Allan "Bull" Reval coached Glenelg in 1949 to 6th position in an eight team competition.
He is credited with instigating the "new" guernsey modelled on Richmond's gold sash on a black background, and implementing a number of significant measures which assisted his successor, Johnny Taylor, to steer the Tigers to the 1950 grand final
Reval is described in 100 Years with the Magpies -- The story of the Port Adelaide Football Club as "an iron man, with an iron man's will and constitution packed into his ruck-rover's frame." Reval, it continued, combined with Port champion Bob Quinn -- who had two MMs; a Military Medal won at Tobruk and a Magarey Medal at home -- to rule the packs in the 1930s and '40s. Reval was an automatic state selection from 1934 to 1939, and the Victorians reportedly spent a lot of time trying to clean him up, without success.
Reval was in the Port Adelaide side that lost to Glenelg in the 1934 Grand Final, and for good measure was reported in the last term of that match.
