In the A Grade netball, as with the senior football, Wandin have been a nemesis of Monbulk’s for over a decade as the Hawks had not been able to register a win against the Bulldogs since 2010. The game was hotly contested and it was only a break that Wandin managed to establish in the second quarter that ultimately proved the difference between the two sides.

In C Grade it was great to see the return of Sammy Beecroft after missing three years due several knee reconstructions from her junior football days. Unfortunately the girls didn’t make the most of their scoring opportunities against the third placed Wandin side.
