Leading by five points at the final change, Kade Stevens’ line-up kicked 8.6 to 1.3 in the last quarter to run out comfortable victors.
Seiter dominated in the ruck while Johnson showed why Ovens and Murray clubs were circling by tormenting the Jindera defence.
Stevens had a huge second-half in the centre, Lachie Boyd turned back the clock in defence and John-Roy Williams played well on a wing.
Jeremy Luff held Trent Castles to one goal.
“We’ve worked really hard and I had faith in the boys running the game out,” Stevens said.
“The boys were sensational.
“Jindera took it right up to us and to finish like that was fantastic.”
Jindera youngtser Dylan Pettingill kicked three goals in a fine performance and Tom Weldon played well on Nick Brockley.
It was Jindera’s third successive grand final loss.
In a day of upsets, Rand-Walbundrie-Walla shocked Jindera, Osborne beat Holbrook in the thirds and the Giants capped off a fine finals series by defeating Holbrook in the fourths.
Meanwhile, Billabong Crows defeated Lockhart 46-32 in A grade with Brooke Morley best on court.
It was the Crows’ first flag in the top grade.
“I’m just so relieved,” coach Beck O’Connell said.
“To go through the season with only one loss is a great effort.”
