South Australia has produced some of the game's greatest players.
Ranging from premiership captains to Brownlow medallists, the traditional football state has a proud history in the game, playing host to a competition for over a century.
Taking a look back on the best players to come from the SANFL, we've named the greatest player each club has produced for the AFL since the century began.
Here's who we've selected, along with a few honourable mentions for each SANFL club...
1. Central District
Enjoying an unprecedented era of dominance in the 2000s, Central District produced a glut of stars that shone at AFL level, but none brighter than West Coast Eagles captain Shannon Hurn.
Hurn is the second-youngest premiership winner in SANFL history, aged just 17 in the 2004 triumph before following up again in 2005.
Chalking up 333 games in a glittering career, Hurn is still the only Eagle to pass the 300-game milestone and captained the club for five years, including the 2018 premiership campaign.
An understated and unassuming half-back, Hurn was one of the competition's most effective defensive rebounders, earning two All-Australian blazers in 2018 and 2019.
Also in the discussion are premiership stars Travis Varcoe, Daniel Menzel and Sam Butler as other prominent names to emerge from the Doggies.
