This game was a tough slog against a Rennie side that was not to be underestimated.
We focused on continuing to chip away at the scoreboard and capitalising on any turnovers.
Once again, we finished stronger than we started, with momentum building in the last quarter as we headed into celebrating Ladies Day.
Claire Doyle and Alana Tyndall worked hard all day against very accurate shooters and were recognised with awards for their efforts.

What a fantastic game from the whole team on Saturday.
The effort and teamwork across the court were outstanding from start to finish.
Our shooters worked incredibly hard to convert opportunities under pressure and kept the scoreboard ticking over with some excellent finishing.
Down the other end, the defenders put in a huge shift, applying constant pressure and working tirelessly to limit the opposition’s scoring opportunities.
It was a complete team performance, with everyone contributing through effort, communication, and determination.
