Deniliquin 38 defeated by Rennie 46.
A very frustrating game with the girls trying to hold their own against the very physical Deni side. Hannah Shoppee and Brooke Knight played flawlessly in defence and showed just how clean and respectful a defence duo should be.
Brylee McCarty had to hold strong in WA and took many knocks, but came out on top and played well.
Ella Rhodes again worked hard in goals and Sophia Shaw provided strong drives in attack.
Assistant coach Brooke McDougall provided strong defensive pressure all game and helped with many turn overs.
The coaches are very proud of the resilience and discipline. Well done.
Awards: ClubMulwala - Brylee McCarty, One Zach - Brooke McDougall, Wingate's Sports - Ella Rhodes, Mulwala Bakery - Sophia Shaw and South of the Border - Hannah Shoppee.

Deni 57 defeated Rennie 15.
A hard hit out this week with so many girls away. Deni was a strong defensive team who were a pleasure to play against.
Maddy Phibbs played a great game in defence and swapped to the other end to learn some new skills.
Kayla Oughton and Celine Collins-Bye were strong and worked hard endlessly in GD and GK.
Let’s all get back to strong training and skill work.

Deniliquin 42 defeated Rennie 26.
Rennie took on top of the ladder Deni Rovers on Saturday and did themselves proud.
Only a 3 goal lead for Deni halfway through the second quarter gave the girls some confidence that they were beatable but unfortunately with very experienced players and accurate goalers they took it away.
The girls have shown major potential and remain super competitive against the whole league.
Awards: Showcase Jewellers - Alison Thrumble, Yarra Hotel - Rach Guppy and Mulwala Bakery - Hayley Wilson.

Deniliquin 39 defeated Rennie 21.
The girls had one of their best games this season, coming in only 3 goals down at half time.
The ball flowed down the court and into the ring with the amazing work of both Amys always being there for the pass and Lacey’s unstoppable running.
Lenni always getting her two hands on the ball and into the ring. Sheryl consistently managing to get around the defence to get the pass to get her shot.
Lizzie assisting with shooting and great mid court work. Jazz and Burkey really holding their ground in defence helped to get a few turn overs. A great game and fun had by all.
Awards: Miss Dolly - Melinda Burke, Yarra Hotel - Jasmine Burns, Bundalong Tavern - Amy Webber and Publicans Daughter - Sheryl McBurnie.

Deniliquin 35 defeated Rennie 25.
A disappointing game for the girls this weekend with a lot of decisions and physicality not going Rennie’s way on the court.
The coaches would really like to commend the girls on never dropping their heads, playing skilful and poised netball that allowed for the Hopper girls to showcase why they have been so hard to beat this far into the season.
With speed and determination Deni weren't able to take the ball and run, they had to force their passes into the ring over the Rennie defence who weren't letting up.
And the Hoppers mid court were settled, controlled and made the best decisions to feed into quick footed goalers.
This is the game that the team will use to reflect on in the coming weeks and use as the fire to keep the girls working hard from here on in!
Awards: Ricky D's - Sophie O'Dwyer, Rhodes Family - Scarlett York, Redback Waste - Georgia Phillips and Mulwala Bakery - Jemma Adkins.

Deniliquin 12 defeated by Rennie 31.
This week the Rennie girls were full of nerves and ready for a tough game coming up against 3rd on the ladder. This week was the defenders game, with Heleena and Lucy working exceptionally together and never giving up.
This teamed up with the back up from the rest of the girls on the court showed everyone how well these girls work not only as individuals but as a team.
