The Grand Final stage was set as the Bonnyrigg White Eagles took on the Sutherland Sharks in front of a healthy crowd and from all reports the match was played at a feverish pace.
It was the White Eagles who were left smiling in the end however as they defeated a 10-men Sharks outfit 2-1 which sent the players and fans into raptures.
