Although the Lady Eagles were able to break onto the scoreboard with a behind, the Bulls held on to lead by three points at half time.

In the final term the Bulls’ Monique Criddle broke through to score the first goal of the match.

What followed was a succession of majors for the Bulls and when the final siren sounded, they were 4.6 (30) to a 0.1 (1) upset victory.

Michelle Parsons, Chloe Barclay, Kathryn Jennings, Jessica Healy and Kian Fancote were stand-outs for the Bulls..

Lady Eagles shining lights were Candice Skinner, Darliah Killer, Lyla Pindan, Nellie Pindan and Latifa Banjo.

Elsewhere, the Saints solidified their finals spot with a 4.8 (32) to 2.0 (12) victory over the Derby Tigers, while the Cable Beach Greenbacks dominated with a 15.8 (98) to 2.1 (13) win over the Bidyadanga Emus.
