It’s like the 2000s again! Not a single Melb team in the prelims!

Instead we’ve the lions, power, swans and cats.

Who were premiers in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 respectively (with a cheeky eagles flag in 2006).

edit:

Or, to include repeats and losing the grand final:

The 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 07 & 09 premiers, and, the 04, 06, 07 & 08 runners up are in the prelims this year.

Not one GF in 9 years that didn’t have one of these four and only two that were win by another team.
