While former Horsham Demon Jake Lloyd and former Horsham Saint Jarrod Berry squared off in Saturday’s AFL grand final, another Horsham export appeared in South Australian football’s biggest game last month.

Chris Curran earned a South Australian National Football League, SANFL, premiership medal in a thrilling grand final for Glenelg against Norwood on September 21.

The Tigers trailed by as much as 25 points during the third quarter but kicked five goals to two in the final term to win 12.9 (81) to 11.10 (76).

It was Curran’s second premiership with Glenelg after he captained the Tigers to a premiership in 2019, breaking a 33-year drought for the club.

The win added to an already impressive resume for Curran, who represented South Australia in 2019 and 2021 and was previously named captain of a SANFL team of the year by the Adelaide Advertiser. 

He finished runner-up in Glenelg’s best and fairest count in 2018 and fourth in 2019.
