The Bombers made a hot start to score the first five goals of the match, catching the Roos off guard in the opening term to lead 13-7 at the first change.
Harrow-Balmoral responded in the second term, clawing its way back into the contest to get within two goals midway through that quarter.
Noradjuha-Quantong stemmed the flow of Roos’ goals however, netting five of the last six majors of the first half to take a 21-15 advantage into the main break.
In a tight start to the third term, the Bombers eventually broke away, stretching their lead to nine goals at one point.
At the final change, Harrow-Balmoral had its work cut out for it, trailing by seven goals.
That deficit proved too tough to reel in the Roos, as the Bombers stretched their lead, eventually winning 34-27.
Delaney Wills scored 18 goals for the Bombers, while Bree Sinclair netted 16.
Louisa Vague was named best-on-court after a strong performance in goal-defence.
League best and fairest winner Sherryn Simpson tried her best for the Roos, scoring 21 goals.
Bombers’ coach Nat Bourke lauded the performance of Vague, and said it was a positive display from all players across all four quarters.
“Everyone put in 110 per cent effort so it was really awesome,” she said.
Captain Sarah Scully was pleased with the way the side started the match.
“The last two times we played Harrow we didn’t get off to the best starts,” she said.
“We were really confident that we could do it but we knew we had to be on from the start.
“I was really proud of the girls because in past games sometimes when it’s not working, it’s easy to drop your heads.
“No one did that today, so it was awesome.”
