KALANGADOO has gone through the 2017 Mid South East Netball Association A Grade season undefeated and will be a tough outfit for Hatherleigh to defeat in the grand final at Nangwarry today.
The Magpies appear to have the game in the bag, but they will not underestimate the Eagles.
Hatherleigh trailed by 18 in the second semi-final, but was unsettled due to injury.
Emma Laucirica slotted into the circle well with Keston Green.
Laucirica’s speed in and around the circle will keep Kalangadoo defenders Narelle Ryan and Jasmine Croser on their toes.
Kelsey Wight has had an impressive start to the finals series and will have a solid challenge ahead when matching up on youngster Eliza Hunter.
It is no secret Sarah Faulkner is carrying a calf injury, but her determination and tenacity is well match to centre Jayde Peacock.
Shauni Cunningham is a creative play maker and Helen Hamilton will ensure she works hard for every possession.
Melissa Russell and Abby Duncan are a formidable goal combination and Annabelle Brooks and Maddie Redman will need to rebound strongly when the rare shot is missed.
Both teams have an extensive and capable bench who can slot into any position on the court, which will mean all players will give their all while on court.
While this will be the closest grand final for many seasons, Kalangadoo will claim the victory.
