Beast 18 - 15 Bees
Game started with Beast pushing a high line and Ali scoring first while Bees were defending well. Jakub was brilliant on the hussle and Bees played on the break and raced into a 4(Seanx2, Jakub, Bogey)-1 lead before Cam caught the Bees defence napping and hit 4 in a row to put Beast ahead. Not to be undone, Brendan hit a hat trick to regain the lead and Bogey added another to bring scores to 8-5 to Bees with less than 5 minutes remaining in the half. Ali hit back will a well taken double and Beast drew level through a (un)fortunate OG at 30:00 on the dot to tie the game at 8 apiece.
Second half started much quicker for both sides, but the strategy was turned 180 with Bees constant on the attack and Beast defending deep. Vit opened the scoring for Beasts with a well taken goal before Bogey replied, the first via a sprint down the left after being sent through by Brendan and the second a well taken shot when teed up on top-D to put Beast ahead.
Thereafter the game was a bit scrappy, crashes etc. started to creep in with Cam(x2) and Ali capitalising to bring to give Beast a 12-10 lead. Bees levelled through goals from Sean and Bogey but that did not last long, Cam and Ali both replied with a couple each for the Beast as the third quater approached and Brendan got another at 45 minutes to end the quarter 16-13 to Beast.
Bogey grabbed another double to narrow the deficit to a single goal with 12 minutes of the game remaining with Beast defending very deep and Beez pushing very hard for the equaliser. The game was very well balanced at this point and could have gone either way had Bees got an equaliser but two late goals from Cam, the last with 2 seconds remaining sealed it for Beast.
