their hands on the silverware, it might be interesting to see how they decide who takes it home if the game ends up a draw. They are typically competitive siblings but we’re not necessarily expecting it to be decided like their battles when they were growing up together. At the SANFL season launch at Adelaide Oval Hamish, in his first year as Magpies coach, recalled how he and second-year Bloods boss Adam used to put on their cricket gloves and helmets and crack in. The opening round didn’t give us too many clues who might win this one – the brothers who are the greatest of mates and constantly swap notes had pretty similar experiences – West losing to the Eagles by 64 points, Port to Glenelg by 66. The gloves will be off this week – it will be a tough, hard fight that will go right to the final bell. sanfl.com.au

NO EASY CALL FOR NEW BLUE

BY STEVE BARRETT

Will Snelling lives five minutes from the city, attends Adelaide University, grew up in the inner-southern suburbs and his parents’ house is a drop punt away from Unley.

The 26-year-old played with Will Coomblas at Mercedes College, under-age footy against Joel Thiele and, from afar, always held James Battersby in particularly high esteem. Snelling’s switch to Sturt made a heap of sense – but that didn’t make saying goodbye to West Adelaide any easier.

“It was a strange off-season, being in limbo for a fair while and not knowing my fate until around the (November 2023) rookie draft,” said Snelling, who was delisted by Essendon at the end of last year.

“In that interim period I’d spoken to Westies, then entertained Sturt on a bit of a whim to see what was out there.

“After meeting with Sturt I was ultra-impressed with their facilities, their program and the sustained success they’ve had over time. They (the Bloods) were obviously disappointed but they were professional about it. There were a combination of factors which they couldn’t control – but it wasn’t an easy call.”

Arguably the highest-profile SANFL recruit of the summer, Snelling burst onto the scene in a memorable 2015 when he was SA’s under-18 captain, an All-Australian, the youngest member of West’s drought-breaking league premiership team and rookiedrafted by Port Adelaide.

The 175cm pocket rocket played one AFL game for the Power in 2016 but spent the majority of his three seasons at Alberton lining up for the Magpies.

“The funny thing is I really had no clear aspirations to get back into the AFL after my time at Port,” reflected Snelling, who was delisted at the end of 2018 after winning the Bob McLean Medal as the Magpies’ best-and-fairest. “I was a bit cynical about my prospects, being a smaller player ... that part was

hammered home when I was let go.

I came back to Westies and just wanted to enjoy myself and play my best footy.”

He did exactly that in 2019. In his last four outings as a Blood, Snelling collected 10 Magarey Medal votes while averaging a staggering 34.8 disposals and 13.5 tackles.

That led to him being picked up by the Bombers, who he had supported as a kid while wearing his hero James Hird’s long-sleeved No.5.

“It was really out of the blue and all a bit too good to be true,” said Snelling, who snapped a 1056-day drought – the longest span between a player’s first and second AFL match – when he made the first of his 64 appearances with Essendon.

“I’d spoken to them (Bombers) once, for about five minutes on the phone ... they were the only club to really consider me. It was an awesome experience and I looked more favourably than cynically on it (AFL career) after that.”

Predominantly a pressure-applying high half-forward, Snelling’s best AFL campaign was 2021, leading Essendon in tackles per game and finishing third behind Zach Merrett and Darcy Parish in the best-andfairest count. Calf injuries wrecked Snelling’s 2022 before he finished up at Windy Hill 12 months later.

The Bombers’ loss is the Double Blues’ gain, the addition of Snelling to an already gilt-edged midfield spearheaded by captain Battersby and tenacious Tom Lewis a frightening proposition for opposition engine rooms.

“Playing more midfield again is really exciting after what I’d been used to at Essendon,” said Snelling, who works part-time in Sturt’s offfield administrative team and has almost finished his health and medical science degree. “There will be a bit of time forward as well – it’s good to have that flexibility.

