The 1890 South Australian Football Association season was the 14th season of the top-level Australian rules football competition in South Australia.

Contents

Despite protests from Gawler the 1890 Programme gave them only five home games (one each against the other clubs) and two away games in Adelaide against each of the city clubs. They forfeited both of their games against Port Adelaide at Alberton and ended up collecting the wooden spoon. The end of year report stated they had a good deal to put up with in the way of a badly arranged programme, for they were brought down to town Saturday after Saturday, and sometimes to play the same team on two successive Saturdays. Despite rumours during the season that they were going resign they voted to complete their scheduled games.

The Gawler Football Association subsequently withdrew their Senior Club from the SAFA before the beginning of 1891 season and continued its own competition with 3 local teams, the predecessor of the current Barossa Light and Gawler Football Association.

Premiership Matches

Round 1

The start of the season on 5th May was delayed due to a dispute between the Association and Burnside District Council which owned the Kensington Oval. Initially only 4 matches were programmed for Kensington Oval whilst 17 were for Adelaide Oval. Burnside counter proposed 8 for Kensington and 13 for Adelaide Oval. The matter was settled when the Association presented a revised programme of 6 matches for Kensington Oval.
Game between South Adelaide and Gawler for Kensington Oval was postponed to later in the year. [1]

After the match on Saturday while all the Gawler players were together in the train returning, enjoying themselves in a jovial manner, quite unconscious of their recent defeat, it was unanimously decided to still continue in the Association in spite of the bad treatment, and play the fixtures arranged. A good deal of dissatisfaction was expressed at the action of clubs trying to 'cadge' their players, and the climax was reached when a player selected, and who went down with the intention of helping the Gawlers, informed them that a club's supporters waited at the station with a cab, and securing him abducted him to their playing grounds, thus accounting for his non-appearance at Kensington.
At a committee meeting of the Gawlers it was decided that the match arranged for the Adelaide Oval for the holiday should be abandoned, but the players are determined to go against their executive, and therefore they will meet the Medendies oh the 26th, in the morning,according to the fixture.

  • A game was scheduled between South Adelaide and Gawler - It was Gawler's 3rd scheduled game within 7 days in Adelaide. It was reported -

The Gawlers were to have played tbe Souths, but forfeited. Their reason was that they objected to being down on tbe list to play five matohes in succession in Adelaide without one on their own ground. If they had played they would have met the South Adelaides twice on two consecutive Saturdays. This is the second time the Gawlers have forfeited this season, and it is to be hoped it will be the last, as if this sort of thing occurs frequently it will be far better for them to resign their position in the association altogether.

Medindie [33] vs Gawler at Kensington Oval - Game abandoned due to the weather and ground.
On Saturday 12 July 1890 the Gawlers journeyed to Kensington to fufil their engagement with the Medindie club. The weather was wretchedly bad, and after the Gawlers had 'stripped' and were in the field the Medindie captain refused to play, and appealed to the umpire, Mr. McIntyre, who acquiesced, and would not sanction the game owing to the bad state of the weather and the grounds, notwithstanding the fact that the Gawlers had a fully representative team on the field practising to keep themselves warm. When the result was made known to the Gawler players it was received with great dissention, and references were made to the Victorian Association, where engagements are kept whether playing in a lake or in a mud puddle.

The game between Gawler and Medindie was abandoned at half-time due to torrential rain during the 2nd quarter when all but 3 of the Gawler players had left the field. When the shower passed over the bell was rung, but only the Gawlers and the umpire came on the ground. Shortly after the captain of the Medindies appeared and a dispute arose. The Medindies claimed a draw, as they said they had been ordered off the field. The umpire then tried to persuade them, but they still refused and said tha rules were in their favor. The ground certainly was wet, and there were pools of water about, but matches have been played when it was in a worse condition. A considerable amount of argument took place in the pavilion, but the Medindies would not give way, and subsequently left the ground amid the hooting of the spectators. Gawler's team, said that the umpire stated that the ground was fit to play on, and that the Gawlers were willing to continue the game, but that the Medindies refused. The Gawler team claims the game, and the matter will be laid before the association. This game at Gawler Oval was the last South Australian league level match at the venue as Gawler then withdrew from the competition before the start of 1891 season.
