Because I am taking a break I am going to just finish this so you guys know who will win.
MATCHUPS:
Lilydale Lizards V 4. Gippsland Giants
Brisbane Bucks Academy V 3. Queenscliff Quokkas
Lilydale Lizards V Queenscliff Quokkas
The first semi final between former 1st place and current first place. But you cant live in the past. The Lizards destroyed the Magic in this semi final, primarily because of Orland Marley going down with a torn hamstring in the 2nd quarter.
Final Score: Lizards 126-112 Magic
Brisbane Bucks Academy V Queenscliff Quokkas
2nd vs 3rd on the ladder. It was always going to be close. 24 seconds left and Bolton Shai kicks it inside 50...... DAICOS DAICOS TAKES THE MARK. He takes his time and waits for the siren to sound. He runs up and kicks it from 40 metres away and........... IT OES TRHROUGH THE 2 MIDDLE STICKS. DAICOS DAICOS HAS KICKED A WINNER. Daicos goes wild and so does the crowd. The Brisbane Bucks Academy have made it to the Grand Final in style.

GRAND FINAL: LILYDALE LIZARDS V BRISBANE BUCKS ACADEMY
All that drama hanging over the Lizards heads due to the bribery scandal finally got to them at the worst possible time. The Bucks tried to capitalize on this but they were still down with 5 seconds to go. Bolton Shai handballs it to Daicos Daicos and he rockets it from 60 metres out. The siren sounds and it looks like it is going to fall short. But.......... THE BALL LIED TO US. DAICOS DAICOS HAS HAD AN UNREAL PLAYOFF RUN. BRISBANE HAVE WON IT.