Given Sturt played in the grand final last year, we feel we can contend again.” sanfl.com.au

HARTLETT V HARTLETT

BY PETER ARGENT AND PETER CORNWALL

It will just be Hamish Hartlett’s second game as a league coach but he has already been thrown headlong into a family rivalry with a prestigious trophy on the line.

Just two years ago Hamish was working alongside older brother Adam at West Adelaide.

Now, after starting as Port Adelaide coach with a 66-point loss against reigning premier Glenelg, he comes up against the Bloods, coached by Adam, with nothing less than the Russell Ebert Trophy up for grabs.

So these self-confessed footy nuffies, who love discussing the game with each other and greatly admire what each other has achieved in the game, haven’t had as much to say to each other as their clash looms on Sunday at Waikerie Oval.

Hamish has been well blooded to become a successful coach after an outstanding playing career at Port Adelaide in the AFL – and with Westies in the SANFL. The gun midfielder played 193 games and kicked 77 goals for the Power between 2009-21, winning a Showdown Medal in 2014. An outstanding junior sportsman, he was a member of West’s under-17 premiership side in 2006 and made his league debut in 2007, the Powerade Breakthrough Player award nomination in just his seventh senior game, before being drafted with the No. 4 pick to the Power.

Hartlett returned to West Adelaide in 2022, winning the Bloods’ best-and-fairest award, while also serving as the club’s youth development manager.

“Adam was midfield coach when I went back to West Adelaide in 2022, under ‘Gotchy’ (Brad Gotch) and we worked well together. In the last couple of games of that season, ‘Gotchy’ took a back seat and Adam took control on game day.”

As Adam stepped up impressively as the Bloods’ senior coach last year, Hamish took on a full-time position in Port Adelaide’s men’s program as a development coach, where he worked with the club’s emerging defenders.

“I started my coaching with Port Adelaide in the AFLW in 2022, as their defensive coach,” Hartlett said. “Last year I worked under Tyson Goldsack and, with his promotion (to the AFL side’s defensive coach), I took the role of the Magpies’ SANFL head coach. This position has certainly come a little quicker than anticipated.”

He said coming up against his brother was an exciting prospect, saying they are “competitive people”.

“We have a close and strong relationship,” Hamish said.

“We were best men at each other’s weddings. Anyone who has a sibling knows there is a unique competitiveness between brothers … and I was always in a hurry to catch Adam!”

Hamish also suggested there will be a little wager between the Hartlett lads, along the lines of a family dinner depending on the result.

“Adam and I have always bounced ideas off each other and that will be no different going forward,” he said. “It will stop for game day, but that’s all.”

It has been a rare occurrence across 147 years of SANFL football when brothers have been league coaching rivals. Notably, legendary Port Adelaide coach Fos Williams came up against youngest brother Glynn. It happened in 1960 when Fos had a year at South Adelaide and tackled Glynn’s Sturt side. The pair had played together in West Adelaide’s 1947 grand final triumph against Norwood.

Hamish is learning plenty from the people around him.

“One of the great things is the support I have around me,” he said. “Ken (Hinkley) always has his door open, while Chad Cornes and Josh Carr have been strong sounding boards, especially having coached at SANFL league level themselves. Chad’s passion is what permeates from him. ‘Carry’ is a great relationship builder and level-headed under pressure. Ken is very good at motivating people.”

Along with his commitments at Port last year, Hamish managed to play a handful of games for Kingscote Hounds in the five-team Kangaroo Island Football League. Kingscote won a tight grand final against Western Districts by 12 points after trailing at halftime. Playing alongside fellow SANFL players Peter Rolfe and Roland Ah Chee, it was Hartlett’s first premiership success since his junior days at West.

“I’d like to play a senior game alongside Adam,” Hamish said. “He played a couple of games with ‘Schmidty’ (2015 Jack Oatey Medallist Chris Schmidt) last year at Eudunda-Robertstown. If our schedules work that would be great but naturally there are bigger priorities at the minute.”

