Randwick had all the running in the first quarter with both Mitch Rose and Dimitri Garoufalis looking dangerous up forward, the Saints took a 42 point lead into the first break.
The second quarter was a massacre with the Saints kicking goals for fun. Nine goals to zero in the second quarter and Randwick to a 100 point lead into half time.

The last quarter was party time for the Saints kicking a further three goals and finishing victors by 127 points.
