For MVG, it was a simple task as he eased past Nathan Aspinall in a whitewash 6-0 win with a 101 average. It is a fifth weekly final of the campaign for the Green Machine who seems destined for the play-offs already after failing to win the league in recent years before Finals Night.

While for Price, he saw off Dobey in a 6-4 win with an 86 average, two 180's despite 28.6% on the outer ring from 'The Iceman'.

The first two legs were shared and it was the missed doubles that handed Dobey a 2-1 lead but Price came back to silence the crowd at 4-2 up with an 80 checkout.

Dobey came back to within one with a 97 checkout at 5-4 but a decider wasn't on the cards as Price sealed the deal in style going single 20, double 16, double 12 for the win.
