SA Footy

Anybody know the Longest Premiership Drought in SA at the moment?

North Clare going on 25 years this year wanted to hear of any other long droughts around SA.

Pongy last saluted in '84

YPFL
Bute 1993
Wallaroo 2000
Ardrossan 20004

Maccy last won around the early '80s IIRC
Birdwood maybe '92
Gum's was pretty long until they won a couple years ago, around 35 years

Maccy was 1980
Birdwood 1994
Gums 1984 until they won in 2019

Premiership needle hasn't moved in any of the 4 grades in 36 years at one of my former clubs. It makes it easy to remember the last ones:

U14's 72
U17's 75
Reserves 86
A's 85

Many clubs have have a fairly long list. From memory the longest I recall or discussed previously was Border Districts in the KNTFL.

I reckon I went to their last one, 91 or 92 for memory, pretty sure the girls won the netball flag too, huge night.

The club you're looking for here is Eyre United. A merged club consisting of Lipson, Ungarra and Bulter. Formed in 1963 and have never won an A grade flag as a merged entity. Probably never will either got smashed by 131 points last weekend and been at the foot of the Great Flinders ladder for a number of years.

I treated mergers as entirely new clubs, thus GPE first season is 2001

Correct, edited.


Also I have changed Great Southern to Myponga-Sellicks was not a merger rather a name change.
