The Eagles playing before an enthusiastic home crowd were on the board quickly, James Kitchener and five eighth Luke Kerin surging over in the first ten minutes.
Yeoval had a bank of football and Coolah were forced to defend phase after phase and even after the home side lost a man to the sin bin they managed to break through with winger Trent Lees going over then centre Trent McGovern steam rolled his way through the defence to score easily. James Aimy wasn't missing with the extras and Yeoval led 28-0 at half time.
The second half began with Coolah looking better and replacement winger Peter Weis rattled Yeoval to race over with Jace Russell landing the conversion and for a short time the visitors threatened.
But the next 30 minutes was tight Yeoval defending stoutly and Coolah unable to break through and when they eventually broke the advantage line dropped ball gave their opponents football and flanker Eli Kinscher didn’t need a second chance and stormed through the defence twice just before full time with ultimate ease and the Eagles were again at home a force to be reckoned with, they head to Dubbo to decide who hosts the grand final.
