Laverton has secured its finals berth in the Western Region Football League’s division 2 women’s competition.
This is the Magpies first finals series since 2018 when they lost to Spotswood in a semi final.
The Magpies needed a win in their last game of the season to book themselves into September action, and they did just that in a stirring win over Braybrook.
Laverton won by 116 points without allowing the Brookers a single scoring opportunity, winning 16.20 (116)-0.0 (0).
Summer Farley had a best on ground performance kicking eight goals, to give her 26 majors for the season.
Rosa Deverell was another of the Magpies’ best with three goals of her own.
The Magpies will now play West Footscray in a elimination semi final on Sunday.
The Roosters are coming off a six goal loss to Wyndhamvale. The Falcons dominated the Roosters all day, only allowing them the one goal in the 7.2 (44)-1.1 (7) loss.
Jemma Hay was the Roosters only goal scorer, giving her 40 for the season. Eliza Terrey was named the side’s best on ground.
Spotswood continued on its winning ways with a massive victory against North Sunshine. Spotswood also didn’t concede a point in its 10.17 (77)-0.0 (0) win.
Lydia Waghorne booted three majors, Mia Mcdonald had two, while Isabel Choate kicked just the one in a best on ground performance.
Spotswood will now face Wyndhamvale to book a spot in the big dance on Saturday, with the loser of that clash getting a second chance where they will face the winner of Laverton and West Footscray.
In division 1 results, Spotswood crushed Point Cook Centrals, 10.10 (70)-1.1 (7) and will now play in a semi final against Werribee Centrals to get them into the grand final.
