The 1990 South Australian National Football League season was the 111th season of the top-level Australian rules football competition in South Australia. This was a year of high tension with the aftermath of the Port Adelaide bid to join the VFL, a move hotly contested by the other SANFL and in which Glenelg played a leading role. The season concluded on Sunday 7 October with the Grand Final in which Port Adelaide (minor premiers) won its 30th premiership by defeating Glenelg (second at the end of the minor rounds).

This was the last SANFL season before the introduction of the Adelaide Crows into the Australian Football League. This effectively relegating the SANFL to second tier status in South Australia. It also became the last year in which Woodville and West Torrens competed as separate identities.
