2022 SSN ROUND 1

Great work by Lewis to draw that contact penalty. Looks to have improved her footwork this year.

Lewis is a great addition to Vixens. But I’d still take Eddy off to try someone else to stop that feed going in so easily from Dunkley.

I also think Moloney’s chances of being in the Diamonds over JLP would be strengthened if she had recent good form in a second position.

The second quarter was better from Eddy. I think she only gave away one penalty compared to 5 in the first quarter. That built pressure and they kept Firebirds to 12. Eddy rewarded Simone’s faith in that quarter but she needs to keep it up. With her height her hands over pressure is great but only works when she is in play. Would Mundy be tight enough in defence on Rav?

Commentators talking about Watson and Austin both liking the centre channel…..maybe that’s contributing to Austin being more tentative than we saw her in Giants pre injury.

Mi Mi on for Dunkley.

Austin looks nervous on the shot to me. Her court play was okay. Couple of poor passes but she is new to the team and didn’t have a full preseason on court so understandable. Overall took some pressure off Liz from having to take every second pass. Now with Rahni Liz will do more through court but Rahni is much more confident to post.
