Beaconsfield went into the match full of confidence after great wins in previous weeks. Dingley however, proved to be a tough opposition, making Beaconsfield earn every goal. The defenders combined well to turn the ball over, however, the centre court and goalers found it hard to find space in a crowded attack end, but did well to win. Beaconsfield now has a couple of weeks off due to byes against Doveton and Keysborough.

The Beaconsfield defenders did a fine job to create many turnovers against tall and accurate goalers, while the centre court was patient and methodical in working the ball down the court. The Beaconsfield goalers, including Lauren Carey in her first Beacy game, combined beautifully, making the most of opportunities. During the last quarter Beaconsfield showed great fighting spirit by coming from three goals down with only minutes left to win.
