Emmaus came out hard in the opening stanza, their defence repelling the attacking flair for which TCC are renowned.

They were on the board first, when lock Mattice McLeod crossed in the 11th minute.

TCC hit back within minutes and took a 10-6 lead into half-time.

“We are up for the challenge and are super-stoked to be in the grand final.”

“A lot of that will come down to Dominique Saunders, Lilla Pratt, Sophie Barnes, Mattice McLeod and Hannah McCrohon leading us around,” she said.

Emmaus College lock Mattice McLeod.

“Our hard-working forwards in Stevie-Lee Dixson, Addison Carlyon, Hannah Jamieson and Tasmyn Boody will power us up the field. We will look to work off that back of that effort in eyes-up footy.”

“The girls played really well against Grammar, they really hit their straps,” he said.

“I’ll just be asking for more of the same.

“They are very skilful and I want them to always back themselves, their skills and their ability.”
