PAT Magann has made the most of Wallsend's decision to bowl first and his limited availability in round six with a hat-trick among seven wickets as the Tigers dominated Cardiff-Boolaroo at Pasterfield Sports Complex on Saturday.
Magann became the first Wallsend player since 1978-79 to claim a hat-trick in Newcastle District Cricket Association's first-grade competition as the Tigers secured first-innings points and a 13-run lead on day one of the opening two-day round this season.
