The Daylesford Bulldogs have done what no other team could this season, beating Hepburn in the all-important qualifying final by 20 points over the weekend.
It was a classic example of finals football, with both teams gaining the lead numerous times throughout the match with neither team putting the other one away.
Scott Winduss was best on ground, dominating his opponent at the centre bounces and giving his midfielders silver service with large amounts of hit outs to advantage.
