Macuata fullback Apisalome Waqatabu helped himself to fifteen points as the Northerners stunned reigning B Division champions Malolo 35-8.
Waqatabua opened the scoring in the with a penalty before the Macuata forwards bulldozed their way over for prop Nelisoni Malipo to claim the try.
Further first half tries to Saimoni Peka and Rupeni George compounded Malolo’s misery as the only first half response they could muster was a solitary penalty to Bativunilagi Baleiono.
The Northeners continued their dominance in the second half as tries to inside centre Sevina Nanuku and Waqatabu saw then run out convincing winners.
The scoreline an indication of their total dominance of the fixture.
Macuata will now meet Ra in the B Division Final next Saturday in the curtain raiser to the third BSP Farebrother-Sullivan challenge.
