Replay: NSW v VIC (Gold match)—Marie Little Championships Day 3

New South Wales made good on its promise to bring the Marie Little Shield back 'home' with a dominant display at Brisbane's Nissan Arena.

Quick out of the blocks, the Blues established an early five-goal buffer which was never clawed back by their rivals, as they cruised to an 18-13 win in the final.

South Australia’s Isabella Ivanvic-Holland was named tournament MVP after she helped pilot her state to the bronze medal with a 31-15 win over Western Australia in the third-place play-off. 

In the feel-good moment of the tournament, Tasmania picked up its first ever win on the Marie Little Shield stage on Sunday morning, beating the ACT by four goals to finish in seventh place.

DAY 1 REVIEW

Victoria has made a bulldozing start to its Marie Little Shield title defence while perennial heavyweights New South Wales flexed their muscle on a massive opening day of the national tournament in Brisbane.

Victoria blazed out of the blocks against a willing Tasmanian side, winning 49-8 before backing that result up in the afternoon with an impressive 33-4 triumph over Queensland.

Queensland had earlier taken the fight to rivals Western Australia, but ultimately fell 31-10 in their tournament opener.

Western Australia made it two-from-two to start the tournament, backing up that effort with a 38-2 win over Tasmania to set up an exciting final round clash with fellow undefeated rivals Victoria.

South Australia also finished the opening day of the tournament undefeated, with the red army picking up a 40-3 win over the NT before taking down the ACT 53-2.

They will take on a rampant New South Wales side who scored a combined 96 goals in their opening two games of the tournament, with big wins over both the NT and ACT as well.

The tournament continues with third round matches on Saturday morning, before a pool crossover round and into the semi-finals on Saturday afternoon.

WHO ARE THE CONTENDERS

With every state involved for the first time, it has the possibility of throwing a real spanner in the works in the hunt for the Shield.

The Victorians proved too strong for NSW in the final last year, and will be determined to clinch back-to-back Marie Little Shield titles for the first time.

But they will have their work cut out for them being joined by tournament hosts Queensland, Western Australia and MLS first-timers Tasmania in Group A.

Perennial contenders NSW will head up Group B which features South Australia, Northern Territory and the ACT.
