28-28 at 1/2 time.
Sophie Fawns is on now for Kelly Singleton. Housby scores the opening goal of the second half and Kumwenda replies.
Swifts have started off a bit shaky in the third Q and Vixens have a 4-goal lead.
This is tight! Vixens up 41-39, but Swifts are hanging right in there.
3/4 time: Vixens 42-41
Kumwenda 27/29
Austin 14/17Fawns 5/6
Housby 27/30Incredible from Sophie Fawns. She fumbled the ball and lost possession, but then went and won it straight back and scored on 3/4 time. What a game this is. Who wins from here?
Vixens running right away with this last quarter now. It’s just one-way traffic. Vixens 56-45 with 3 1/2 minutes left.
Enter Helen Housby with three straight super shots, but Vixens still up by 6.
Vixens win by 6!
Kate Moloney… 7 assists, 2 gains, 1 intercept, 5 deflections, 5 pickups, ZERO turnovers. What a game!
Performances like that will help Moloney’s Diamonds chances. Great at WD then went to C and outplayed Proud. Well deserved MVP.
Eddy came on wonderfully. Probably her best game of the year and shows she didn’t like dropping out of starting 7. Vixens really should try Eddy in GD. Weston was not great tonight and Vixens need an option when she isn’t on.
Swifts had no answer to Watson in WA. Moving Watson to WA brought MJ in to the game. Austin started to take strong drives and pull Turner off MJ leaving her in a one on one with Klau which she won.
Vixens need to learn how to defend the super shots. They are atrocious at it.
Really not sure why Swifts took either Singleton or Fraser off. Singleton was probably playing her best game. Fraser whilst not winning ball was tight on Watson whereas Smith gave her more space.
Disappointing last quarter from Swifts- they looked tired. Vixens did well to maintain their composure in the right moments.

Love MJ is able to get back into the game after a slow start.
I think the Swifts don’t need to bring Fawns on at half time every game. Singleton has improved a lot and I think she’s ready to be given the full 60. Obviously it’s great to have Fawns to use for impact, but I don’t think the midcourters adjusted well to the switch. If they want to get Housby out at GA they can just slot Singleton back at GS.
The beginning of the fourth was a complete mess from the Swifts, so many loose balls and just a step off the pace. Although I think Proud deserves the fourth CWG spot, I think Moloney has definitely proven that she offers more variety and better combinations than JLP and should be chosen.
Unfortunately Sunday Aryang is a late out for today’s game against the GIANTS under COVID-19 Health and Safety protocols. She will be replaced by Shannon Eagland from our Reserves squad.#greenarmy #unitedingreen #GOTGRIT #SSN2022 #SSNFeverVixens pic.twitter.com/zDvHx5QMB2
