South did get the rub in that first term. 2 goals from questionable frees, and a denied mark to Glenelg costing them a probable goal... but I thought the umps swung behind Glenelg in the second. In retrospect, they did seem to favour whichever team was kicking to the north. Odd.
Any win at Noarlunga is a good win, given the Bays record there, but South did have their chances. Could have put the Tigers away by 3/4 time if they'd capitalised when they were in charge; or at the least would have turned the final term into a struggle.
The burger with the lot from the BBQ on the hill might be the best burger in the SANFL. Shame that only 1100-odd punters turned up to sample the wares. Was the coronation pre-show that much of a drawcard? And will South Adelaide re-name themselves after their new mascot ... The Cupcakes?
