A reinvented Tigers outfit have bounced back following a disappointing 48 point loss to East Fremantle in Round 8 with a convincing 78 point victory over West Perth on Sunday afternoon.
From the very first center bounce, Claremont were in complete control.
Immediately winning the opening clearance, they wasted no time kicking off proceedings. Chloe Colegate showcased her diversity as a quick midfielder with an ability to play forward by slotting the first major of the game with a classy snap around the body. Within a matter of mere minutes, team-mate Angel Hayward slotted the next two goals of the match and debutant Mary Smith-Bin Omar even managed to sneak one through just seconds before the quarter-time siren.
Following yet another quick goal from Hayward to open the second term, West Perth were goalless and looked like they didn’t have a response to the dominant tigers. The Falcons were quick to respond, finding an avenue courtesy of a goal from Chloe Metcalf.
