One for the historians
If Claremont win the Colts GF today they will have all 3 grades in the GFs. From memory this seems to have happened a few times in the past 25 years since their league dominance in the late 80s. I can't remember any other club doing this once in that time but I seem to remember at least 2 or 3 for Claremont before this year. Admittedly they haven't won many of them in recent history but it's quite a remarkable achievement.
Can't seem to find too much Colts or Ressies history on the web. Does anyone know how many times Claremont have done this since about 87 or if any other clubs have done it in that time? |
east fremantle lost the 1962 league grand final (and 1963 and 1964) but won the reserves gf and the colts gf in that year.

didn,t east freo do it in the late 90s? in 99 maybe?

2000.
LEAGUE: EP 18.11 (119) d EF 11.14 (80) RESERVES: C 14.9 (93) d EF 10.7 (67) COLTS: EP 9.6 (60) d EF 8.5 (53) Good day in the wet for the Royals. Bad day for the Sharks. Graham Polak & Aaron Sandilands were two of the players for East Fremantle |
has a team been represented in the league , reserves, colts and fourths gf's.
|
1990 swans upset claremont to win the league gf. earlier that day the tigers defeated south in the reserves and lost to west perth in the colts.
|
1987 claremont crushed subi by 10 goals in the league gf. earlier they had won the reserves gf by 26pts. but the east fremantle colts stopped a claremont clean sweep by winning the colts gf easily. so 1987, 1990 and 1993 claremont play in the gf for all three grades.

and again this year. interesting to see that tom mitchell played colts yesterday when a couple of weeks ago sydney, who have signed him under father son, told claremont that they were not allowing him to play any more football. Mcphee made the remarkable comment that the club considered him to be in the league sides best 22. this about an injury plagued colt who hasn't made a league debut. Kid can play though, seems to get best on ground every time he does get out on the park
