Seen a tri-colours team win a pre-lim final. I heard our reserves team on the radio win a GF, early 90's maybe. But I'm in my thirties and never been and watch my team win a pre-lim. I'm not sure if that means I will jinx us by going or not going. But I will I need to know what the feeling is like. Although most older than I probably haven't seen one either, maybe this is our baby step to have kids onfield and off field learn the feeling.

We haven't won a prelim since 1961.
Gee I hope we smash the curse.The curse is dead.

I saw the reserves win the Grandfinal in 1988, and that is all I have seen

Central Districts over in S.A. have had a pretty good run.

I fear that when it happens I will not be able to handle GF week and will finally be tipped over the edge.
