Twenty minutes had elapsed on the clock when Rhiannon Moran opened the scoring with a penalty goal and then two minutes later, Lacey Latham weaved her way over for a try which Moran converted.
A mistake from the kick-off invited the home side back into the game which they took with an unconverted try to leave the Jillaroos 8-4 in front at half time.
The visitors paid the price for kicking out on the full form with a restart and within the set of six tags, Bendemeer managed to score a converted try.
A few minutes later, captain Robyn Broadbent opted to take a quick tap 10 metres out from the tryline and then strolled over untouched adjacent to the posts before Moran added the extras.
Eight minutes from full-time, Michelle Wayte put in a clever cross kick which Shae Partridge swooped on to finalise the scoring.
Three group and club points went to Latham while the remaining club points next to Kimberly Lisle 2 and Partridge 1 while Annabelle Green was voted Players’ Player following her enthusiastic all-round effort.
This Saturday, Walcha host Manilla here at the Park.
