Three teams will duke it out for a spot in the Twenty20 grand final and with it a crack at the first piece of silverware this season.

Homers kept their hopes alive with a crushing 30-run win against Noradjuha-Toolondo, delivering a hammer blow to the Bullants' title charge in the process.

It wasn't easy-going for the Pigeons, with the perennial powerhouses forced to recover after Tony Caccaviello (2-20) and Matt Combe (2-25) wreaked havoc with the new ball.

At 4-16, a rout was on the table, but Paddy Mills had other plans.

The young bat steadied the ship with a crucial 37*, allowing big-hitters Craig Britten (31) and Jarred Combe (21) to push Homers to 6-107 at the end of their innings.

The Pigeons couldn't find early wickets but squeezed their opponents out of the contest.

Stuttering at 2-26 after 10 overs, a tall task fell on the Bullants' middle order.

The soaring asking rate would draw one big shot too many, with Simon Hopper (3-12) the main beneficiary of questionable strokes.

Jarred Combe continued the spin assault, toiling away economically until he suddenly found himself on a hattrick.

The milestone wouldn't come, but figures of 2-11 off three overs were a nod to the Cec Hopper medallist's class.

Only a vital late-order contribution from Josh Beddison (18) steered the Bullants to 8-77.

Noradjuha-Toolondo meets Jung Tigers in the final Twenty20 round, needing a win to have any hope of reaching the final.

The Bullants sit third, level on points with second-place Homers, but trailing significantly on percentage.

Homers host Rup-Minyip, with a win all but securing a grand final place.

To make matters interesting, Rup-Minyip could sneak in to the grand final should they secure a mammoth win against Homers and Jung Tigers beat Noradjuha-Toolondo.

West Wimmera also remains an outside chance thanks to its handy percentage. The Warriors need to beat Horsham Saints comfortably, hope Homers beat Rup-Minyip and Noradjuha-Toolondo scrape home against Jung Tigers.

The Tigers have the luxury of a bit of breathing space, sitting at the top of the table, though only a win will keep their fate in their own hands.

However, the Tigers enter the match in good form after beating West Wimmera in a final-over thriller at the weekend.

The Warriors opted to bat first and asked for big runs from their top order in the absence of the free-flowing Alexander brothers.

Trevor Polkinghorne (26) stood up but found little support from his teammates as Codi Kenny (4-19) sent them back to the sheds with debilitating frequency.

A late flurry of runs from Tim Braendler (26*) helped the hosts to 7-101.
