Congratulations to Harry Morbey who ran out Saturday for his 50th A Grade match for the Devils at Echunga last Saturday.
One of the hardest working lads off the field with his work rate, Harry has also given everything back to the Club since joining the Senior ranks with helping out with juniors and Auskick. What a champ!
Harry made his way through juniors as a star key forward, playing multiple stints at Sturt, he has since found a new home in defence.
A Devil since under 8s, Harry has played in an astonishing 5 Premierships at the Devs, including the B2B U18 Premierships in 19/20 and 2022 B Grade Premiership. WOW! Gunning for him to add another to the tally this year that’s for sure
Congratulations on you 50 mate, always giving ‘em Hell out there
Still one big game out, it is with great excitement we can announce, Senior Womens Coach Ryan Skouborg WILL BE BACK with the Devils in season 2025
Skully has been such a welcomed addition to the candy stripe family! Whilst still fulfilling his SANFLW commitments, he has left no stone unturned to deliver everything to his own community club team, and the female program at the Devils.
Give ’em Hell with your Devs this Sunday mate, we will all be out there to back you 🔥
The lovely Sue was back this week for 💯 draws and we have done ALL rounds of the 💯 Club R12-18 were drawn at Reunion Day. If you haven’t heard from us yet, expect comms shortly.
Remember if you win in the minor rounds, your ball stays out of the barrel now until the major rounds – which means they go back in the draw now ready for Senior Presentation Nights final draws!
We would like to thank Bruce Dawes, who did us the honour of tossing the commemorative Life Member Coin for the match against Lobethal on Saturday 10 August 2024 whilst joining his mates for reunion day.
Bruce played his entire junior and senior career at Mt Lofty, and with 362 senior club games, is still the current record holder for the Devils. Bruce won the A Grade Best and Fairest in 1996 and was an A Grade Premiership player in 2006 and 2007, later adding 2 Premierships in the B Grade and one in the C Grade. He then went on to coach our A Grade between 2014 and 2016, becoming a Premiership Coach in 2014 and being recognised as the Senior Country Coach of the Year by the SANFL. He also coached our senior womens team in 2019 then going onto coach SANFLW League where he coached at Sturt FC and now resides at West Adelaide. Bruce is also a HFL umpire and on the HFL board.
Back home at Mt Lofty he has been an avid volunteer over many years, helping all over the club. Over the years Bruce has continuously helped with oval maintenance and line marking. He is also one of our beloved MC’s at Quiz night, Presentation night and other functions, and chips in whenever the call out comes.
We are extremely lucky to have Bruce Dawes as a part of the Mt Lofty Devils Family.
Thank you sincerely on behalf of everybody at Mt Lofty District Football Club for all that you do BD.
