Nightcliff and Pint continued their winning ways to sit 2-0 apiece at the top of the ladder, while Southern Districts and Tracy Village are the cellar dwellers and Palmerston Magpies had a bye.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Nightcliff 8.6 (54) defeated Waratah 3.11 (29)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An excellent start bode well for Nightcliff, latching onto their early momentum and building throughout thanks to Waratah\u2019s inaccuracy in front of goal. While Nightcliff failed to score in the final term, an excellent four-goal third quarter allowed the Tigers to run away with the solid 25-point victory, staving off every attempt from the Warriors. Nightcliff\u2019s <\/span><b>Emma-Lou Wolsey <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">proved she was more than capable of holding down the front-end once more with three more goals added to her tally, and was assisted by <\/span><b>Mickayla Ward <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Jacqueline Anyon-Smith <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">who booted two majors apiece. For Waratah, <\/span><b>Jenna Singh, Lisa Roberts <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Jordan Smyth<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found the big sticks, with the latter named in the best among <\/span><b>Eliza Straford<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Isabella Rapson-Staropoli<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Tracy Village 1.3 (9) defeated by Wanderers 10.11 (71)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was a great return from the Wanderers after last week\u2019s effort, this week putting 71 points on the board to run away with an excellent 62-point win against the Razorbacks who had a couple of issues getting a score on the board once more. That being said, Tracy Village did not let up throughout and were only beaten well in the first and final quarters where they allowed the Wanderers to boot four apiece. For Tracy Village, <\/span><b>Indianna Hughes <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">booted the lone goal in the final quarter and was named among the bests alongside <\/span><b>Kiri Marschall<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>Kaitlin Battel<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Sarah Wilson<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; who was back in the best this week after last round. For the Wanderers, <\/span><b>Kaitlyn Armstrong<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was just about unstoppable out the front with five goals on the board, aided by <\/span><b>Aleesha Hobbs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Tasheena Rankine<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> who booted two apiece and <\/span><b>Georgia Halkitis <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Djimila Totham <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">who were named in the best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Pint 4.4 (28) defeated St Mary\u2019s 2.5 (17)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was a low-scoring thriller between Pint and St Mary\u2019s, with the former gaining the early ascendancy and the latter fighting back well in the third to draw even on 15 points apiece at the final change. While both sides contested hard in the final term, it was Pint who were able to not only capitalise on their forward 50 entries but also pull away, eventually running away with the 11-point victory.<\/span><b> Jasmyn Hewitt<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> booted two for Pint, joined by <\/span><b>Amy Chittick <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Cara Evans<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> while <\/span><b>Kati Streader <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Cassie Henderson<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> were both named in the best. For the Saints, <\/span><b>Danielle Ponter <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Madison Harris <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">booted a goal apiece &#8211; both in the second half &#8211; while <\/span><b>Tesharna Maher <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><b>Ash Melnikas <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">were named among the best in the low-scoring matchup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Darwin Buffettes 11.5 (71) defeated Southern Districts 3.4 (22)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Darwin Buffettes started their season with a quality win over the reigning premiers, obliterating the Crocs by 49 points with a 30-point final quarter effort getting the job done. The Crocs were outplayed for much of the game, unable to compete with the feisty Buffettes outfit and having little opportunity to put scores on the board. <\/span><b>Machaelia Roberts<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was a huge target as ever up forward for the Buffs and was a force to be reckoned with alongside <\/span><b>Zoe Anderson<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, booting four goals apiece and providing multiple options. Roberts was named best on ground for her efforts whilst <\/span><b>Molly Althouse<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was also solid for the victors, and three individuals put a goal on the board for the winners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Picture:<\/strong> Aaron Black\/AFLNT Media<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ROUND 2 of NTFL Women\u2019s Premier League saw a huge super Saturday of matches, with all four games producing some solid performances and three matches finishing in blown out scorelines.
