Duhaney Park Red Sharks picked up a seventh successive title after overcoming GC Foster Angels 24-16 in the JRLA Grand Final, at the Duhaney Park mini stadium.
Angels seemed poised for an upset when they led 10-8 at half time, however, the experience and composure of the Sharks showed in second half and, led by national star and MVP Jenson Morris who claimed a hat trick, they hit the front with 15 minutes left - Ryan Grant landing four goals.
For the Angels, winger Adrian Thomas bagged two tries and Dylum Davis one, Stephen Scott and Kareem Harris each kicking a goal.
