We are pressing up very hard, even before you consider the wind.
Perkins takes her first mark for Essendon, 51m out.
They get over our press, but get a bad bounce on the chase. JaimeeLee clears.

Please don’t press up too hard into this wind.
Marshall yet to come on.
0-7

Jayda runs to make a nice bump.
Molan rotating back.

The wind might be worth 5 scoring shots so I’ll take that.
FCFC mids running a bit too free for my liking.
