Last Time They Met: The GIANTS and the Magpies last met in round five at Ken Rosewall Arena. It was the GIANTS who secured their 14th win over the Magpies, courtesy of an 11-goal lead they created by half-time. Jamie-Lee Price controlled the game from her post in the middle and was well supported by Amy Parmenter and Jo Harten.
What it Means for the GIANTS: The GIANTS come off a close match with the top of the table Thunderbirds in round eight. A sentiment of frustration is felt among the GIANTS camp this season, as they find themselves in winnable matches but have struggled to finish off and take the points. A club that pride themselves on success since their inception, they will be looking to add another win to the ladder this weekend.
Where’s the Opposition At: The Magpies find themselves on the same points as the GIANTS but with a lesser percentage to sit eighth on the ladder. They come off a six-point loss to the Firebirds in round eight, which saw the two teams shift positions on the ladder.
The Name: Lauren Moore - the 25-year-old is the GIANTS' most in form defender of late. Having started in goal keeper the past two weeks, Moore has picked up 9 gains in the last two matches.
The Number: 669 - it's been 669 days since the Magpies hosted the GIANTS at their home venue, at John Cain Arena.
