I could do with a good clean out, I asked one bloke why he was refusing to do a national survey, his reply was "There's no point, I won't be here in 2 years time"

I chimed in with "really, you're going to make us wait that long?"

He thought I was joking as I had a beaming smile on my face at the time. The dude is about as useful as being two people short.

To save everyone a click...

The Adelaide Footy League has played host to some of the state’s best local talent and clubs over the years and season 2024 was no exception.

A number of outfits achieved historic success or continued reigns over their divisions, but which clubs were the best of the bunch?

It may be an impossible question to answer given the variance in quality of football played across the divisions.

No-one would consider that a club from division seven would beat a side in division one if they were to go head-to-head.

But, when comparing clubs as the best performed we have to take into account how they fared relative to the skill level around them.

At the risk of being ridiculed, we have tried to answer that seemingly unanswerable question as we rank the top 30 performing clubs of the 2024 AdFL season.

For our ranking system, we’ve graded some teams based on their records in their own comps rather than trying to compare them across other divisions.

So a club that dominated a lower div may rank higher than some clubs from a higher div even though the higher division’s team would surely win should the two ever play against each other.

Some teams did outrank others due to their performances in a stronger division, despite not coming away with the premiership.


Here are our rankings from 30 to 1.

30. OSB LONSDALE
(Division seven)

Finish: Runners-up

Veteran forward Trevor Rigney turned back the clock as the Lions finished second in division seven and made the grand final to earn promotion to div six.

Recorded 15 wins and just two losses in the minor round before falling to Para Hills by a kick in the big dance.

29. MARION
(Division five)

Finish: Third

The Rams were strong in 2024 after a successful 2023 season which saw the side achieve promotion from div six.

Finished with 12 wins and defeating Greenacres in the semi final to book a prelim final clash with Colonel Light Gardens.

28. GOODWOOD
(Division two)

Finish: Sixth

Goodwood finished two wins short of finals in division two after suffering relegation from div one at the end of 2023.

The Saints still achieved some strong wins throughout the year and will be a side to watch in 2025.

27. ST PETER’S OC
(Division one)

Finish: Eighth

A major upset win over top spot Glenunga in round 17 ensured safety from relegation for SPOC in division one.

Saints fielded a relatively young side throughout 2024 and did well to remain in the top competition.

26. MORPHETTVILLE PARK
(Division four)

Finish: Fourth

Led by division four medallist Alex Barns, Morphettville Park improved on season 2023 to finish fourth on the ladder and make it to the second week of finals.

The Roos won 12 minor round games and defeated Hectorville by 19 points in the elimination final.

25. PARA HILLS
(Division seven)

Finish: Premiers

The Big Reds bounced back from finals disappointment in 2023 to win an epic grand final against OSB Lonsdale in division seven.

(Division three)

(Division four)

Finish: Runners-up

The Dragons showed major improvement throughout 2024 and topped their season off with a grand final appearance and promotion to division three.

Sacred Heart OC performed well throughout the minor round in the top division of the Adelaide Footy League and produced a strong season despite more finals disappointment.

Playing-coach Alex Cailotto’s side racked up 13 wins to finish second on the ladder but would eventually crash out of finals with losses to Port District and Payneham Norwood Union.

Gloria Jean’s buying CIBO.

CIBO went down the toilet after the original owners sold out over 10 years ago, but now rebranding as Gloria Jean’s will finally kill them off.
