MLC01: Amalia Lagabra

This week MLC01 had a great game, pumping Ascham with a final score of 6-3. Our try scorers were Cate Campbell, Maxine Hawkins and Eadie Scott, all leading the team to victory. The team played very well in attack, having strong sets of six and mastering new skills. Defence was excellent, defending in twos, and saving heaps of tries. Our player of the match was Riya Singh, strongly supporting the team in both offence and defence, noticeably improving every week. A standout in Riya’s game play was her timing in offence, allowing the team to make new ground every set.

MLC02: Annette Benn

This past weekend MLC02 faced Pymble in one of our best performances of the season. Although the game resulted in a loss of 0-2, the game was extremely even from start to finish with both sides creating multiple opportunities to score. ⚡️🏉

As a team we held our cool throughout, applying consistent pressure in attack. Though our attempts of scoring were not successful, as a team we demonstrated clear improvement in our ability. 📈🤝 

We stayed organised in defence. Several key touches on the wing prevented us from conceding more tries. The two tries we had conceded came from small moments rather than a sustained pressure from Pymble, demonstrating how competitive we were across the whole game. 

Overall, this game was a strong performance from MLC02, although the loss was disappointing, it highlighted how far we have come as a team and how close we are to turning these close losses into wins. 💙🩷

MLC10: Felicity McCormick

MLC10 delivered a strong performance against Kincoppal-Rose Bay, finishing with a 10–2 victory. From the start, our team controlled the game with fast drives, strong passing, and a great overall attack.

Our defence was solid for the whole game, we kept our line steady, covered when needed and didn’t give KRB many chances to score. Our pressure in defence forced KRB to make mistakes, which helped us turn the ball over and give us attacking opportunities.

Overall, it was a confident and well-played match, demonstrating the team’s effective teamwork on both attack and defence. A great win for MLC School!
