After five defeats from as many matches, Collingwood breaks through at last to triumph over Gold Coast by three points.
Collingwood has broken through for its first win of the AFLW season after defeating Gold Coast by three points.
It is also their first win under first-year coach Sam Wright since the club parted ways with Steve Symonds in November. The Magpies' win over the Suns came at a cost, with Mikala Cann — returning from a one-match suspension — subbed out with a shoulder injury. Brittany Bonnici, back from a calf strain, was inspiring for Collingwood and shook off a shoulder complaint to finish with 27 disposals and eight clearances.Suns star Charlie Rowbottom led the game with 30 disposals, and Lucy Single stood out with nine clearances, but the duo could not lift their team over the line.
