Saints to meet Hawks in Division 3 battle of the skies

Glen Eira proved far too strong for La Trobe University as they solidified a grand final spot against Hawthorn with a 74-point victory at Garvey Oval.

Leigh Stevens (five) and Julius Waras Carstensen (four) combined for nine goals as the Saints refused to allow the undermanned Trobers a look in.

Mitchell Gleeson was a notable omission for the Trobers after he had received the goal kicking award as the section leading goal kicker with 76.

Matthew Cassidy and Roman Zemlinsky starred for the Saints, while Ben Rose and Andrew Barrett chipped in with two goals each.

The Saints will now meet Hawthorn in next week’s Division 3 Grand Final, with the two sides 1-1 head-to-head after the home and away season.
