SA Footy

Only just noticed the strange coincidence in the Grand Finals in WA, SA & VIC

All three Premiers this year were also Premiers in 1973.

Not having had the time to do compete research but wonder how many times this has happened in the 3 main Football States????

Might have to do some research.

Done the research it has happened 4 times since 1897

1936 Collingwood - Port Adelaide - East Perth
1958 Collingwood - Port Adelaide - East Perth

1956 Melbourne - Port Adelaide - East Perth
1959 Melbourne - Port Adelaide - East Perth

1973 Richmond - Glenelg - Subiaco
2019 Richmond - Glenelg - Subiaco

1992 West Coast Eagles - Port Adelaide - East Fremantle
1994 West Coast Eagles - Port Adelaide - East Fremantle

Surprised it has not happened more times with some clubs having dominant eras at the same time

Looks a good stat to me
