Just one goal separated the two powerhouses at the final whistle as Colbinabbin claimed a 43-42 win.

The Grasshoppers led by three at both quarter-time and half-time, before their advantage had been whittled back to one at the final change, setting up a gripping last quarter where the two sides went goal-for-goal.
