Rain washed out the Saturday of the two day grand final at Greenhill Reserve, Wallan. Captain Marcus Stewart won the toss and sent Gisborne in, knowing a draw would hand the flag to the side that finished on top of the ladder. Tom Robson took 3/35 from 19 overs, and 21 year old Ollie Price batted through the final session for 45 not out off 127 balls to win the Sanders Medal. At 5:30pm on the Sunday the match was drawn, and Woodend were premiers.
