Spotswood has stunned Seddon and shaken up the VTCA north west division finals race.
The Woodsmen only had 192 runs to defend at Hanmer Reserve on Saturday, but they routed the Dockers for just 82.
The final round for both Spotswood and Seddon is now unlikely to go their way. At least the Woodsmen’s win over a local rival will linger well. After an 88 not out by skipper Andrew Dickinson on day one, the Woodsmen defended well, with Jeremy Brown and Ashley Robertson taking three wickets apiece.
