2019 round 13 @ Windy Hill
We lose Georgie Patrikios and debut some replacement chick called Alana in the “23rd player” slot for juniors.
By this stage Ugle has broken her leg, and Nalder is fill-in captain. As part of the Towards Zero road safety program, she drops a 3 and wears 0 only.
Quigley knows the script vs the Saints, and kicks the first goal. DeMatteoooooooooooo is right in there after her. And then Quigley again! And then DeMatteooooooooooo AGAIN!
We lead 24-3 at quarter time, and wind isn’t a big factor. Pffft indeed, I say.
Stepnell marks at the top of the goal square! It’s 30-3: WHAT IS HAPPENING?
In the last ten minutes before half time the Saints wake up, and at the main break we only lead 30-22.
The second half starts well, as Jess Stassi snaps a goal from forty out on the boundary.
BRING BACK THE TIWIS NEXT YEAR, EFC.
And then another by her! 43-28 we lead at the final break.
Saints kick three straight goals in the last, and then, with a minute left… this happens.
CBomb needs to make the Saints pay the ultimate price this Sunday.
We lost but it was absolutely us as a team announcing we can beat anyone: the other teams we don’t fear . Two weeks later we smashed top-of-the-ladder Kollingwood.
