The 1987 SANFL Grand Final was an Australian rules football competition. Run-away minor premiers North Adelaide defeated 4th-placed Glenelg 145 to 63.[2]
This was the third consecutive year that North coached by Michael Nunan and Glenelg coached by Graham Cornes met in the grand final. It gave Nunan his first success as a coach, and Cornes the first of 3 losses in 4 years.
The Jack Oatey Medal was won by North Adelaide ruckman Michael Parsons[3] who top scored with 6 goals and 1 behind.[4]
