Breakers back on the winners list
Best Players: Jenna Russo, Kelly O’Neill, Imogen Bradford, Courtney Fletcher, Chelsea Connell and Sunday Brisbane.
After a couple of narrow losses Breaker’s coach Bianca Hellmuth/Pask urged her team to focus on a good start.
The team didn’t disappoint with Kelly O’Neill snagging an early goal from the netball courts pocket.
She followed up a few minutes later taking the ball from the ruck contest and delivering the Breakers’ second from virtually the same spot.
The home side made the most of the momentum with Sunday Brisbane and Immy Bradford getting in on the action.
In perfect conditions, the Breakers utilised their pace with Courtney Fletcher at half back and Carly Heislers on the wing providing plenty of run and carry.
Jenna Russo had clean skills around the stoppage and hit her targets all game.
The second half was a lot closer with Edi-Asp kicking their first goal for the match and the Breakers adding just three more goals to their tally.
Under more pressure the defence end held strong with first season players Tracey Johnson, Rachel Cameron and Aimee Beck shutting the ball down nicely on the last line of defence.
Final Score: Breakers 12.12-84 def Edithvale-Aspendale 1.1-7.
The Breakers are at Dalyston again next week Sunday June 5 at 11am against Karingal.
Best: Jenna Russo, Kelly O’Neill, Imogen Bradford, Courtney Fletcher, Chelsea Connell and Sunday Brisbane.
Goals: Kelly O’Neill 5, Imogen Bradford 3, Sunday Brisbane 2, Tracey Johnson and Kate Caughey.
