There was no competition during the First world war so surely they need to wait another 4 years to celebrate 100 seasons.

It is there 101st season.
Next month is the start of their 101st season.
They can celebrate 101 complete years this time next year.
Just like i celebrated my 50th last September at the start of my 51st year.
Just like the SANFL celebrated their century in 1977 and the state celebrated the Jubilee in 1986.
And you're correct. 1900 to 1999 is 99 years. We celebrated the new century at the start of 2000 just after midnight when it was 100 years.
Footy clubs that celebrate a year too soon shit me, at least the Bays have done the right thing this time.

Its production quality is wonderful and exposes the professionalism that goes into an SANFL club. Brilliant to watch well done SAFC.
