the newlyweds v vicious & delicious
Welcome back to the comp Vicious & Delicious and welcome back to Bridesmaids who have returned after their premiership victory last season and have aptly renamed to The Newlyweds. Both teams are missing some players this week and have had to call in some fill ins. The first quarter was strong by The Newlyweds, straight away getting to work on building a lead. The second quarter saw Vicious & Delicious continue to play their strong steady game, unimpacted by The Newlyweds attempts to run away with it. The tactic worked to their advantage as they slowly clawed their way back to within a goal with 4 minutes left in the game. Injury to a player for The Newlyweds giving Vicious & Delicious extra hope that this game could be theirs. With the ball going back and forth, Vicious and Delicious were able to level the scores with less than 2 minutes of playing time remaining. Level scores, 12 seconds on the clock, one last centre pass and Vicious & Delicious have 2 quick attempts at goal, and they win their first game, 17 to 18.
