;D

I'm hoping to get along to the game and having Tayla in the team should make for a more exciting contest.

The commentators certainly made the most of the incident but it seemed pretty innocuous to me.

Indeed. It was quite clear that she did not hot Randall in the head, but in the shoulder: look at the way Randall holds herself. She doesn't hold her head: she gets up and kicks the ball. Then she runs off looking like her shoulder is sore.

I think this is our strongest side all year. Fingers crossed we can get one over the cats and cement our spot atop the ladder in conference b

Two wins in a row would be great, go blues.

So far not so good. Half way through the 2nd qtr and we are still on zero....0.0.0.

Other mob only has 1.3 though.

EDIT: 0.1.1 Harris ran into an open goal, no-one around her and somehow missed!

[Jack Burton]

And she had a teammate by herself in the goal square, very ordinary piece of play

It was and there was. Either way though she could've just walked into the goal square as there was no-one in sight. I'm stuffed how one could possibly concoct a way to actually find a way of missing.

1.6 at halftime, 3 of them hit the post. 2 of them from within 10m, including Harris running into an open goal square.

Add to that the free kick to Harris that we took advantage of and duly kicked the goal, only for it to be called back. Handed off to Prespakis who kicked it out on the full at right angles.

We had all of the play that quarter, but didn't have the composure when it was required. We could have easily been 4 goals up.

Lets hope we keep that momentum going into the last quarter....and we'll eat up that 4 point deficit very quickly.
