1894 SAFA Grand Final
Australian football championship matches
The 1894 SAFA Grand Final refers to the concluding championship matches of the 1894 SAFA season. As Norwood and South Adelaide finished equal on premiership points, a playoff match for the premiership was required.
The Grand Final between Norwood and South Adelaide was drawn. Despite a provision for 20 minute periods of extra time in the event of a draw, the match was abandoned after full time due to darkness; the result stood and a replay was ordered. [1]
The replay was won by Norwood, with Anthony "Bos" Daly kicking the winning goal as the final bell rang. This was the first replay of a drawn Grand Final in the SANFL.
