The Picton Magpies have maintained their undefeated record this season as they used some very impressive skills, in defeating Sea Devils 10-3.
The Magpie's were forced to prove them selves, as the Sea Devils took it to them early on the night, with Magpies going goal for goal early on.
The first quarter ended with the Magpies leading narrowly 3-2, thanks to three goals to Merriam Ratcliffe before the defence worked her out of the match, while Siobhan Clayton and Jillian Howe kept Sea Devils right in there with one each.
The scores became lop-sided with the Magpies team scoring four goals in the next period, Lachlan Simpson three, and Jack Twist both scoring.
The Sea Devils didn't want one team really dominant, if it wasn't them.
They wanted to make it a good match, so the Devils kept giving it their best.
In the third period the Magpies were kept to a goal each, with their scoring added to by Jack Twist, while Sea Devil's Madeline Lisle scored for them.
The last quarter saw each team going hard, with the Magpie's scoring two unanswered goals, Alex Peters and Jack Twist scoring a goal each, to take their team's total to 10 and the final 10-3 score line.
Best and Fairest 3 to Jack Twist 2 to Rose Chandler and 1 to Merriam Ratcliffe.

During the next period the Cane Toads didn't have many shots at goal, as the Wombats defence stopped most of the attacks.

Snappers put the bite on Sharkettes
The young Snappers continued to show that they are capable of playing with a bit of bite in this competition by defeating the Sharkettes 8-1.
The score was very even with the Snappers only leading at 1-0 at the end of the first quarter, after Dougal Kelly had posted the only goal for Snappers and Sharkettes had been kept scoreless.
The Sharkettes were not able to penetrate the tight Snappers defence, as they managed to keep them to just a goal, by Angelica Pickup, while Snappers posted two more goals themselves, both to Jock Sowter, who is finding the net well.
The period after half time was not so even, the Sharkettes kept taking the ball up but Eddie Webbeck was very good in goals and was blocking the shots well.
