South Australian NFL

The South Australian National Football League was a name change for the South Australian Football League. It's not known why the name change was made.
==History==
At the time, the competing clubs were Norwood, Port Adelaide, West Torrens, North Adelaide, South Adelaide, West Adelaide, Sturt and Glenelg. During World War 2 the eight clubs joined forces to create four wartime clubs, with Port Adelaide joining West Torrens, West Adelaide joining Glenelg, Sturt joined South Adelaide and Norwood joined North Adelaide. This lasted from 1942 to 1944 before order was restored in 1945.
In 1964 Central Districts and Woodville joined the competition. In 1973 the final five was introduced. At the start of the 1991 season, Woodville and West Torrens merged. The SANFL reverted to the final four in 2003 but went back to the final five the following year. Adelaide started fielding a stand alone reserve grade team in the SANFL in 2014. In 2020 the competition was cut to eight clubs due to the COVID-19 pandemic with Adelaide not fielding their reserves and Port Adelaide joining them for the season. The finals were played as a final four for that one shortened season.
