A CONSISTENT and team approach saw Wangaratta fall to Yarrawonga by just seven goals on Saturday.
The home side stepped up their intensity, pressed the issue when they had the advantage and showed signs of their ability to handle Yarrawonga’s fierce pressure but ultimately the Magpies couldn’t match the Pigeons’ superior scoring.
Yarrawonga led all game; a three-goal margin, 15-12 at quarter time was increased to a nine-goal buffer at half time, but the Magpies clawed their way back closing to six goals down at three quarter time, and within four goals late in the fourth and final term, but the Pigeons lifted and pushed the final margin out to 57-50.
Amanda Umanski lifted her game while opposed to reigning Toni Wilson medallist Hannah Symes scoring 33 goals at 79 per cent, while coach Kellie Keen was also accurate with 11 goals from 13 attempts.
Keen was her side’s best player through the attacking half, setting up high percentage shots for her shooters and then finishing off the midcourt’s hard work when it was her time to shoot.
Keen was backed up by wing attack Chaye Crimmins who set up a number of strong looks for her shooters with accurate passes.
