1974 Grand Final Sturt 9 16 70 d Glenelg 8 7 55 highlights including first half

Black and white highlights from TV coverage of the 1974 grand final. The first grand final staged at Football Park.
Match report:
This was the first Grand Final played at Football Park, the new home of SANFL football. As the ground was nowhere near completion, it wasn’t protected from the elements and a strong wind blew down the ground towards the golf course end.
Sturt used the wind early and led by 40 points at ¼ time. By half time they led by 12 points and were looking good until a strong 3rd term by Glenelg into the breeze saw Sturt leading by only 5 points at ¾ time.
With Glenelg kicking with a strong breeze in the final term it was looking very much like a Tigers flag, but Sturt hung on bravely and ran out winners by 15 points.
Rick Davies was best for Sturt and Peter Marker best for the Tigers.
