The Crows were never in the race for the points, with the Goannas picking up an easy 77-13.
MCUE finished the home and away season as minor premiers, with Leeton-Whitton's senior netball coach Rachal Broadbent tipping them to take out the competition in 2020.
She said while the Crows fought hard on the weekend, the Goannas were just too good.
"Every time we got the ball down our end, it just ended up going straight back down to theirs," she said.
"There were some good passages of play from our girls."

Towards the end of the match the Crows changed things up completely, moving players into positions they've never tried before.
"We didn't have anything to lose, so we thought 'why not'?" Broadbent said.
"In saying that, a lot of the girls did adapt really well and I was quite impressed."
A grade was unable to qualify for this year's finals series, which gets underway this weekend.
B grade is the only Crows netball outfit to contest the finals in 2020, but a loss this weekend against Turvey Park would see them eliminated.
Broadbent admitted it had been a strange seasons thanks to COVID-19, but said the Crows would be back in 2021.
"It's going to be another rebuilding year, but we've got a lot of really great younger players coming through, which is really good," she said.
