22.01.2022 WITH a thrilled Inner West Magpies Women team scoring a Grand Final berth, Henson Park was bathed in sunshine for the much-anticipated Women’s Premier Division Preliminary Final match against the East Coast Eagles on Saturday. The Inner West Magpies women were ready to celebrate their fearless Captain Melissa Freckelton’s 150th game with a good showing. And that they did. Elyse Glynn had another superb game in the ruck and gave Freckelton, Belinda Harrison and Erin Todd firs...t use. Evenly poised at half time, the second half got underway with strict instructions to the Magpies to maintain structure and sustain intensity. The team soon piled on five unanswered goals to blow the game wide open. The youth girls led by Ella Heads and Maddie Convery, were instrumental, highlighting that the future of the Magpies is bright. They were supported by Lael Kassem, Rebecca Privitelli, Linda Lodge and Gillian Behan who all showed why they are so well respected. The highlight of the third quarter was Michaela Ekman kicking a 45m monster goal which got the Magpies soaring. Special mention must also go to Meredith Montgomerie. The last quarter saw the Magpies run away with a victory which puts them next in the big dance against the best side all season Manly. Inner West Magpies 6.5.41 defeated East Coast Eagles 4.3.27. It is a remarkable effort noting where the team has been for the last five years and the rebuild that occurred in the off-season, with the team getting better and better every game. Next Saturday’s 1.45 pm Grand Final game at Kanebridge Oval has limited tickets but will be live-streamed at the Magpie Sports Club, 46 Hampton Street, Croydon Park.

03.01.2022 BUCKLE up your helmets and put on your joggers - Ewen Park’s new $3.8 million pedestrian and cycle bridge is open and ready to enjoy. City of Canterbury Bankstown Mayor Khal Asfour said the new bridge would improve the way pedestrians and cyclists shared the precinct and connected the Cooks River Cycleway and surrounding areas. Not only will cyclists no longer need to dismount while crossing the Cooks River, the new wider and angled bridge, now provides a more interesting journey over the river, he said. This project took only 12 short weeks to complete with the main structure of the bridge built prior to being assembled on site. The work included a new all-access kayak launch pad, a new path made of crushed sandstone between Lang Road and Younger Avenue in Earlwood and landscaping along the banks of the river.
