Ben VogesWeekend Kwinana Courier

It was an important game for both clubs who were undefeated after two rounds, but a dominating first term by Warnbro restricted St Norbert’s to just one goal.

In the second Warnbro added three more goals while keeping St Norbert’s scoreless.

The away team fought back in the third term, kicking five goals to Warnbro’s one, but the damage was already done.
