Very surprised to see this one, as I'm sure we struggled to make the 5 in the end.
Can't remember if it was significant injuries or purely bad form, but a real topsy turvy year in the end.

Surely Port qualifies in 1995 having being last after round 1?

Norwood won 11 out of 13 (including 7 in a row) which saw us top. Then, in true Norwood tradition, we lost 4 in a row (including twice to teams outside the top 5) to see us topple to 5th. We then won the final minor round game, then 3 finals in a row. A quick check of my records suggest there was nothing significant in the way of injuries. That's Norwood folks!!!

I don't include Round 1 when there has been a bye in those years.
