The Saints ended the Two Blues season with a strong seven-goal opening half, not that other results went in Barellan's favour anyway.

The Saints saw off a strong challenge from the Two Blues to run out 10.13 (73) to 9.6 (60) winners at Barellan Sportsground.

North Wagga coach Cayden Winter was pleased with his team's effort but also gave credit to Barellan.

"I thought we went really well," Winter said.

"Barellan played out of their skin, obviously they had a lot to play for today, on their home deck in front of a big crowd, it was a good physical game and they brought the heat, which is good, coming into finals."
