Milestones:
2 - Christian Petracca
The Demons took a lead into quarter time, before suffering a seven goal to two run in the second term that left them 23 points behind at the long break. A third quarter revival handed them back a narrow lead, which they still held in the dying minutes when Jack Watts kicked the winning goal. A Pies goal after the siren dragged the margin back under a goal, but it was too late.
Best were Petracca, Jones and Hunt.
