After the interval St Andrews started to get into the game, and only a brilliant save from Blair denied the hosts a foothold in the game.
The back three of Fiddes, Carnell, and Watson dealt well with the St Andrew’s attacks, and from a counter-attack, Branston’s neat pass teed up Fisher to complete his hat-trick.
The goal knocked the hosts out of their stride, while a great run down the left from Jones set up Fisher to smash home his fourth.
