Literally only one of the sides you've listed there is a traditional club. West Coast, Fremantle and Adelaide are all AFL Franchises created just like Gold Coast and GWS were, just in a locations where AFL is already the dominant sport.

West Coast and Adelaide also got to pick the eyes out their home states for talent much more than the other two. Who came in once the AFL was significantly draining the talent out of those states.
