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 Heathfield Balcony is the place to be this weekend. Our U12 Mixed team opens the action Friday night, followed by a blockbuster Saturday as the men face Onkas at home.
On Sunday, our SANFL Juniors return to the field at ovals across the metro area, with our C Grade battling it out right here at Heathfield.
Let’s fill the boundary, lift the energy, and show every team what Mt Lofty spirit looks like.

SENIOR WOMEN
Sunday against Onkas, we were proud to welcome three players making their senior debut – all homegrown talent from our incredible Mt Lofty juniors program.
Zoe McArthur, Imogen Byrne and Kirrilly Borneman each stepped up, played their roles, and embraced every moment out on the field. For their first senior game, they showed outstanding composure and maturity – you’d think they’d been playing at this level for years!

“At Mt Lofty we’re building a respectful, positive football environment for everyone.”
Mt Lofty Football Club would like to remind all players, coaches, officials and supporters of the SANFL Behaviour Management System (BMS).
This system is in place across all SANFL-affiliated competitions to promote a safe, respectful and positive environment for everyone involved in our game.
Under the BMS, behaviour at matches is monitored and recorded, with points allocated for any breaches. It is important to understand that this applies to all participants — including players, coaches, team officials and spectators — and that poor behaviour can result in penalties for both individuals and the club.
At Mt Lofty, we pride ourselves on being a strong, community-focused club, and we expect all members and supporters to uphold the values of respect, sportsmanship and accountability. In particular, respect for umpires and opposition is non-negotiable.
We ask everyone to play their part in creating a positive game day environment and setting the right example for our junior players.
“Your behaviour reflects on the club — all grades PLUS the club can be penalised.”
See below for the HFL sanctions for any breaches and new rules as of 2026.
