Star Magpie Jaye Bowden finished with three majors in his 200th match, while young Tiger Hugh Dixon showed his class with a five-goal haul.
Tigers were just five points behind at the last break, but once Aaron Cornelius’ fourth-ranked men sparked into gear, the match was all over.
It was the Pies’ 11th victory of the season and the Tigers’ 13th loss.
