2015 AFL Sydney Women’s Representative Team – Match 2

After a decisive win over AFL Canberra on 12 April 2015, AFL Sydney Women’s team took on a strong outfit in the return match on 5 June at Blacktown’s International Sports Park in the Women’s State of Origin series on Saturday afternoon.

The Canberra side was far too good for the Sydney-siders, running out 38 point victors.

Sydney controlled the match early taking a small lead into the first break. From after that though it was all Canberra, outscoring the Sydney side nine goals to one for the rest of the match.

As the series ended at one all, Canberra retained the trophy due because they had been previous winners.

AFL Canberra 1-0 4-1 8-2 10-3 (63)
AFL Sydney 2-1 2-2 2-3 3-7 (25)
