A DOMINANT performance from Whittlesea’s senior women in division 3 saw them run out 46-point winners over Montmorency on Sunday.
Travelling to the Magpies’ ground, Whittlesea were keen to build on their momentum following their hard-fought win against Macleod last weekend.
Able to move the ball more freely this week, the Eagles leant on their captain Audrey Steinke once again, and she produced two goals in another standout performance.
Forward craft from Chloe Hicks was rewarded with a goal, and she joined Steinke in the best alongside Kaila Vangeli, Harper McPherson-Goulding, Ivana Pecanac and Ashley Fitzpatrick.
The win showed Whittlesea at its stifling best again, making it two games out of three where its opponents haven’t registered a goal for the entire match.
It sits at the top of the division 3 ladder with fellow undefeated sides Eltham and Epping close behind.
Languishing further down the ladder, it was another disappointing result for Laurimar who was beaten by Epping by three goals in an away fixture.
Isabella Zanussi kicked the first and only goal of the opening term, but the Power couldn’t maintain the scoreboard pressure as the Pingers poured on four straight majors in the second and third quarters.
Co-captain Sarah Campbell kicked a consolation goal in the last, cutting the margin back to 17 points before two behinds to the home side capped off a 33-14 win.
Rai Chambers, Brittany Zahra and Breanna Dyer were some of the best for the Power.
This week, Laurimar heads to Darebin where a first victory of the season beckons, while Whittlesea will play Epping in a top-of-the-table clash at Epping Recreational Reserve on Sunday.
