League flags is still a reality.

The Emus will get another shot at Lexton in the Kingprint LPFL’s last grand final at Eureka Stadium on Saturday.

It will be a third consecutive premiership play-off for Skipton, and its ninth since the LPFL was formed in 1999.

The Emus have won four flags, while Lexton is in its first grand final in the competition.

Skipton came from behind at three-quarter time to defeat

Rokewood-Corindhap by 18 points in the preliminary final at Linton on Saturday, 8.10 (58) to 6.4 (40).

The Grasshoppers led by five points at the last change after a strong third term, but the final period was fully controlled by Skipton, turning around the third quarter pattern.

Emu Stefan Pye booted his second goal for the match after a flurry of four Skipton behinds to put his team in front with about 15 minutes to play.

Three minutes later, after another Emu behind, an errant

kick-in fell into the arms of Danny George who split the sticks to give Skipton what turned out to be an unassailable lead.

Some undisciplined acts in the third term, however, threatened to derail Skipton’s premiership aspirations.

Two Grasshopper goals without the ball being bounced and Damien Larkin being put on report were not in the plan of coach Tim McKay, but he was able to right the

ship and get his team into that one day in September.

McKay said Skipton really focused on the third term.

‘‘To play such unaccountable and undisciplined footy as we did (in the third quarter) was really disappointing.

‘‘The last quarter showed great spirit from the boys and there is a bit of belief that might have been missing over the past couple of weeks,’’ he said.

Rokewood-Corindhap did not give up at any stage, but lack of usual rotations off the bench did not help.

‘‘We lost Stuart Matheson and Tim Fulton in the first half, and Simon Bogie (after a heavy clash in the third term),’’ Grasshoppers coach Tom Mullane-Grant said.

‘‘Our boys put in a valiant effort.

We were winning hard ball after hard ball, pushing the ball forward.

‘‘I was very proud of the boys, but in the end Skipton was just too good,’’ he said.
