In one dominant performance Minyip-Murtoa secured the minor premiership and effectively ended Horsham's chances of a finals berth.

Coach John Delahunty said he was pleased with his team's performance in the 18.12 (120) to 6.8 (44) win.

"I'm really happy with how the boys went. We controlled the game for 80 maybe even 90 per cent of it I thought. We really had them beat on most levels and across most lines on the ground," he said.

Horsham started strongly, clawing back an early Burras' lead midway through the first term. But, that was as good as it got for Demons supporters for the majority of the game.

Minyip-Murtoa kicked three late goals to enter the huddle with the score 44-13 in their favour.

Both sides struggled in a forgettable second quarter, as tensions threatened to boil over.

The sole highlight in the term was a well-taken Jae McGrath goal that helped his side to a 45-point lead at half-time.

The Burras started to draw away as their young stars, led by Logan Petering, overran the Demons in the middle of the field

"I was rapt with our younger fellas. We had quite a young, inexperienced midfield group and they just added that much value to our team today. It was unreal," Delahunty said.

Brad Inglis extended Minyip-Murtoa's lead in the third quarter with some brilliant work in the forward 50. Ingis found space with ease as he worked his way towards a game-high seven-goal haul.

Any signs of a Horsham attack were quickly snuffed out by Tim Mackenzie, whose work floating in the backline earned him recognition as the Burras' best.

The Demons entered the final term 75-points behind, but didn't lie down, kicking three goals in a fighting effort.

But, it was too little too late, as the final siren confirmed Minyip-Murtoa's status as minor premiers.

Delahunty said it was a good reward for a club-wide effort.

"We've got some really good supporters...and a lot of people are really excited at the moment, which they ought to be," he said.

"A lot of volunteers and people at the club have been putting in a lot of hard work to get this success in both the football and the netball."

Delahunty said securing top spot allowed them flexibility heading into the finals campaign.

"If we have a couple of sore bodies we've got a chance to manage a few, if needs be. But, everyone's just loving playing as a team. I can't imagine there'll be too many putting their hand up to have a week off," he said.

At Central Park, Stawell secured a comfortable 76-51 win against the Horsham Saints.
