Miss Piggies Demolish Vikings 52–12 in Round 4: Klemm and Grainger Lead Women’s 10s Masterclass

Miss Piggies Crush Tuggeranong Vikings 52 – 12 in Southern Monaro Cup Clash

The Jindabyne Miss Piggies Women’s 10s showcased their dominance in a comprehensive 52–12 victory over the Tuggeranong Vikings at Simon Poidevin Rugby Park 2, controlling the match from the opening whistle to the final whistle. Earlier in the Gala day, the Miss Piggies had a walkover win against Bateman Bay Boars Women’s when their first game was forfeited, setting a strong tone for the afternoon. Their well-rounded attack and disciplined defense ensured they never relinquished the upper hand.

Central to the Miss Piggies’ commanding display were Eden Klemm (#7 – TRC Trails) and Tilhaney Grainger (#2 – Hextra). Klemm contributed significantly with a try and converted six of the team’s eight tries, providing the steady hand that kept the scoreboard ticking. Grainger was equally impressive, crossing the try line three times herself, demonstrating her sharp running lines and consistency.

From the outset, Jindabyne imposed their game plan, stringing together phases that carved open the Vikings’ defense. Tries from Lily Godding (#10 – Macleod Trucking), Grainger, and Klemm gave the Miss Piggies an early lead that Tuggeranong struggled to match. The team’s cohesion was evident as multiple players, including bench player Andrea Marshall (#16 – Rob Kneller Youth Foundation), contributed to the try tally, reflecting the strength of the squad depth.

Defensively, the Miss Piggies were resolute, limiting the Vikings to just two tries and one conversion over the course of the match. This defensive solidity allowed Jindabyne to maintain their attacking rhythm without pressure, steadily extending their lead to a 40-point margin by full time.

This result reinforces the Miss Piggies as a formidable force in the 2026 Women’s 10s competition, setting a high benchmark as they progress through the season. The win also sees them continue to build momentum in the Southern Monaro Cup, as they now turn to Round 5 against the Bungendore Mudchicks after their last encounter ended in a hard-fought draw, setting up a decisive clash this time around.
