I'll beam a bit more tomorrow if they win their other grand final.

She also plays for South Morang in a local domestic under 19's "A" grade with another group of girls. They finished on top of the ladder, won the second semi final 47-20, so hopefully they can make it two in a row. They won this one last season.
