LADY ROOS ATTACKED BY SHARKS
The Lady Roos were unable to do what Mick Fanning did, and that’s beat off the Sharks. The Roos faced off against Hillside in the EDFL Women’s Premier Division Semi Final at Windy Hill, and it was pretty much one way traffic. The Sharks circled early keeping the Lady Roos to 1 point, and leading by 13 at the first change, The Roo Girls reduced the margin to 7 points at halftime, before the Sharks went in for the kill, keeping the Lady Roos scoreless for the remainder of the game, running out winners by 34 points.
