Reynella and Morphettville Park ready to face off in Southern Football League grand final

REYNELLA and Morphettville Park are ready to face off in the Southern Football League grand final this Saturday.

REYNELLA'S close-knit squad is desperate to make this season the start of something special at the Southern Football League club.

The Wineflies are hoping to claim just their fifth premiership - and first since 2010 - when they take on Morphettville Park in the grand final at Hickinbotham Oval on Saturday.

It follows Reynella's 17-point preliminary final triumph over reigning premier Happy Valley at the weekend and comes 12 months after it finished seventh.

Wineflies captain Luke Aschmoneit attributed the team's strong season to a "brotherhood" among the players, ensuring "everyone's playing for each other".

And he hoped winning this year's flag could kickstart a period of long-term success.

"We've got a whole team of guys that've played footy with each other for a long time," Aschmoneit said. "I think we have two players in our A and B-grade sides that didn't play juniors at Reynella through the 2000s, we made a lot of grand finals and finished second to Morphett Vale quite a few times.

"That's in the past now and I want to put my stamp on the club.

"I want this next decade for the SFL to be talking about Reynella Football Club, no one else." Aschmoneit, a premiership player with the club in 2010, said it would mean a lot to lead the Wineflies to another flag.

"To be a captain of one of those (premiership) sides, I want that more than anything," he said.

Morphettville Park captain Scott Paterson was confident the club could end its 23-year premiership drought this Saturday.

"We've done a lot of work over a long period of time to get us where we are now," Paterson said.
