Bottom ranked Mooroopna Golf hosted third placed Shepparton Golf in a game for bragging rights with the latter already boasting a finals guarantee, but the pre-written script was torn in two when push came to shove.

Mooroopna bulldozed its counterpart, taking three of the four rinks to clinch a 16-78 to 2-63 win.
