The First Semi between Scotch and Old Ignatians at Henley following a 16- & 17-goal performance by Scotch full forward Clay Chaplin the previous two games against West Croydon & Riverside. Scotch won the match easily 22.9 to 9.9 but a season-ending broken collarbone to Chaplin made coach Rob Popplestone’s job that much harder. The Second Semi at Campbelltown was just as one sided as Nick Genovese’s Lockleys coasted to a 21.16 to 11.10 victory over Paul Dittmar’s Fitzroy, but the Lions had the better of Scotch in the Prelim. at Panther Park 15.17 to 12.10 to earn a spot in the Grand Final at Prospect. Lockleys started well and a repeat of the Second Semi threatened, but then Fitzroy kicked 17 of the next 23 goals to win the Club’s first A-Grade premiership 17.15 to 12.9.
