QLD scored the first goal of the first quarter, with the score going goal for goal. SA levelled the score to 3-all and followed with a fourth goal, but QLD soon retaliated with sharp shooting from Ameliaranne Wells. SA fought back to take the lead 10-9 at the end of the first quarter with some quick passing in the SA goal circle. QLD began the second quarter strongly, scoring the first goal, with centre Claire Haigh providing good passes and moving the ball quickly down to QLD’s goals. SA stayed in the game with accurate goal shooting and despite trailing at the beginning of the quarter, was level with QLD 17-all the end of the quarter. QLD once again scored the first goal of the third quarter, and efficient passing in the midcourt allowed QLD to score again after a goal from SA.
