    Happy birthday, Eliza: Young Pie seals last-gasp thriller over Saints

    AAP

    ELIZA James' last-gasp goal has secured Collingwood a two-point win over St Kilda at RSEA Park.

    The Saints nearly pulled off a massive upset on Saturday, but the third-placed Magpies held them off in a fierce duel to win 4.12 (36) to 5.4 (34).

    James celebrated her 19th birthday with a superb snap from an acute angle that bounced through, giving the Magpies the lead.

    The Saints and Pies clash in round six of the 2022 NAB AFL Women's Competition

    That left the door open for the Magpies and set the scene for James' match-winner.

    The Saints out-pressured Collingwood with 73 tackles to 60, but the Magpies had more poise and they held their nerve.

    St Kilda's Hannah Stuart was best afield with 25 disposals and two goals, while their key-position player Kate Shierlaw kicked a goal in the last term and was mighty with her marking and pressure.

    Collingwood's Jaimee Lambert gathered 21 disposals, while teammate Ruby Schleicher had 20.
