After the first three weeks, UTas stands at a respectable 3-0.
Week one consisted of a feet-finding game in which we trailed for large sections, but came back strongly in the second half.
Week two we showed a bit more cohesion, and after gaining an early lead, we extended it toward the end and took the game.
Week three started in fine conditions. A balmy still spring night welcomed us at the Uni ground, and we took advantage of winning the toss to score the first point. We quickly extended our lead to 4-1 on the back of some effective long throws, and our greater depth was telling. We pulled out a zone for a couple of points, getting swift turnovers and scoring from them, then forgot about zone as we put decent pressure on Team 3, and made the most of the turnovers.
After a period of dominance, and being 7 points up at one point, UTas took their foot off the pedal and let some good flow from team 3 in to score a few points, but scored enough to hold on for a five point win, 12-7. UTas had great input from everyone, but Nic Jansen in particular stood out with some solid D, great catches, and good positioning. Sophie Edgar also had a great debut, effecting a turnover in the endzone that UTas took down the other end to score.
