AFTER missing out last year, Mildura turned up with a point to prove in their return to under 18 finals, spoiling Red Cliffs’ first appearance since 2012.
Both teams finished the regular season with 12 wins so a hard-fought battle was expected, which was evident in the first half with only a point separating the scores at each of the opening two breaks.
They will now meet the loser of this weekend’s semi between Robinvale/Euston and Irymple at City Oval.

The performance pleased coach Ashley Spencer.
