The Pirates powered away from the Bulls in the second half. After a slow start to the season the Ben Witchard-coached Old Bar side have now moved to 15 points on the ladder, one shy of Taree City.
However, Old Bar will face a big challenge on Sunday against second placed Port Macquarie at the Port Macquarie Regional Stadium. Taree City will also have to work cut out against Wauchope in the game at the Jack Neal Oval on Saturday.
