They had significantly more marks then Coorparoo did, but Coorparoo had far, far more tackles then the Red Lionesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sally Young<\/strong> led the disposals for Coorparoo that day with 17, while Hunt lead the disposal count that day for the Red Lionesses with 19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This weekend starts a big week for UQ, with three games coming up in a short stretch of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, after this weekend\u2019s game against the Kings UQ need to back up again on Wednesday night to catch up their Round 8 game against Maroochydore that had to get postponed due to the wet weather. This means they will certainly be trying to avoid any injuries against the Kings so they can make it through this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other matches this weekend, Maroochydore also start a big week of matches when they take on the ladder leaders Southport. Aspley and Yeronga South Brisbane will both be hoping to bounce back from last week&#8217;s losses when they battle out at Graham Road, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-qafl-women-s-round-11-fixture\">QAFL Women&#8217;s Round 11 Fixture<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Southport vs Maroochydore<br>Coorparoo vs UQ<br>Wilston Grange vs Bond University <br>Aspley vs Yeronga South Brisbane<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-dc-block-dc-mention _dc_mention\"><div class=\"section-heading_wrap\"><span class=\"section-heading is-small\">Mentions<\/span><span class=\"hor-border\"><\/span><\/div><ul class=\"js-overflow-list overflow-list\"><li class=\"js-dropdown dropdown overflowed\"><button class=\"btn btn-icon-only\"><span class=\"icon btn-icon\">\n                    <!-- icon - plus circle - 20px-->\n                    <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 20 20\">\n                        <path d=\"M15,9.28h-4.3V5h0A.72.72,0,1,0,9.28,5h0V9.28H5a.72.72,0,0,0,0,1.43H9.28V15a.72.72,0,0,0,1.43,0h0V10.71H15a.72.72,0,0,0,0-1.43Z\"\/>\n                        <path d=\"M10,0A10,10,0,1,0,20,10,10,10,0,0,0,10,0Zm0,18.57A8.57,8.57,0,0,1,10,1.43h0a8.57,8.57,0,0,1,0,17.14Z\"\/>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/span><\/button><div class=\"popover\"><div class=\"popover-content\"><ul class=\"popover-menu\"><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHILE some leagues will enjoy a break over the Queen&#8217;s Birthday long weekend, the QAFLW will not, so fans have a full round of exciting football to enjoy with their feet up.
