North Launceston came from fifth place at the start of the finals series to take out the 2012 Wrest Point State League Colts premiership in a thriller match, winning by just 2 points.
Launceston led by 3 points at half time and then both teams went goal for goal for the third quarter, kicking 4 goals each with the lead changing several times ending with Launceston still in front by 2 points going into the final break.
The final quarter was exhilarating with hard contests and Launceston dominated inside 50s but were unable to convert against the Northern Bombers dominating defence.
Ben Elmer kicked the winning goal for North Launceston.
