Is 5 in a row a record.

[tjrra]

The Royals from the Great Southern Football League (WA) have won a fifth straight Grand final.....is that a record? In WA it would go close to it. The Royals have now won 30 Premierships in 60 years. Just wanted to know if any clubs around Victoria/South Australia/Tassie can boast that kind of record.

[mud n blood]

Hasn't Port Adelaide won 33, albeit in a longer time frame ???

Eastern suburbs won 7 1953-1959.
Norwood won 6 1878-1883.
Port Adelaide won 6 1954-1959.
Ainslie won 6 1992-1997.
Newtown won 6 1945-1950.
Launceston won 6 1933-1938.
Fremantle won 5 1892-1896.
East Perth won 5 1918-1923.
Eastlake won 5 1962-1966.
North Launceston won 5 1946-1950.
East Sydney won 5 1980-1984.
St.Marys won 5 1983/84-1987/88.
Sturt won 5 1966-1970.
Windsor won 5 1936-1940.

These are a few I know. Mobben, you might have a few country leagues around the place that would beat these.

[Mobbenfuhrer]

I haven't been running a consev premiers list but still received a post, courtesy timelord : Ramblers (Great Flinders FL) : 15 consec premierships 1968-82. Also runners-up 1966 & 67.

I HAVE been running one on consec GF appearances : Thevenard (Far West FL) : 30 consec GFs.

[eagleskickass]

Yes the MIGHTY ROYALS have got the 5-peat:D:D pity the ressies and colts lost (colrs 3rd year in a row to the SAME opponent!)

Good onya Royals, coached by ex WAFL premiership captain and coach of Claremont Darryl Panizza

[smithy]

What made Ports achievement even better between 54-59 is that their reserves won 5 in a row during the same period.
Must of had some depth.

Dunno. :o

[Dogwatcher]

ill have a look through the riverland lists - but I think there are a few contenders.
In recent times loxton North (damn them) won four in a row 1997-2000.

Mobb: do you want a list of the Riverland premiers and medal winners? I can fax you one easily enough.

[Mobbenfuhrer]

Thanks DW but got the premiers and don't collect the medal-winners.

Just been collating consec premiers and have done most of Vic and SA, with a couple of others thrown in received from other folks.

Haven't got up to the other states per the 'pedia yet, not to mention the post above.

Hold your horses, it may not happen overnight ... :)

[tjrra]

I have been looking into some records and found that 5 in a row is not that rare.....Gascoyne Football Association Ramblers have won 32 since 1948 including 7 in a row 1987 - 1994.

[8485]

Think Tullamarine(or their old name of Essendon-Tullamarine) won 5 in a row in the70s in the EDFL.

Lets go Royals, 4 to go for the WA record!

[mud n blood]

Mobben - "1988-1992" is five flags not 4 :confused:

Secondly, do you have full premiership lists for each of the regional Qld Leagues?

No :o

[mud n blood]

Windsor was the pre-cursor to Windsor-Zillmere - so yes, QAFL (although it may have been QANFL at that stage) Either way, this is in our premier league.

And will confirm for you tonight, but Aspley won 6(?) - until Strathpine spoilt them - and Sherwood 9(?) - until they joined the QAFL in 1983 - both in Div.1 SQAFA. Will get years from my records at home. I think Southport had a run of 7 or 8 in the Gold Coast league too :confused:

[stmookeyj]

BITS have won the last 4 premierships in AFL Capricornia. They beat Gladstone in 2000,2002, I think it was Yeppoon in 2001 and definitely Glenmore in 2003.

[Dogwatcher]

Just a question, i know the answer is probably obvious, but Kev, what do the $ signs mean after some of the entries?

4 - Qld - Maroochydore (B.A.F.L. Div.1) - 1993-1996

4 - Qld - Souths Balaclava (Cairns AFL) - 1963-1966

Mobbs, Old Xav's won 6 in a row from 1995-96-97-98-99-2000.

Not sure if it's enough, but Ormond won 4 in a row 1987-88-89-90 which was a VAFA record but now surpassed by Old Xav's.

[Mobbenfuhrer]

Yeah thanks CFE, I just received that same advice from someone else over on f'pedia ... the full details are there now, I haven't been updating this one ... hard enough covering one :)

I remember when Abernethy was hosting that Port Power unveiling in late '96, talking about the 6 in a row, stating that no team has or will come close to beating it. Ahem.

Yeah, I'd call 3pts pretty close.
