Tigers, despite the fight shown by Strikers they were no match for last year’s premiers.

The game between Strikers and Tigers in Division 1 women lived up to its billing, with an exciting 2-2 draw played out in front of a good crowd.

Tigers scored first through an absolute laser beam short corner shot from Kaitlyn Nisbet.

Tigers had the majority of the attack in the first quarter, but Chloe Boylan held her defence together and repelled a lot of promising attacks.

Strikers equalised in the second quarter with a short corner of their own to gun recruit Ash Dunn, and took the lead shortly after when a bouncing ball found the back of the net.

After finding themselves a goal down Tigers tried to mix things up a bit in an attempt to beat the ever amazing Kate Fabian in goals, and the equaliser finally came after sustained pressure through the midfield by Morgan Cooper lead to a terrific goal by Billie Jones. The final quarter was an arm wrestle with both sides looking to take the points, however no one could find the winner, leaving the result a fitting draw.
