************* FULL TIME ****************

 

With that the Cyclones win the Minor Premiership. Lightning are still in with a chance no matter the result of the next match though. However if the Chiefs lose to Pacy their fate is out of their hands, all they can do is win and hope the Chiefs slip up. If Pacy lose then their Round 10 match decides the 3rd placed team and a draw between Pacy and Chiefs could still see Lightning come 2nd.
