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.

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.
