Thornton Eildon travelled to Yea this week, for a game they knew would be difficult in more ways than one. The Thornton team was short of players, and this only hindered them this week. However Louise Chapple is still proving excellent, shooting 12 goals, for Thornton. Their final score was 28. Yea worked well this week, taking advantage of Thornton’s position, and scored consistently. Cindy Hayes shot 20 goals, Tara Gregory shot 18 goals, and Rhiannon Aldous shot 16 goals.
Yarra Junction had a great win over Kinglake this week. The final score read 58-26, as Junction dominated their opposition for a good majority of the game. Rebecca Osiurak shot 35 goals, Georgie Stanke 15 and Leirna Kasso shot eight goals for Junction, while Claire McMahon shot 17 goals and Sally Nott nine. Powelltown continue to dominate, with Olinda falling victim this week to their endless abilities. Held at Olinda, no rain snow or wind will deter Powelltown. The final score read Powelltown 67, Olinda 24. For Powelltown, Samantha Hansen shot 37 goals, and Stephanie Broadway 30 goals. This a huge effort from the girls, as they worked well together for the game. For Olinda, Lucy Allman shot 18 goals.
Yarra Glen copped a flogging from Emerald this week, as the score read 14-66. Emerald really pulled together as a team this week, and it showed as they dominated over Yarra Glen. For Emerald, Beverley White shot 42 goals, and Kim Walker shot 24 goals. For Yarra Glen, Julie Thompson shot nine goals, and Tanya Moate shot five goals. The girls did their best with their opportunities; however the defence from Emerald made that very hard.
