Friday Night @ the Dome saw the pies get off to a good start with Rocca banging a big one through, as the first qtr went on the pies extended their lead with one of the goals of the year from the Brazilian Harry O. The Saints pegged the pies back towards the end of the qtr and took a slender lead into qtr time. The second was similar to the first, quick moving exciting football. The Saints got out to a 14 point lead before the skipper lead from the front and kicked one from outside fifty. Thomas finished off a great first half for himself by putting the pies in front on the bell.
The third was controlled by the pies, it contained a now custom Leon Davis goal from the impossible and went through and finished with a dubious free/goal to Lockyer.
The last qtr was again the pies, however the ability to kill off a side was absent again, Didak kicked a goal which put them 16 points clear with 15mins to go however they couldn't continue as the Saints pilled on the pressure. The pies held up in a tight one by 9 points. Best players for the winners include; Didak, Burns, Davis, Thomas and Bryan.
