I would think ROCS & PHOS rate a mention in recent times; Goodwood are certainly the opposite of this situation

DIV 2 2005 PHOS
DIV 2 2006 Scotch
Was it Henley in 2005 that were plowing through everyone but had a bad Finals series? And I think Athelstone Div 3 last year wasted a fair opportunity.

Unfortunately agree with Athelstone last year, would have been nice to play them in the Granny. North Haven imo are the biggest finals chokers, renowned for amazingly low scores and being belted in finals...

Crystal Brook have an appalling GF record.
They've played in something like the last 8 GFs and have lost six (someone over there can give a correct fiugure), a lot of them were in a row too.
To their credit they've won two though.
Since winning the flag in 1996 - Loxton's played in 1998, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 grand finals. They won in 2006.

Meadows in the HFL Country div last year. They were easilyone of the top 2 sides and would've probably given Kangarilla a fair run in the GF but they went out in straight sets. No thanks to the coach, they were terribly coached in their 2nd final against Kersbrook.

Three serial chokers with a severe case of the colliwobbles would be:
Onkaparinga Valley (HCFL) 2 premierships from 10 grand finals appearances. United (APFL) 3 premierships from 15 grand final appearances and
Reynella (SFL) 3 premierships from 15 grand finals appearances also.

That's some fair records there Supa.
I wonder if those guys would rather not make the GF than lose another one?
