I was searching my memory and referring to what I think was 2000 that saw the A's and B's in the Grand Final under Tommy Turic?

So technically the last year of last millennium ....

And one last bit of PNU related trivia, this year out of 14 sides across juniors and seniors who compete for premiership points all of them made the finals.

Footy Chick wrote:Some interesting facts about our Grand Finalists this week:

Scotch OC's last A grade flag was way back in 1997.

PNU are attempting their 3rd club flag in 9 years.

Plympton are attempting their 7th club flag in 6 years and are also a chance of winning their 2 highest division flags ever.

Brahma Lodge play in their 2nd successive GF after not winning one in their previous 15 years

Kenilworth are attempting their 4th flag in as many years after a 30 year drought.

Woody South are the only club in 2013 vying for back to back flags in both grades.

North Haven will be trying to win the clubs first flag since 1998

5 of CLG's 7 flags have been won by their A grade

Lockleys D6R side vying for their first flag in 27 years

Ingle Farm -From 2,5,0,3,3 and 5 wins in the last 6 years to a chance to win their third A grade flag and their first since 1994


Angle Vale are vying for their first flag since entering the competition in 2008

SMOSH - still a chance to win 3 flags in 2013

A 26th flag by their C1 team would put Walkerville in clear third of most club flags. (Adel Uni 77, Broadview 36)

Seaton's C3 team will be playing for just the clubs 3rd flag since 1991.

five clubs are playing for the chance for a flag, who also have the medallist and the leading goal kicker in 2013. (Athelstone C2, Fitzroy C3, Ingle Farm D7, Henley D7R and TTG 18's)*

* denotes the fact that the D1 and D2 count hasn't taken place yet

** If any of the above isn't correct and you can prove it, please let me know :D


Two more goals to Nick Jolly and he would have had a chance at the trifecta too.
Man, we ain't found shit!

Helps sort through the aftermath ;)

Since 1982 Adelaide Uni have had at least one team in a Grand Final every year except 1985 and 1995, 30 years out of 32.

Also, 2013 was the 2nd year in a row they had no medal winners, last time this happened was 1979.

Has Rulebook retired? ;)
