Geelong Amateur and Grovedale meet this Sunday with the winner to progress to the Division 1 grand final
Just two wins separated top from fourth on the ladder and this year’s finals series has the potential to be one of the closest yet.
Ammos finished on top with a 12-2 record and are coming off a 41-point win against St Joseph’s.
Grovedale has an 11-3 record and jumped into second place with an impressive 60-point thrashing of third placed St Mary’s.
St Mary’s (11-3) will take on Thomson (10-4) in the elimination final with the winner taking on the loser of the qualifying final. The loser will be eliminated.
In Division 2, Geelong West Giants and South Barwon clash to see who is the first team into the grand final. Both teams have a 13-2 record this season.
The Giants are fresh from a 197-point mauling of St Albans with Kobe Davison and Alyssa Cross each booting eight majors while Kiya Conor kicked six.
The two teams have met each other only once this season, back in round 1 where the Giants won by 33 points.
Drysdale and Newtown & Chilwell meet for the right to progress to the preliminary final.
St Joseph’s meets Bell Park Giants in the Under 18s qualifying final.