Right now, the first is the Russell Ebert Trophy, which Port Adelaide has won in its first two seasons – in 2022 at Loxton Oval by 24 points and last season by 17 points. The game is held as a tribute to four-time Magarey Medallist Ebert, Port Adelaide’s games recordholder, with 392. He remained close to his heritage in the Riverland until his passing in November 2021.

Ebert’s junior football was played at Loxton Tigers before having a season of senior footy with Waikerie Magpies.

Before Sunday’s Russell Ebert Tribute Match at Waikerie at 2.10pm, the Riverland Superdogs face Peninsula Magpies at 10.15am, followed by Waikerie under-13s against SAPSASA Riverland from 12.15pm.

ADAM SAYS …

From the time the SANFL draw was released Adam Hartlett has been looking forward to tackling younger brother Hamish in the Round 2 clash in Waikerie.

“It’s going to be fun,” West coach Adam, 37, said of taking on Hamish, 33, and his Magpies team. “I’m already exchanging notes with him. We are footy nuffies. We love it.”

The brothers see the game much the same way. “We are very aligned in how we like a style of play to look,” said Adam, noting how proud he has been following his sibling’s career. “He’s done so well. It’s funny, we have conversations and he says, ‘I look up to you’, I’ll be like, ‘Bro, you played 13 years at AFL level, played 190 games, you’re coaching in the AFL, I look up to you’.”

Adam, who played 11 AFL games with Carlton in 2007-09 and was West Adelaide premiership vicecaptain in 2015, said: “I’m always picking his brain.”

So what about the big clash in Waikerie? “It’s cool. I reckon we’ll be pretty tight-lipped leading into the game though,” Adam said. “It’s all good … but obviously you want to win.” sanfl.com.au

HISTOR

HAVING A BALL

BY NEIL J SMITH

Some of the most intriguing photographs in the collection at the SANFL History Centre are the early shots of footballers in their uniforms. Most are team photos but other examples provide a different insight – Sturt stars Freddy Odgers and Billy Mayman at training shows the footballs used in 1921 were considerably larger than current balls.

The Centre also has an extensive collection of footballs, although none is especially old. Some research suggests the oldest is in fact a white Faulkner that was won as a ‘door prize’ by Chris Halbert at the 1966 Magarey Medal presentation. She recalls there were few women at the awards night in those days. It has some precious signatures, gleaned by Chris on the night, including Len Fitzgerald, Bob 10

sanfl.com.au

Sturt’s Freddy Odgers and Billy Mayman in 1921.

The ball signed by Magarey Medal greats in 1966.

Hank, ‘Shine’ Hosking, Ian McKay, Alick Lill, Dave Boyd and her husband, John Halbert. Autographed footballs feature prominently in the collection, which is largely displayed hanging from the ceiling in ‘onion bags’.

Then there are more displayed on wooden stands, such as the Burley with signatures of grand final field umpires from 1955-99. There are some well-known names including Bob Schofield, Max O’Connell, Ken Aplin, Des Foster, Rick Kinnear, Ken Cunningham, Laurie Argent, Murray Ducker and Max Hall.

There are footballs from State games, from finals, that have been decorated and a footy autographed

by North Adelaide women’s team used in the 2017 grand final. There are Sherrins, Faulkners, Burleys, maybe even a ‘Lyrebird’ and a

‘Lindsay Head Special’ that was “distributed by John Mehaffeys”.

Interestingly, the oldest ball is one of the oldest objects in the SANFL History Centre collection – a small gold replica football presented to South Australian captain George Downs after the first intercolonial game between a South Australian representative team and a Victorian team in 1877. The South Australian Advertiser on Monday 13 August 1877 shed more light about the game: “Mr George E Downs founded the Victorian team [in South Australia] in 1874, and was the captain of the first interstate team to play in Melbourne, ie the Victorians v Melbourne. (Soon after the SA team’s name was changed to South Australia).

“A round ball was used and each team consisted of 20 players.”

She’s back and having a ball again.

