The Palmerston Magpies have scored their first finals win in six years as they comfortably downed the Tiwi Bombers in a wet eliminator at TIO Stadium.
Tiwi had made account of Palmerston in their regular season meetings, but fitness came to play this time around with the Bombers the more fatigued as the match wore on.
The Magpies resisted a flurry of Tiwi goals in the final quarter as Tatyana Perry scored four of her own, securing an impressive 10.7 (67) to 3.6 (24) win.
PREVIEW
The Palmerston Magpies and Tiwi Bombers both narrowly missed out on playing the senior women’s finals last season, but now they’re in and want to make an impact.
The NT News and KommunityTV will stream every moment of this clash from 2.15pm on Saturday.
Last times these sides met it was a thrilling one point win for the Bombers, surviving a late, prolonged assault from their foes at Cazalys Arena.
It was a stark difference from their earlier meeting on Bathurst Island where Tiwi ran away with the win and a sign the Magpies will be a danger side come finals.
Palmerston have plenty of talent in their ranks led by Ella Ward, who’s one of the premier rucks, and the ever-exciting Marika Carlton.
The Magpies are great at creating chances for themselves, but have sometimes fell awry due to accuracy in front of goals this season, an area that would have helped give them a win against Tiwi.
The Bombers are a side that know how to create chances too and with plenty of firepower across their side, they’ll be positioning to claim their third win against Palmerston this season.
Maria Rioli is chief among those exciting options, well aided by the likes of Arthurina Moreen and Freda Puruntatameri.
The full match replay will be available at the conclusion of the game.
The NT News and AFL Northern Territory have come together in a partnership to live stream both the men’s and women’s Premier League games for this TIO NTFL season.
