Is it right that only teams who have contested a grand final can apply for 2012, or have I just made that up?

Donny should aspire to be a top six Championship club, with a thriving academy that SL clubs look to poach from. Once they have that they can start thinking about SL.

But then the Club won't get much media attention from the headline "SL? We don't need no stinking SL!", will they?

they'll be setting their sights on improvement this year and winning the final in 2010 then, as i would imagine the applications for 2012 have to be done in 2011 (apologies if this is wrong)

better get a move on

I have been told that this rule only applies to English clubs.

If someone has heard something different that they are absolutely sure is true, and can prove it to be true, then I will stand corrected.
