Do you know if both games can be watched on the vixens page? Or will we need to switch to the thunderbirds stream?

[Ian Harkin]

All games are on there and the Vixens YouTube as well.

Giants 16 – T’Birds 11 at quarter time.

Oh no, first Colin ad of the year.

T’Birds were ahead for the first part of that quarter, but Giants edged closer and then made a few Super shots to pull clear.

Feeds to Austin by Dwan, Horjus and Williams aren’t great.

[JR]

#1354295

35-26 to Giants at Half time.

Supershots the major difference, but T’Birds attack still a bit off, but better with Caldwell.

How do you pronounce the first syllable of Caldwell? Cold or card?

[D-fencr]

#1354296

It’s spelt Cardwell, no Caldwell. So it’s the latter – Card-well.

[JR]

#1354297

Thanks D-fencr. I actually googled her name spelling it Caldwell and it came up with a few articles including an article from a newspaper with her name spelt with that third ‘l’.

Should have gone to the T’Birds page which spells it correctly.

[JR]

#1354298

45 all at 3/4 time.

Differences were Sterling on at GK, Wilson out to GD and Cardwell out to GA.

[D-fencr]

Cardwell and Austin is a nice little combo. Not as energetic as having Dwan out front but a lot more controlled as a result.

Similar looking uniforms again. Annoying.

[Ian Harkin]

#1354301

Tippah Dwan nails a super shot on the buzzer to win the game for the Tbirds.

[JR]

#1354302

Dwan gets a super shot on the final buzzer and T’Birds win by 1…. 59 -58.

Giants played 3 TPs.

I agree about the uniforms Ian. Took me a few minutes to get used to them.
