Crack Adelaide (Centrals Club) School and Junior coaches Kevin Johns and John Spaans conducted the clinics with the assistance of several N.S.W. State players as assistant coaches. The response in most cases was very good and besides the boys there were hundreds of parents, Club Officials and school teachers observing these clinics.

However when Round 22 – the final minor round game of the season – had arrived North still had nothing to vindicate at that point except for positioning themselves perfectly on top of the premiership table and a chance to amend the previous Grand Final losses. Meeting Woodville at Prospect wasn’t going to be the Match-of-the- Round yet it commenced the start of some important individual achievements that would set the wheels in motion for an enjoyable September. The man whose afternoon was about to change forever… John Roberts! The Background North had a point to prove in 1987 and have gone about it perfectly. Their final round opposition Woodville were continuing their 1986 historic season when they reached the finals for only their second time and sat 5th with another finals series in their sights. Entering the final minor home and away game North had won 18 of their 21 matches including 15 of the past 16 contests. Apart from losing in-from defender David Wildy to a season-ending shoulder injury from a behind-the-play incident in Round 18 North had a fit squad and all were performing brilliantly. Andrew and Darren Jarman, Darel Hart and Steven Sims were the most effective and skilled midfield in the league, the defence led by Trevor Clisby and John Riley were nearly impassable and up forward Peter Bennett and recruit Craig Burton were regularly kicking goals galore.

Over the last eleven decades it has been a beacon for educational excellence. I am not an Old Modernian, but I know class when I see it and will give a snapshot to Society members and guests. I have recently visited the school, walked the corridors, listened to its leaders, admired the pieces of art that adorn the grounds and speak of enduring creativity. I have also visited the old metalwork room that is now the History Centre, a base for the Perth Modernian Society. In this place, built in 1922 and formerly the scene of much use of tools for manual arts, volunteers are now hammering out history. This is the school’s Heritage Central. There will be time for a few questions and comments from the floor. Most of us have at least driven past Mod. Here’s the chance to stop for few moments and press the pause button.

    Football great Malcolm Blight honoured with bronze statue at Adelaide Oval - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) 21/08/15 11:20 PM Football great Malcolm Blight honoured with bronze statue at Adelaide Oval Updated Fri 21 Aug 2015, 2:09pm A bronze statue of South Australian football legend Malcolm Blight has been unveiled at Adelaide Oval outside the Victor Richardson gates. Blight, who transitioned from prolific goal kicker to successful coach said he was surprised by the honour. Much loved by South Australians for leading the Adelaide Crows to back-to-back premierships, Blight is the only player to kick 100 goals in a season in both the VFL and SANL. "It's actually difficult to describe, to be honest," he said about the statue. "The first emotion when I heard about the sculpture was surprise and the second was that my football life flashed before my eyes a little." Blight joins fellow South Australians football legends Barrie Robran and Russell Ebert in bronze at the Adelaide Oval. "I like to think that if Barrie represents the north of the state and Russell represents the Riverland, I like the thought that I might represent the suburbs of Adelaide where so much grassroots footy is played.

  • A'court, BILL (West Adelaide)
    A A’COURT, BILL (West Adelaide): Acourt was placed on Oliver and to keep this man from taking his sensational marks gives a man plenty to do. Acourt did not let him do too much, and played a good game beside.1 Father of star West Adelaide ruckman of the 1950s Fred A’Court (profiled below), Bill A’Court was a strong defender who also played with West. He debuted with the club in 1909, and was a key member that same year of its winning grand final team against Port Adelaide. He went on to play in the premiership sides of 1911 and 1912 as well. From 1909 to 1915 A’Court played 83 SAFL games and kicked four goals. A’COURT, FRED (West Adelaide): Fred A’Court was a stalwart of West Adelaide sides during the club’s nightmare decade of the 1950s, when four grand finals were contested without success, all against Port Adelaide. He commenced with West in 1949, and over the ensuing 11 seasons played a total of 159 league games and kicked 110 goals. In January 1954, A’Court applied for a clearance to VFL club Richmond, claiming that, if he made the move, he would be £15 a week better off financially, but West Adelaide refused the application and he continued to play for the Blood and Tars for the remainder of his career. A tough, tireless and talented ruckman, A’Court - popularly known as ‘Boof’ - represented South Australia eight times, kicking 10 goals. AAMODT, COLIN (North Adelaide): In a brainy display of football Aamodt showed all the fleetness of foot that enabled him to run a place in a Stawell Gift.
