Hoping to go one better this year the Merewether Carlton ladies team have advanced to the Hunter Women’s Grand Final this Sat 14 August at Passmore's Oval (kickoff 4.30). It has been a up and down year for the ladies team that has seen a number key players out due to Pregnancy (an unavoidable injury if your in a ladies team) that has meant other players have had step up and take on leadership roles. The finals series has been a roller coaster with a convincing loss in the major semi final and a strong performance against University to advance to the Grand Final.

This Saturday an entire year of preparation culminates in a rematch against Wanderers ladies in the Grand Final. It will be a tough contest Wanderers ladies have been unbeaten all season however Merewether ladies have shown that when the big games are needed they always step up using their teamwork as strength to never give up.

Newcomers to Merewether ladies this year include 16 year old Nomi Medlin playing at fullback, and also a recruit from Sydney University women’s Dr Monica Chew at outside centre. Merewether ladies dominate in scrums and set prices and hopefully on Saturday this will provide a strong enough platform to go forward and dominate the contest.
