It's been a solid start to the 2019 women's 10s season for the Dianas, who have already picked up two wins from two outings.
In round one they were able to defeat old rivals in the Griffith Blacks, while in round two they scored a 44-17 victory over Wagga Ag College.
With plenty of new, fresh and experienced talent in the side this year and a new coach at the helm, the Dianas are looking good early on in the competition.

The Dianas aren't alone in their two consecutive wins to start the year, with the CSU Reddies and Tumut Bullettes also winning their first two opening rounds.
This weekend they will take on the Albury Steamers, a side who have yet to win a game, but will still pose a challenge to the Dianas if they go into the game more relaxed than usual.
After having to play in the sevens format two weeks ago due to Ag College not having enough players to field a 10s side, the Dianas will be hoping to find consistency with the larger team format on Saturday.
Another win will boost their confidence as they aim to build on their skills and combinations ahead of clashes with some of the top placed teams.
The Dianas match will kick off at 1.10pm on Saturday at Leeton's No. 1 Oval.
