Tomorrow afternoon at TIO Stadium, St Mary’s and Nightcliff will compete for the opportunity to meet PINT next week in the grand final qualifier.
The Saints boast arguably the best playing list in the competition and will enter this contest as firm favourites.
With players like AFLW star Danielle Ponter, Jemma Iacono, Janet Baird and Jo Miller – who was close to best-on-ground in the NTFL representative game – they face an imposing task for any opposition team.
The two teams have met twice this season with the Saints victorious on both occasions – by nine points in Round 1 and 26 points in Round 10.
The Tigers are unlucky to have lost a handful of talented players due to injury throughout the season. But they remain a consistent side across the paddock with star midfielder Maighan Fogas and Christy Landwehr headlining the group.
Mickayla Ward has had a strong season up forward having booted 31 goals from 12 games while AFL-listed Ashanti Bush remains a player who could potentially break the game apart.
With the amount of talent that St Mary’s possess, this shapes as a game where everything will have to go right in order for Nightcliff to win.
Tune into NT News / Kommunity TV to watch all the action live tomorrow evening from 2:15PM ACST.
