The match was Leeton's final game of the season having not qualified for this year's finals series.

Leeton got out to an early 21-10 lead, but the Blacks were never going to make it easy, making a late charge in the cold and blustery conditions.

The Phantoms club as a whole also spent Saturday raising funds at No. 1 Oval for Riverina Bluebell, as well as hosting their annual sponsor's day.
