Who voted for Glenelg?

I voted South as they had a very good coach and now have an average coach.

Who voted for Sturt or Glenelg ?? I remember Spelly posting in the off season that stats show that the teams that play in the elimination final , more often than not, sink the following season. Sturt & Glenelg have defied the odds.
I voted North, but I also have been dissappointed with West, I thought they may have gotten off the canvas this season.

I voted South, had a reasonable list, a fantastic coach, and fell off the rails rapidly, both on and off field. Most disappointing as a supporter of the game and promoting juniors.

good to see there are 4 fools that have voted in this poll would love to know how Glenelg and Sturt have been dissapointing maybe when one of them loses the grand final it will be disapointing.

North are experts at it after not making the finals in 88 after winning the previous Grand Final by over 13 goals!

North and then daylight in this competition Im afraid.

Would have liked to see Jack complete the season. Can't say if it would have been better, but I thought there was a plan and would liked to see the result. :?

It also means that North still have only had 4 consecutive finals apperances as a club record:

1930-33
1970-73
1989-92
2004-07

Unfortunately that is a very big word. Too many people wouldn't be able to resist voting for a sturt or glenelg just to be stupid :roll: .
