Sydney University Bombers returned to their customary place at the top of the Sydney Women’s Division One AFL ladder with their 57-point win over Wollongong Saints in a catch-up Round 3 match at North Dalton Park on Saturday.
The Bombers kicked 10.8: 58 while restricting Wollongong to a solitary behind, with Stephanie Walker bagging two goals and Jennifer Lew, Megan Andresen, Olivia Warren, Pippy Rose Clegg, Lara Creber and Tammy Callaghan also posting majors.
The back-to-back wins over Newtown Breakaways and Wollongong in the past two weeks came after the shock 27-point loss to Western Wolves in Round 4, which ended a 35-game winning streak dating back to the start of the 2013 season.
Sydney University head the ladder on percentages from Newtown Breakaways after six rounds, with Western Wolves and UNSW-Eastern Suburbs Stingrays making up the top four.
Round 7 will see the Bombers hosting Macquarie University at St Paul’s College Oval, with an 11am kick-off this Saturday.
