2014 introduced a number of changes to the league. The size of the league increased from 9 clubs to 10 clubs, after the South Australian Football Commission granted the Australian Football League's Adelaide Football Club a licence to field a reserves team in the competition.[2] Adelaide Oval replaced Football Park as headquarters of the SANFL, resulting in the renovated venue hosting one SANFL minor round match (Anzac Day) and all six SANFL finals matches.[3] The season was shortened to finish a week before the AFL Grand Final, instead of a week after, as had been the case for most years since 1980.

Norwood were the premiers for the 2014 season, after they defeated Port Adelaide by 4 points in the Grand Final in front of a crowd of 38,644, the largest such crowd since 1999. It was the third consecutive premiership for Norwood and their 30th overall.[4]

Sturt, South Adelaide and Woodville-West Torrens also made the top (final) five teams and participated in the finals series. North Adelaide, Central District, Adelaide, West Adelaide and Glenelg all missed the top five, with Glenelg finishing bottom to record its 17th wooden spoon.

Premiership season

edit

Highlights of the season fixture include:[5][6]

  • A shortened 18-round home and away competition, in which each team plays each other twice
  • A record 17 night matches, mostly staged in the early part of the season
  • Two Showdown matches between Adelaide Football Club and Port Adelaide
  • Two Anzac Day matches, including the Grand Final rematch between Norwood vs. North Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval
  • First SANFL Grand Final at Adelaide Oval since 1973, to be played at an earlier than usual date on Sunday September 21
  • Seven Network replaces ABC as sole television broadcaster; televises one live “match of the round” every week as well as all finals
  • The official season motto was announced by the SANFL as: This is Football.[7]

Notes

edit
  1. ^ Although 2014 marks the 139th year since 1877 (including 1877 as a counted year and being the first year of competition in the SANFL), the 2014 season is the 132nd since 1877 due to 6 cancelled seasons in 1916-1918 and 1942-1944 due to World Wars I and II. See List of SANFL premiers for confirmation.
