A-Leagues Women Finals action. Brisbane Roar FC v Adelaide United

A sold out home crowd were treated to a dominant display by the Roar who had numerous scoring opportunities in the first half, but we're repelled by a tenatious City defence. Adelaide had a strong opportunity, but was cleared off the line.

In the second half, a double from Roar mid-fielder Kijah Stephenson, and a strike by Aimee Medwin saw the home team secure a 3-0 win and progress to the two leg semi versus Wellington Phoenix FC.

Happy New Year! Thanks to everyone who has followed my page and supported me from near or far!

A nice way to finish the year off was to have a few of my images recognised in the 'Australian Photographer of the Year' Awards!

1) 'Framed' taken at the School Sport Australia Tennis of the Qld Captain framed by her opponent's racquet at the precise moment the ball is hit. I actually thought 'wow'. (Finalist in the 'Single Shot' category)

2) 'Ready to Rumble'. The St Joseph's College Gregory Terrace First XV Forwards prepare to pack a scrum. I worked the edit to enhance the silhouette and highlight the red and black, the College's colours. (Highly Commended in the 'Creative' category)

Thanks to the Australian Photography magazine for organising the comp.

Brisbane Roar FC v Melbourne Victory action at the recent A-Leagues match at Suncorp Stadium. A Sam Klein goal in the third minute was the difference. Dean Bouzanis (Roar Goalie) was Man of the Match.

Spanish superstar Juan Mata, playing for Victory couldn't find the way to goal, and pressure is building on the Melbourne side's coaching team

Roar are now up to 2nd on the ladder with the Victory languishing in 12th.

Some images from the Hockey One Brisbane Blaze v Tassie Tigers. Evelyn Dalton was the hero for the Tigers, making a number of amazing stops from the star studded Blaze team. The game ended in a draw, with the Tigers picking up a bonus point from the shootout
