After a slow start against Padua College in the preliminary final on Friday afternoon, St Laurence’s found themselves down by 22 in the opening 20 minutes.
A flick of the switch in the second term allowed them to regain control of the match before securing a tight 5.8 (38) to 5.1 (31) victory and setting up a 2023 grand final rematch.
Just 12 months ago PBC walked away as AFLQ Schools Cup champions in all four senior divisions, which included a 44-point downpour against St Laurence’s in the senior boys decider.
After finding themselves on the back foot early, St Laurence’s captain Cooper Mataia said he was proud of how his side adapted in the Padua game.
“We really zoned off to start the game, so the message at quarter time was to lock down and focus on our defence,” he said.
“We had two early injuries which made us shuffle things around, but we switched to a man-on-man system and quickly got back into the contest.
“We’ll be keeping things slow now until Sunday, but it’s cool to be in a grand final rematch.”
