Well, our campaign is now underway! With less than an ideal preparation leading into our first game, we knew we were going to have a really tough match ahead of us. The Cougars are all class and we knew we would be pushed to our extreme.

The game was really tough with a lot of big contests between players. Although we didn’t win, there were some real positives to take from it. Danny and Keanna played absolute blinders in the defensive circle while our youngster Poppy also did a great job in our attacking end.

Although the score might have looked a little like a blow out, we needed to break it down and realised that the difference between us and the Cougars last night was only 4 turnovers each quarter and that’s the beauty of the game.

Personally, I feel as though we will come out firing today against the Lions, another strong and well round Brisbane team. We have all had some good rest so our preparation will be much better leading up to the clash this afternoon.

The Claws are out!
