Beaconsfield made it back-to-back wins on Saturday beating Norwood 12.21(93) to 4.5(29).
Led by Charlie Muley’s four goals and Josh Mounter’s best-afield showing, the win, alongside other results, pushes Beaconsfield up to third on the table.
With the Eagles fattening their percentage through the last fortnight, one win from their last two would almost certainly be enough to guarantee a finals spot.
The Eagles will get an excellent opportunity to secure the finals berth on Saturday against Bayswater, which has won just three games for the year, while a double chance remains on the cards if they upset Park Orchards to finish the season, such is the tightness between third and sixth on the table.
