The former Steamers captain said although Rotoiti had the easier game compared to Te Puna and Opotiki - Greerton were always a threat.
"Greerton are no slouches, we can't take them lightly if the last couple of weeks are anything to go by. They've rolled some big teams this year."
Te Puna face the biggest challenge of the three teams with the blue and blacks hosting competition leaders Te Puke at Maramatanga Park.
A major impediment to a Te Puna victory will be Te Puke first five Nick McCashin, who kicked 12 from 12 conversions against Whakarewarewa last weekend.
Opotiki also have a battle on their hands hosting Tauranga Sports at Princess Street Reserve. Tauranga have won the Baywide six times since 1999.
However, as many have learnt this season, Opotiki are hard to beat on their home soil. Their forwards back down to no one and they have genuine class in the backs with the likes of Te Amo and Te Hata Wilbore.
Pride is all that is left for Whakarewarewa and Mt Maunganui at Puarenga Park. Both sides promised so much but delivered little this season and it will be about trying to finish on a high.
Waikite are division one bound next season but travel to the Western Bay to play their final premier game against Rangataua.
The division one title race is a lot clearer, with Te Teko just having to defeat cellar dweller Reporoa to clinch the fourth playoff spot. Rangiuru and Paroa booked home semifinals a couple of weeks ago, with the Kahukura match-up with Marist St Michaels likely to decide whether they finish third or fourth in the qualifying competition.
In other division one games, Rangiuru should prove too strong for Whakatane Marist, Poroporo will be expected to beat Ruatoki, with Paroa meeting Ngongotaha in the Eastern Bay.
The colts home semifinals are on the line in the last round of the age-group championship round robin play. Te Puna who share a narrow lead with Tauranga Sports, should book a home game next week, when they play bottom of the table Marist St Michael.
Mount Maunganui will be favoured to beat Greerton Marist to advance to the post section play, while defending champions Te Puke Sports need to beat Tauranga Sports to guarantee a semi-final berth.
The colts division two playoffs see Rangataua host Opotiki in the Western Bay with a Rotorua derby between Waikite and Kahukura on the other side of the draw.
