In round 12 DJ Strachan Shield, Healesville hosts Warburton at Queens Park in their Team of the Century event. Warburton may well upset the party here, Hoddles Creek hosts Seville, which must win to have any chance of a semi final berth. With injuries and unavailabilities for Seville along with the Hoddles Creek performance in round 11 against top side Wandin, this could help Hoddles Creek win. Mt Evelyn travels to Wandin in a match that the visitors need to win to ensure a final-four placement.
