The Wollongong Saints capped a perfect return to the South Coast by claiming the Women's Premier Division title on Saturday.

The Saints - who were undefeated since coming back from Sydney - claimed a 13.8 (86) to 1.0 (6) win over the Bulldogs at North Dalton Park.

Saints midfielder Caitlin "Noodles" Williams told the Mercury that it was a great feeling to win.

"It was awesome," she said.

"We've been training really hard for this and all season we were undefeated, so we didn't want to choke at the last hurdle. But we got the win today and it's great.

"We've come back to Wollongong, on our home ground, and showed them how it's done."

Forward Gabrielle Biedenweg-Webster, who finished the game with three goals, said she felt "bloody good" to win the title.

"The girls played really well today, it was good to see everyone kick a goal," she said.

"I played with the Saints when we won the 2017 premiership and I came back to play this year after I've been in Melbourne. It's great."

While it was a physical contest from the outset, it was the Saints who quickly grabbed the upper hand and were able to hit the scoreboard.

The Saints scored four goals in the opening quarter to establish a huge early lead at the first break. Goal scorers included Catherine Stanton, who was a standout performer in the early stages.

However, the lead came at a cost, with Ashleigh Rae limping off the ground due to a leg concern. The Bulldogs also had injury issues, with Grace Leeds also assisted from the field.

The Saints started the second quarter in perfect fashion, winning the first clearance with Kim Chan setting up a leading Biedenweg-Webster, who marked and kicked truly.

The Saints continued to press hard, but the Bulldogs defence - led by Luisa Marzetto - proved resilient.

However, the Saints continued to pile on the pressure, keeping their opponents trapped in their defensive half.

And, finally, that pressure told, with Georgina McDonnell finding some space and nailing the goal from 40 metres out to stretch the Saints' lead to 38 points.

Minutes later, Stanton received a free kick for a high tackle and was able to coolly slot the goal from the boundary line.

At half time, the Saints led by 7.4 (46) to 0.0 (0). Caitlin Williams and Stanton were among the Saints' standouts in the first half, while Kustiani Tuckerman led the Bulldogs in the midfield.

Any chance of a comeback was snuffed out early in the third quarter, with the Saints kicking two goals in the first few minutes - including Biedenweg-Webster's third.

But, finally, there was some consolation for the Bulldogs, with Kyrsty Bishop nailing their first goal of the day. However, that was quickly cancelled out by another Saints goal.

After a scoreless period, Lucy Nolan was the next to score, kicking truly from out wide to nail the Saints' 11^th goal.

The Saints led 11.5 (71) to 1.0 (6) at three-quarter time.

As they did in each quarter, the Saints were able to get the fast start, this time through Sally O'Donoghue.

The Saints continued to press hard and were rewarded when defender Georgia Leach drifted forward to kick the team's 13^th goal of the afternoon.

It was the last goal of the game as the Saints secured victory by 80 points. At the post-game presentation, Kate Stanton was named player of the match.

Saints coach Anthony O'Donoghue said his players deserved credit for a strong performance.

"The girls played well and executed the game plan. I just like the way they moved the ball and backed each other up the whole time" he said.

"I thought we were in control from the start, but the Wollongong Bulldogs kept coming. It wasn't an easy game, we had to keep working hard to get that score."

Bulldogs coach Peter Anstice credited the Saints for being the better team on Saturday.

"They are a very quality football team, they've been the benchmark all year," he said.

"We were just happy to go out there and have a crack. It was some tough football and we made them earn it. I couldn't be happier with the girls - their effort, their enthusiasm until the final siren was fantastic.

"They got away to a really fast start, up by 40 or 50 at half time. We then got a goal, slowed them down for a little bit in passages. But their class and experience shone through in the end.

"But hopefully we can keep most of the group together and see what next year brings."
