dbo:abstract
  • The South Australia state football team is the representative side of South Australia in the sport of Australian rules football. South Australia has a proud history in interstate football, having a successful historical record. South Australia won the second National Football Carnival in 1911 and won two out of the four Interstate Carnivals in the State of Origin era, including the last two. South Australia has an intense and long rivalry with Victoria. The rivalry was characterised by the catchcry in South Australia called "Kick a Vic" and fans would bring signs of the cry to the games. The South Australia and Victoria rivalry was characterised by long-time South Australian player Andrew Jarman, who has said "it was the mother of all battles". Some of the games between South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia in the 1980s and 1990s have been described as "some of greatest games in the history of Australian football". The rivalry with Victoria stems from before State of Origin started, when the standard rules prior to 1977 was that all VFL players played interstate football for Victoria. As most of the country's best players played in the VFL, Victoria dominated the pre-State of Origin era, it created a culture of disdain towards Victoria. Another component of the rivalry is a historical feeling in South Australia that Victoria doesn't rate any player or league outside Victoria. Another contributing factor is a feeling in South Australia that Victorians think they own the game. (en)
