Congratulations to John ‘JD’ Dwyer for making his A Grade debut in the Candy Strips last Saturday for the Devils. JD was presented with his guernsey by Club Legend and Club Sponsor, Alex Weeks and supported by Father Dan and Brother Charlie.
Welcome to the Devs JD.
Last week against Blackwood the Senior Women’s team welcomed Lily Jenke to the Devs family, and what better way to do that but with our homegrown AFLW player Lily Smart! Lily comes to us from Strathalbyn/South Adelaide u18 program.
Lily has been a great pick up helping to drive standards both on and off field! She is a powerful player who brings her team mates into the game Welcome Lily
❤️🤍The definition of a Mt Lofty Football Club Mum !! 🤍❤️
“She is a highly skilled, multi‑tasking lifeform capable of locating lost boots, washing jumpers that smell like a swamp, providing boundary‑line commentary, and cheering loudly enough to be heard over a jet engine — all while pretending not to be stressed when their kid gets crunched in a tackle.”
One of our own special Mums, club volunteer and club sponsor, Mary Read Owner of Poppies Flower Studio , has offered everyone this amazing offer, especially as Mother’s Day is SUNDAY 10/5!
Exactly 12 months after installing our new state of the art electronic scoreboard, we’re proud to switch on the next major upgrade — our brand new LED oval lighting.
The old halogen lights have officially been retired, replaced with a high-performance system delivering approx. 180 lux — lifting the ground to a standard aligned with SANFL-level lighting.
This is a genuine step change. More night games. Better training conditions. Greater flexibility for our growing football program. And a safer, more consistent environment for everyone who takes the field.
This outcome has only been possible through the drive of project manager Chris Illman, Nathan Brooks of EDC Expert Group and President Greg Bond along with the financial support of the Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing and Adrian Braddock and Sports Lighting SA.

Next up… BBQ and Lofty Legends bar upgrade. Stay tuned.
Our Player of the Week for Round 2 goes to Jake Aish. Jake was everywhere—hard at it, smart with the footy and leading by example when it mattered. A fan favourite effort from a player who gives everything.
Thanks to Lamm Solar + Electrical for their ongoing support.
Round 3 vs Uraidla
Our Player of the Week for Round 3 goes to Sam McTaggart.
Sam was electric on Saturday, turning the Mt Lofty clash into a showcase of pure pace and pressure. He ran hard, moved fast, and hit every contest like it mattered.
Clean handballs, fierce tackles, and that trademark burst of speed saw him slicing through traffic and leaving opponents scrambling. Every time the ball hit the ground, Sam was already gone — creating play, lifting teammates, and shifting momentum.
A game‑shaping performance from a player in serious form. Thanks to Sam’s player sponsor CM Construction for their ongoing support.
Next up… BBQ and Lofty Legends bar upgrade. Stay tuned.
