Wonder Women v Moulin Rouge

Well, this was an interesting game.

Wonder Women were actually supposed to play a different team this week, but with every team except Moulin Rouge suffering from a shortage of players, the draw was mixed up so the two teams with 4-5 players each played each other, and we played Moulin Rouge.

Luckily for everyone in the league, Moulin Rouge showed amazing spirit before the game even started by giving up 3 of their players to ensure that 2 games could be played. Wonder Women only had 6 players, after our fill-in Lisa hurt herself in the drills before the game. Moulin Rouge supplied us with uber pick up Sophie and agreed to play with 6 players so that both teams could have a sub. Thank you Moulin Rouge!

I can’t actually remember much of the game, other than the fact that there were always options available for passes, and there were a lot of points with good flow down the field.

We got away to an easy lead, and at half time the score was 8-4 our way. However, the on-field play was very even, so much so that at half time Sandra thought that Moulin Rouge were winning!

However, after half time Moulin Rouge came out firing and bam, bam, bam, the score was 8-8. At this point I was pretty worried and could not believe we had turned a 4 point lead into a nail biter finish!

Luckily we stepped up under pressure, and well, I guess all I have to say is that when I picked up Adam from BPL, I was much happier than he was!

Final score 11-8 to Wonder Women! Yay for our first win!

MVP:
