Turning my attention to div 1 now that 2 and 3 have wrapped, interesting to note this weeks prelim finals are made up solely of 4 clubs: Hunters Hill (2), Waverley (3), Colleagues (5!) and Blue Mountains (2).
Throw in the fact that Blue Mountains (2), HH (1), and Waverley (2) already make up 5 of the 6 GF qualified teams (long live Mosmans dominant Colts outfit), it's certainly shaping up to be a very top heavy Grand Final day next week. Comparatively, a hugely lean year for Forest, Drummoyne, Lindfield and to a lessor extent Mosman.
If the unthinkable happens and Colleagues were to lose their 5 prelim finals... could see a situation where 11/12 grand final teams are from 3 clubs!
Even more interesting to note that Waverley (2016), Hunters Hill (2020) and Blue Mountains (2018) were competing in lower divisions not all that long ago and are now the powerhouses of division 1, full credit to them!
