And, the two combatants from the inaugural grand final, earlier this season, look set for a rematch.
The Ramettes hammered the Denman She-Devils 54-0 with Brydie Parker and Kelsey French leading the way, with four and three tries respectively.
Singleton also cruised past the Aberdeen Tigers 32-0, courtesy of a Tyler Kersley hat-trick.
The night’s best match featured the Merriwa Magpies and Murrurundi Mavettes.
The hosts enjoyed a 14-0 lead on the back of four-pointers to Gaynor Blackadder, Maddilyn Blackadder and Jessyca Morgan.
Dimity Parker landed one conversion.
However, Murrurundi responded in the second period, thanks to Jodie Holman and Lucy Prudden – only to lose 14-8.
Meanwhile, there has been a change to the draw, due to a clash with the Muswellbrook Gold Cup race meeting next month.
“A couple of concerns were raised about the possibility of intoxicated people gaining access to the games at McKinnon Oval, Aberdeen, on Friday, December 8 – and the issues that could arise from this,” Group 21 secretary/treasurer Jane Walmsley said.
“The management committee decided to swap round five and the finals venues to avoid any problems.
“Aberdeen will now host matches on Friday, December 1 – Singleton v Muswellbrook (6pm), Aberdeen v Merriwa 96.35pm), and Murrurundi v Denman (7.10pm).
“The finals – 3rd v 4th (6pm) and 1st v 2nd (6.45pm) – are scheduled to take place at Singleton’s Pirtek Park on Friday, December 8.”
