THE Clayton Magpies secured fourth spot and a Southern Football League Division One finals chance with a 67-point win over the Highett Bulldogs.
Ash Manson booted five goals for the Magpies in a standout performance.
Leading at every change, the Magpies never looked like being challenged by the flat-footed Bulldogs.
The Magpies play bottom side Murrumbeena this Saturday, but the match will serve as a confidence-booster heading into the business end of the season.
Only five percentage points separated third and fourth spot and a healthy win this week may push the Magpies as high as third position.
The Division One finals will be played at Springvale Reserve on Newcomen Road.
