GWS Giants keep AFLW finals hopes alive with win over St Kilda
The GWS Giants have kept themselves within reach of an AFLW finals spot with a 20-point victory over St Kilda in torrential rain at Moorabbin.
Key points:
- The Giants scored more than half of their 45 points in the first quarter
- GWS forwards Cora Staunton and Rebecca Privitelli kicked three goals each
- The Giants are within one win of the finals spots with two rounds left
GWS forwards Cora Staunton and Rebecca Privitelli sparked the Giants as they adapted to the wet conditions better, booting four goals to none in a match-winning first quarter to run out 7.3 (45) to 3.7 (25) winners on Saturday.
Veteran Staunton, who turns 40 this year, and Privitelli were the game changers with three goals each.
