“Defence won the game for us, Tom Duggan, Nick Van Der Poel and Cody Byrne were all strong in defence,” Bell said.
“The final will be the first time Assumption/St Joseph’s has played St Columban’s for more than a decade. They beat us in a final 11 years ago.

Coach Anna Hardy said her team could not have done any more to press their victory claims.
“We had minimal errors and some 50/50 calls went the other way but the girls played really well,” she said.
Assumption has won six of its first eight games so far in the championships in Rockhampton.
