September 14, 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n

The South Burnett Saints have done it … bringing the Premiership Cup home to Kingaroy in just their third year back in the Darling Downs AFL competition.<\/p>\n

The Saints were keen to erase memories of last year\u2019s Grand Final 49-point loss to University.<\/p>\n

This time around they faced the Dalby Swans in the Division 2 Grand Final, one of the few teams to have given them any trouble on the paddock during the 2015 season.<\/p>\n

The Saints and Swans have played each other three times recently, with South Burnett winning one of the encounters easily, just scraping home in another and losing the third.<\/p>\n

In the Grand Final clash, played at Toowoomba’s Heritage Oval on Saturday, the Saints got off to a breakaway start.<\/p>\n

They led by 34 points at half-time after a great display of goal kicking by Dylan Bowater who booted home four majors.<\/p>\n

But\u00a0 by the end of the third term, the Swans had sliced into the margin, with the South Burnett just ahead 8-6 (54) to 6-10 (46).<\/p>\n

The Saints fought back after the change, fending off Dalby’s fightback and limiting them to just one behind before the full-time siren.<\/p>\n

The final score was 10-9 (69) to 6-11 (47).<\/p>\n
