If the umpirng is fair, we will win. 
From what I can see it won't be

Two HTB rules today. How what that HTB against Egan?

North have been dropping the ball in the tackle all day and no free yet we are getting pinged even when we dispose of it correctly  .

Umpiring a disgrace

[one-eyed]

These umps are on the take! 

Reid clearly whacked high and no free

26 - 27

Sensing heartbreak for the girls.  Umpires clearly hate RFC at all levels.

Ball up. Wakefield taken high. 30m out. Doesn't make the distance. Rushed through by Yassir.

 27 all.

Yassir was awesome pushing that through for a behind 

She was very smart which is rare in the girls league for some reason.
It was critical she knocked it over and she did. 

I’m still kinda shocked Wakefield didn’t make the distance.

Wakefield drops a sitter in the square

I notice she does a lot of the hard work to get in front and beat her opponent only to often then mess up the easy part and take the mark. Definitely can’t fault her effort or endeavour though.

Thought the Kangaroos were really dominant with ball movement especially in the second half. They were clean open and taking grabs all over the ground where we couldn’t catch a cold all game.

Wakefield our best mark was very close several times but couldn’t drag it in. Brennan was our only player that looked like she could take a grab today.

Ellie McKenzie reminds me of a female version of a young Dusty.

I think she has the goods to be the best in the game.

She is a ripper of a player. Strong as a bull and a beautiful long kick of the footy. One knock on her I’ve noticed is that she’ll sometimes carelessly miss an uncontested kick/handpass which for 90% of the comp you wouldn’t bat an eyelid but for a player of her skill level is disappointing.

Very young though and I agree she can well and truly be the best in the comp.

Anyway congratulations to our girls for not only making finals but for finishing top four.

We had a slow start some hiccups along the way but it’s been an excellent team effort to fight amidst with some crucial outs at times this season but they fought hard to make it and they achieved it. 

No expectations going into this finals series but if they keep up their pressure and can clean up our disposal inside 50 actually all over the ground then you never know what can happen 

Bring it on.
