Saturday produced a turn around in fortunes, playing Yarra at 8.30 a.m., Metro West at 10.40, Strzelecki at 2 p.m., and Eastern Ranges at 4.10, for three wins and a draw. These results enabled Wimmera to climb to second spot, which resulted in a few tears being shed. Sunday dawned, and at 8.30, the ladies came up against Bendigo Campaspe for another win, with one more game to go. At 10.40, Wimmera took on Geelong, and believe it or not, Wimmera won two of the three rinks. Bring on the final! Wimmera fronted up to Ovens and Murray and started promisingly, but the speed of the green and pressure applied by Ovens and Murray proved too much.
