Sides missing the finals

[goyouroosters]

Hi Spelly,

It occurred to me that all 4 sides with "Adelaide" in their name have missed the 5 this year.
Has this ever occurred before?
(Apologies if this has been asked elsewhere)

Cheers

This is a first. I haven't seen it being asked before, so you are the lucky first! It never came to my mind either.

Thanks Spelly,

Flip side of this is all 4 making the finals - and I recall 1991 as being the only time that happened - unless I'm wrong?

You are right again; 1991 is the only occasion, too.
