The Basin booked its top four berth with a strong 3-1 win at Sharman Park.
The match also marked Sam Leedham's 600 game for the Roos and victory would have been the perfect way to cap the stalwart's milestone game off but it was not meant to be.
As the match was critical for both teams, the first half was a tense and tough affair.
Neither side, despite having many opportunities, could find the back of the net in the first term.
A goal to Dane Mcginn at the 50th minute of the match seem to ignite the Red and Whites.
Goals to Brenden Hobbs and Tim White capped off what was a memorable win for the Basin.
Illaroo never stopped trying, as shown by Alex Cheyne's goal at the 79th minute.
Culburra will not feature in the finals series after its 6-3 loss to Bomaderry at the Culburra Oval.
The Cougars, to get into the top four, needed to win and have other results go its way.
The Tigers blasted the Cougars off the park with a 6-3 victory.
Bomaderry held a 3-2 lead at the break and went onto record a solid victory.
In a danger sign for the other finals contenders, Brendan Kellett was dominant and kicked four goals for the Tigers.
Sam Baxter and Brad Bailey were also on target for the Tigers.
Rhys Mooy was in nice touch for the Cougars with two goals and Roy Miller also found the back of the net.
The officials were kept busy and handed out seven cautions.
Huskisson Vincentia bounced back from its surprise last round loss to Callala to smash the Sussex Seahawks 7-nil at Thompson Street Sporting Complex.
Keeping their opponents scoreless would have pleased the Seagulls' coaching staff the most.
The visitors held a 3-nil lead at the break and went onto record an impressive victory.
Lewis Archibald, Gary Masterson, David Hampton and Jack Mayhew were the only listed goal-kickers for the top-of-the-table Husky.
Shoalhaven United is building up nicely and heads into next weekend's finals series on the back of an 8-nil win over Manyana
The Bears were far too strong, as the score suggests, at Lyrebird Park and will be a definite team to watch in the finals series.
United took control straight away and had a 3-nil lead at the break.
Kaine Good and Alex Rogan each got a brace for the Bears, while Jaxon Forrester, Luke Kellett, Shaun Aldous and Ryan Rigg also joined the goalkicking fun.
Shoalhaven Heads Berry ended a bleak season on a bright note with a 2-1 win over Milton-Ulladulla at Vic Zealand Oval.
The Sharks celebrated when Christopher Agar kicked a goal to give the home side a late victory.
Late into the match, the score was locked at 1-all and Agar's match-winner came at the 91st minute.
Tyler Simmonds also kicked a goal for the Sharks, while Milton-Ulladulla's goal came from Jarrod Murray's boot.
On Saturday Husky will take on the Tigers for a place in the grand final, while Untied and the Basin play on Sunday in the elimination final.
