1984 - Norwood become 1st senior team to win premiership from 5th place.

Still just an ugly rumour...

i can verify & he kicked some of the goals with a 'broken ankle' it must've been a great doctor in their change rooms when he went off because as we know he ran 'like a 2 year old' when he came back on, infact it was the biggest comeback the world has seen since lazirus

All the best for your Media Guide Phil.

1973 - SANFL adopt final 5 system for major round matches - used it every year since except 2003 when it reverted back to final 4 for one season.

1975 - SANFL commenced playing finals matches on Sundays.

The years that various different finals systems operated.

ie; change from round robin, to McIntyre four, to McIntyre five etc

(I don't know those years by the way, but someone obviously will)

1931 was the first year under the McIntyre Final 4 system

The same for Magarey Medal voting changes

1929-38; 1945 - 5-3-1 system
1939-41; 1946-77; 1986-current: 3-2-1 system
1978-85: Double 3-2-1 system (both field umpires award a set of votes)

[spell_check]

Ebert's record tally in '76 under the single voting 3,2,1 system

Awarding of retrospective Magarey Medals for previous ties

42 votes, 10 3's and 6 2's

1998 the Medals were awarded retrospectively

Also could be added:
1953 - Norwood and North play the only match for premiership points outside of South Australia, at the SCG. 19,702 people saw North win 19.15 to 15.15.
1954 - Stan Wickham's bicycle ride onto Norwood Oval before the match occured in Round 15

And Phil, Head's 300th game was brought up in 1969.

Someone else called Dan Moriaty - I would add that anyone scoring 3 MM's (whether or not they be in succession) be worthy of a mention.

Maybe something about zoning. The very early city zones, then the country zoning in the 70's.
