DEFENCE THE BEST ATTACK

Forest Hill has so far set Division 4 netball alight in 2015 with their dominance over the first three games.

The team are now recovering since their biggest win for the season to date, after beating The Basin Green by a 26 goals and keeping The Bears to a low scoring six goals.

It’s no secret that Forest Hill is the team to watch in the eastern suburbs for Division 4. The side have matched up against three-quality opponents this year and have brought home the win in each occasion.

Comfortably sitting first on the ladder after defeating Ringwood Black in a thrilling encounter, where they managed to take away the win by only three goals. After that Forest Hill were hit with yet another challenge, but still managing the 10 goal win against The Montrose Devils before their latest encounter with The Basin Green.

The wins have been fantastic, especially so early in the season; though what has been incredible are the few goals they have scored in all three matches. Forest Hill has raked up a low 77 goals so far which places them 5th for scoring.

Their tight defence has been spectacular and allowed the team to keep their opposition at bay. Though this week the defence will come up against their greatest challenge of this season so far, when they match up against The Basin Red who is sitting in second place also without a loss.

Forest Hill must note that the Basin Red are also sitting first in goals scored this year, Kylie Baumgarten is leading the way with 53and is third overall for the Division.

Although Forest Hill are not unequipped for goal scorers with Daniel Kool shining with fifty-one goals of her own. Even with her efforts the side has still only scored an oddly low 77 goals after such a fantastic start.

It is going to be the match of the round this week and a must watch for all netball fans.

Although now Forest Hill are going to need to find more avenues to goal if they are going to get over The Basin Red this week, as an all out defensive game may not be as effective against such a high scoring side. Though from what we have seen both side are capable of big wins and this match should be a thriller.
