Western Australia 4.6 (30) defeated Queensland 3.9 (27)<\/b><\/p>\n

Western Australia recorded a brilliant come-from-behind win at Domain Stadium. Queensland led at every change but after being kept scoreless in the last quarter, Western Australia ran over the top by just three points. <\/span><\/p>\n

AFLW Academy member, <\/span>McKenzie Dowrick <\/b>was named best afield for Western Australia, and was complemented by fellow Academy member, <\/span>Sabreena Duffy. <\/b>Duffy also got a goal on the board, which brought Western Australia\u2019s deficit to 10 points. She was complemented by <\/span>Mikayla Hyde, <\/b>who scored two majors, and <\/span>Kate Bartlett, <\/b>who scored one. Bartlett\u2019s goal was a crucial one, as it gave Western Australia the lead for the first time in the game, which ultimately delivered the win. <\/span><\/p>\n

It was a brave effort by Queensland, whose goals came from <\/span>Charlotte Hammans, Jemma Abbott <\/b>and <\/span>Georgia Brehmer. Dee Heslop <\/b>was named best-on-ground for Queensland and was complemented by <\/span>Lily Postlethwaite, Kitara Farrar, Lauren Bella <\/b>and <\/span>Zimmorlei Farquharson.<\/b><\/p>\n

This time, it was <\/span>Ahlani Eddy <\/b>who was judged best afield for NSW\/ACT, but AFLW Academy member, Alyce Parker and the best-on-ground in NSW\/ACT\u2019s first hit-out against Tasmania, Georgia Garnett were not far off the mark. <\/span> Although there were no goalkickers for Tasmania, there was still a host of impressive performances. <\/span><\/p>\n

Backing up their solid performances from their last match against NSW\/ACT were Tahlia Bortington, Hailee Baldwin, Libby Haines, Netty Garlo and Mia King. They were complemented by <\/span>Elise Barwick, <\/b>who played a solid game against NSW\/ACT. <\/span><\/p>\n
