Rochester did enough to get the points against arch rival Echuca.
With the Tigers a lock for a top two, coach James Flaherty will have the opportunity to do some experimenting to prepare for the finals.
Some of the club’s middle tier players - Dillon Williams, Nathan Marrone, Nathan McCarty, Mitchell Bright, Nicholas O'Connor and Trent Bacon stepped up to the plate to ensure the Tigers got past the Murray Bombers.
For Tatura, the likes of Lee Warnett, Daniel Maher, Billy Lovel, Rian McGough, Liam Borrelli and Nathan O'Reilly really tried hard against the tide last week.
