LVFNL Round 12 Netball Review | Maiden Gully YCW nets points at Mitiamo

BY NATHAN DOLE

A GREAT run by Maiden Gully YCW Eagles in the Bendigo Bank Loddon Valley FNL’s A-grade netball competition kept rolling on Saturday at Mitiamo’s John Forbes Oval.

In the rematch of last season’s grand finalists it was the Adam Boldiston-coached Eagles who scored 64-55 win against the Superoos.

It was a crucial test for the Jen Wilson-coached Mitiamo which had been beaten by 19 goals at Marist College Bendigo in the third round.

On Saturday the Mitiamo line-up lifted its scoring output and also played well defensively, but the reigning premier had the answers.

Marong was under pressure from Newbridge at Beck Legal Riverside Oval in Newbridge.

The Sue Borserio-coached Marong Panthers clawed their way to a 59-53 victory against the Selina Holland-coached Newbridge.

Bridgewater marked another home-court win against Inglewood.

The Aimie Brown-coached Mean Machine won 44-34 against a Blues’ team  which is jointly coached by Helen Ward and Dianne Wayman.

Bears-Lagoon Serpentine could not halt Pyramid Hill’s charge to victory.

The Stacee Burns-coached Bears did well to pass the 30-goal mark, but it was the Gemma Scott-coached Pyramid Hill which netted a 55-32 victory.

Calivil United had the bye.
