The South Australian Football League (SANFL) has honored four exceptional individuals with its highest honor: Erin Phillips, Bruce McAvaney, Neil Button, and Tony Burgan. Erin Phillips, a former Port Adelaide and Adelaide Crows player, becomes the first woman inducted into the South Australian Football Hall of Fame. The Magarey Medal for the best and fairest player was won by Nik Rokahr of Norwood, who recorded one of the highest vote tallies in the medal's history.
