Looking ahead to the match, half-back Abby Price, said: “Going into our second round of the season, I am really looking forward to getting back on the pitch.

“We have noticed where we can improve in certain areas put into play what we picked up on through our video review on Tuesday. Tweak our negatives and turn them into positives.

“I can not wait for Sunday, to show more of what us as a team are becoming and what we can do.”
