The last two frames were shared as Paul Hawkins beat Jason Misfud while Scott Waring lost to Stephen Mangion for a well deserved victory to St Georges at 16 frames to 8. The Lions made far too many errors in this match and could easily have won it if they took those chances, but St Georges did what they needed to do and having quite a few Internationals in their side made the difference in the end.
