In the final match, it was off to Unley Oval as the Double Blues faced the Tigers. The visitors were rather unlucky last weekend, but the Blues haven't exactly been the most fortunate either.

Sturt managed to break away from the Tigers in the second term, inaccuracy preventing them from building up a big lead. Sturt up by 19 points at the half time break. Not much happened in the third term, Glenelg kicked a solitary goal while the Blues continued to miss the mark with their 2.4.
