Collegians Senior Football League are headed to their second consecutive Harrigan Motor Group Cup Grand Final after ending Thirroul Butchers remarkable turnaround season with a commanding 28-8 preliminary final victory at Collegians Sporting Complex on Sunday afternoon.

The win sets up a showdown with minor premiers Corrimal Cougars RLFC at WIN Stadium next Saturday, with Collegians earning another opportunity to claim the premiership after falling agonisingly short in last year’s decider.

For Thirroul, the defeat brought an end to an impressive resurgence that saw the Butchers rise from last season’s wooden spoon to within one victory of the Grand Final.
