1936 TANFL Season: Lefroy

These are the details of the premiership results of Lefroy for the 1936 TANFL season. The team finished the regular season in second place, securing a place in the finals series. After defeating Cananore in the semi final and being defeated by North Hobart in the final, Lefroy exercised their right to challenge for the premiership by virtue of having the most wins in the regular season. This right is typically awarded to the minor premiers. However, a discussion of the rule that took place on 7 September 1936 by the Tasmanian Australian National Football League determined that although North Hobart may be leading on premiership points with fewer wins (due to later rounds being worth more than the earlier ones), it is the team with the most wins (Lefroy) that was entitled to the right. Lefroy were defeated by North Hobart in the challenge final, resulting in becoming the runners-up.
