"At the moment, we're just trying to digest the game. Certainly, from a
player and staff point of view, we're really proud of the way we've
progressed this year. We think North Melbourne are certainly a very good
side and a likely premier … we certainly had our chances, but some
decisions and some skill errors really cost us."
– Collingwood coach Steve Symonds

The Age(Collingwood captain Steph) Chiocci said her side had made big strides this season but knew they were capable of even more in 2021. "I spoke to the girls and said this is one of the first times I've had real confidence in our group," Chiocci said. "That's no disrespect to our past, it's more what we have [built] here. We are feeling like a family and it's not surprise we are playing like that. "We have some ups and downs but it will hold us in good stead for the future." 7news | AAP Flag favourites North Melbourne have survived a huge scare to advance to the AFLW preliminary finals with a thrilling two-point win over Collingwood. Magpies star Chloe Molloy had the chance to win Saturday afternoon's arm wrestle with a set shot 90 seconds before the final siren. But the kick from 40m sliced off the outside of her boot and failed to score. North Melbourne defended desperately in the dying stages and a match-saving mark from Jasmine Garner at centre-half back helped them to cling on to a 5.4 (34) to 5.2 (32) win at Ikon Park. Collingwood News NORTH Melbourne has snatched victory over a dogged Collingwood, progressing to the preliminary final with a thrilling two-point win. The fondly named "premiership quarter" proved to be the difference for the Kangaroos, hauling back the lead from which they were never headed in the 5.4 (34) to 5.2 (32) win. The two sides traded blows in a tense final term, with Roo Sophie Abbatangelo surprising herself by nailing a low snap from the boundary before Jordan Membrey – who is yet to kick a behind in 10 attempts – coolly converted.The Pies peppered their forward 50 in the frantic dying minutes, Jaimee Lambert missing a hurried snap, Chloe Molloy's set shot falling short before former Magpie Jasmine Garner stood tall with a contested mark. |
