There was no cup presentation, no medals - not even a final to pin the club's success to this season - however, a fifth flag in nine years ensured the Shamrocks began the new decade where they left off the last.

First-year captain Dan Murfet conceded the coronavirus outbreak had made for a strange conclusion to the season, but was happy to have won all the same.

"It's nice to know we'll get our name on the cup and count it as another premiership," he said.

"It's nice to have some reward for the season, we worked really hard to try and make sure we finished on top because we know it means a lot."

Seemingly the best team all season, the Shamrocks defended their Greater Northern Cup title in February and finished eight points clear atop the Cricket North table after wrapping up their round 16 match against Riverside on March 7.

The Shamrocks were ready to meet preliminary final winner South Launceston in a three-day final starting March 20 before the global pandemic forced administrators to can the game three days out.

The state's lockdown measures will likely prevent the players from celebrating together for several months and according to Murfet, will give the team extra drive to reach a 10^th straight final.

"It's a bit weird, that's for sure," the gloveman said.

"Hopefully in a few months' time once everything goes past we might be able to get together as a group and try and look back on the season a little bit.

"We did manage to sneak in a few celebrations before everything went into lockdown as it is now - we were given some information that we should be the winners - but at the time we were still in a little bit of limbo.

"We'll get together as soon as possible I guess to try and look back on the season before the next one gets started.

"The fact that we didn't get to play off properly gives us as much motivation again next year to get on that big stage at the end of the season."

Launceston was awarded the second-grade title after finishing four points clear of Westbury.
