The Eastside Blues will be to looking to rewrite records after winning their fourth flag in a row in 2016 to become the second team in BRFL history to achieve four premierships in a row.

Now the Blues have a chance for five in a row.

Only two weeks ago the Katherine Camels went straight into the grand final of the Big Rivers Football League after a convincing win over early frontrunners Eastside Blues.

It was still a good season for the exciting Beswick Bears which had a last kick win over the more fancied Katherine South Crocs in their final to reach the preliminary final.

The Crocs led all day until a 50 metre goal in the final minute saw the Bears win by two points and book a place in theweekend’s preliminary final against Eastside Blues.
