Panthers and Tigers receive Simon Alexander premiership rings

By ZAC MILBANK

Reigning Hostplus SANFLW League premiers South Adelaide have proudly displayed their 2024 premiership rings, courtesy of Simon Alexander Jewellers.

And for the first time, players from the 2024 Hostplus SANFL League premiership team – Glenelg – have also been presented with the memorable memento after their Grand Final triumph.

Handcrafted by Adelaide jeweller Simon Dimasi of Simon Alexander Jewellers, the Panthers’ ring features the club’s logo together with the year the club was established – 1878.

The Tigers’ premiership ring displays its Glenelg FC club logo on the front, with both clubs’ rings acknowledging their premiership year on the side.

For the past five years, Simon Alexander Jewellers have proudly partnered with SANFL to generously award every member of the Hostplus SANFL Women’s League premiership team with a commemorative ring.

In 2024, this extended to the Hostplus SANFL League premiership team, with the Tigers becoming the first men’s side to receive the bespoke platinum rings after defeating Norwood by five points in the title-decider.

South’s quest for SANFLW redemption in 2024 was realised when it held on to topple the Redlegs by five points in the Grand Final.
