From The Captains
Emily Worpel – Grovedale
(We're) really excited to have the opportunity to play in another Grand Final.
I think Ammos have been the benchmark for so long now in our competition and will be a really tough opponent.
If we can go out there and play our brand of footy and focus on what we can control, I think we give ourselves every opportunity to take it home.
Cleo Sharp & Mel McNamara – Geelong Ammos
We’ve prepared really well and focused on the things we need to really narrow in on leading up to this Grand Final.
We believed we would get there and we got there, so now it’s putting all we’ve worked on throughout the year into practice and we are just excited for the opportunity.
Division Two - Geelong West Giants vs South Barwon
It is fitting that the two sides that finished top-two on the ladder with 13 wins apiece will met in the Division Two Grand Final at 2.30pm on Sunday.
South Barwon will enter the game with confidence after securing their Grand Final spot with a 25-point victory against the Giants the last time they met in the Qualifying Final.
The minor premier responded in emphatic fashion with a dominant 58-point victory against Newtown to setup a mouthwatering final game of the season between two highly competitive outfits.

From The Captains
Heather Wilkie - Geelong West Giants
I think it will be a really good match.
We need to go back to our game, be a little bit cleaner as a team. I think we showed that in the prelim so hopefully we can bring that into the Grand Final.
Caitlin Mullen-Beagley & Ruby Cook - South Barwon
We've had the week off but we are excited, nervous, lots of different feelings amongst the group but mostly excited.
It's certainly a nice feeling. By a fixture quirk we hadn't played them since Round One where they beat us by six goals I think. So, it was really nice to face them (Giants in Qualifying Final) to get an idea of what we will be up against.
