The fairy-tale will continue for either Fairpark or Surrey Park. Both teams are breaking a long finals drought – 2008 for the Lions and 2006 for the Panthers. Neither team has won a final this millennium! The Lions last tasted finals success in 1997 while Surrey has never won an EFL final. The SBRD* had to delve through the archives to locate an SFL win in 1999.
Current long streaks:
Winning: South Belgrave 18; Vermont 11; Coldstream 10 (first streak of 10 or more for Coldstream since 17 in a row from rd 3 – 2nd semi, 2003)
Current longest droughts:
Premiership: Forest Hill 1984
Grand Final: Fairpark 1995
Finals: East Ringwood 2008
