Game Report:
South Australia has begun their DealsDirect.com.au 19/U National Championship campaign on a high, defeating Western Australia 35 � 24 at ETSA Park on Wednesday.
Leading at every change, South Australia always looked like comfortable winners, delighting the home crowd in the process.
South Australia had a majority of possession in the first quarter, much of it enjoyed by Lyndall Crichton, who ran riot at centre.

In the second term, South Australia picked up where they left off, with Laura Marslen and Laura Packard combining to great effect up front.
Despite their best efforts, Western Australia could not match the intensity of South Australia, who shot to a 20 � 11 half-time lead.

Western Australia carried their good form into the final term, fighting hard all over the court.
South Australia had their moments too, with goal keeper Kate Shimmin spectacularly denying the Western Australian attack a number of goals.