Glenelg midfield superstar Jess Bates has continued from where she left off in her return to SANFLW ranks this year.

After last year dominating with Collingwood in the VFLW, Bates is leading the way with most disposals, clearances, tackles and ranking points in the SANFLW this season. And there’s already talk the 2022 SANFLW fairest and most brilliant medal winner can repeat the feat this year.

With 155 disposals (31 average) she is 35 ahead of West’s Zoe Venning and 39 clear of Sturt young gun India Rasheed.

Her 56 tackles (11 average) is seven ahead of the Eagles’ Poppy Waterford. She has 39 clearances, next best Sturt’s Isobel Kupier on 26. And she’s averaging 138 ranking points per game. She has amassed 688 to lead South’s Nikki Nield (568) and Sturt’s Rasheed (545).

There’s simply no stopping her. In 2022 she led SANFLW for disposals, tackles, clearances, kicks, handballs and ranking points. And last year she led the VFLW in disposals, kicks and handballs and was named captain of the VFLW Team of the Year.

And she’s won club best-andfairests in the past three seasons, two with the Tigers and one with Collingwood.

Bates is happy to be back home at the Bay and while she’s dominating the numbers again, the only number she’s concerned about is trying to win a second flag, after playing a key role in Glenelg’s 2021 premiership.

UNDER-18 WRAP

ZAC MILBANK | TWITTER @ZACMILBANK

BY ZACBYMILBANK Woodville-West Torrens rocketed to top of the SANFL Under-18 premiership table with a convincing 56-point win against Norwood at Maughan Thiem Kia Oval.

Unbeaten with a healthy percentage of 65.2, the Eagles were never seriously troubled by the Redlegs as they led at every change while earning 68 more disposals for the match. Tate Delmenico (21 disposals, 12 marks), Jack Cook (27 disposals) and captain Harry Dodd (21) were dominant as Jett Hasting booted three goals.

Norwood’s Jake Hill collected 24 disposals and booted two goals while teammate Ned Bowman kicked two goals and snared an incredible overhead mark in the final quarter.

Central District negotiated a late surge from Sturt to hold on for a 16-point win at Thebarton Oval.

Leading at every change and seemingly headed for victory, the Bulldogs suddenly found their lead cut to just two points when Jasper Maher kicked truly for the Double Blues in the 15th minute of the final term. But majors to Enrique Mazzeo and Tallan Rosenzweig ensured Kyle Jenner’s charges would secure the victory, as Ryan Ellis-Lane (36 disposals) and Dyson Sharp (32) found plenty of the ball. Sturt had Jett Dahlitz lead the way on the stats sheet with 20 disposals, while Ned Atkinson continued to hit the scoreboard, kicking 3.3.

North Adelaide midfielder Sam Cumming continues to set the competition alight after another stunning display set up a 16-point win against West Adelaide at Maughan Thiem Kia Oval.

After earning the Round 1 SANFL U18 MVP nomination, Cumming racked up a game-high 31 possessions and seven marks while also hitting the scoreboard with two

goals. Cumming’s team-mates Louie Montgomery (18 disposals) and Evan Bradley (three goals) were also instrumental in the win. West was well served by Ky Burgoyne – the son of Port and Hawthorn star Shaun Burgoyne – with 21 disposals, while Lachlan Slattery and Lucas White (18 disposals, 10 marks) worked hard.

Glenelg burst out of the blocks to secure a comfortable 29-point win against South Adelaide at Thebarton Oval.

Booting the opening five goals, the Tigers restricted the Panthers to just one behind in the first quarter en route to securing their third successive win. Silky left-footer Lucas Camporeale did plenty of damage with his 23 disposals while team-mates Harry Ramm and Angus Clarke also received praise from the Bays’ coaching staff. South’s consistent ball magnet Phoenix Hargrave tallied 23 possessions and a goal as his captain Jacob Sheean (20 disposals) and Cohen Shortridge (19 disposals and a goal) battled valiantly. sanfl.com.au
