The situations are almost identical.
Swans get knocked out of the finals straight away in 2001, have a shocker by missing the finals in 2002, then defy all odds to make a preliminary in 2003.
Kangas get knocked out of the finals straight away in 2005, have a shocker by missing the finals in 2006, then defy all odds to make the prelim this year.
They'll probably get slaughtered today but their achievements this year deserve a big thumbs up.
