The final round begins with Smithton hosting the ninth-placed City Marians, with the latter able to jump off the bottom of the ladder with a win.

Off the back of a tense draw with a last-second winner disallowed, South Launceston's men will be firing on all cylinders against the plucky West Devonport.

The Dragons have had a season of growth this year, seen in their first wins since rejoining the GNL and will be hungry to prove themselves against one of the perennial powerhouses of the competition.

In a warm-up for next week's elimination final, South Burnie host the dangerous Launceston City.

Both sides will be eager to get a win on the board, and potentially a mental edge over their rivals before next week's encounter.

Having just missed out on a finals berth, Queechy will be looking to end their season on a high over Devonport.

With their last encounter back in round seven a 5-0 victory to Queechy, it will be interesting to see how the sides have changed since then. Burnie Baptist have the bye and have sealed the 2021 minor premiership.

While the men's final standings are set in stone, the women's competition is a completely different affair with a two-point gap from first to third.

A win to any of the top three sides could give them the minor premiership if results go their way, while South Burnie remain a slight chance to bounce back into the top four.

The Hawks face Launceston City, with the former coming out 2-0 winners in their previous encounter.

Despite the Tigers not making finals this year, they have been an ever present threat to the top sides, and will be looking to go out with a bang.

Queechy face Devonport in a must-win game for the Launceston side if they want to hold onto fourth position.

It will be a tough test of defence for Devonport, as they look to steal a couple more points as the season draws to a close.

Reigning premiers City Marians take on the plucky Smithton side for the second week in a row, after coming out 4-1 victors last weekend.

The Saints will be hunting for a few more goals on the board this time around, despite Marians' strong defence.

The match of the round comes between current ladder-leaders South Launceston and the second-placed West Devonport.

During the season each team has picked up a win over the other, and with the minor premiership on the line each team will be desperate to take the three points.

The Dragons' strikers will need to be on target to come from behind against the league's tightest defence in the Suns, having only conceded twelve goals all season.
