The battle between the two teams ended with the Mounties thumping their opponents and winning the game 84 - 7.
The Mounties have performed strongly this season with the team only losing two of their games throughout the competition.
The day was also special because Mounties captain Will Chamings celebrated his 50th game with the club.
Players from all four Ararat and District Junior Football Association clubs formed a guard of honour as the 13-year-old ran onto the pitch.
Chamings should have celebrated his 50th game last year but COVID-19 disruptions stopped the milestone event.
He is also currently leading the association's goal-kicking tally.
