THE Wangaratta Knights headed over to Mooroopna on Sunday, 1 June with high hopes for the Ladies League Tag match against the CSU Mud Dogs. The sun was shining, and all teams were geared up for a competitive day. Unfortunately the Knights concluded the match with a defeat, the Mud Dogs scoring 22 points against the Knights 0. Illness and a tight bench were initial factors countering Wangaratta’s girls, but as the game went on, it was obvious where the ladies needed improvement in their strategy. Leaving the field with their heads held high, the Wangaratta Knights women take it back to the drawing board over the next two weeks, with a competition bye for the King’s Birthday Weekend. “It was a well-earnt win to the CSU ladies who are a well-drilled and hard-working team,” ladies coach Sally Kaiwai said. “We have a lot of work of to do, but I’m confident our 2025 team will continue to grow in strength and confidence.” Round six sees Wangaratta facing the Tumbarumba Greens at the Glenrowan Recreation Reserve on Sunday, 15 June.
