NEW coach Cherie O'Neill has backed the Bendigo Thunder to continue their bright early season form against the Eastern Devils on Sunday.
The Thunder head the VWFL Premier Division ladder with four wins from as many games and already hold a win over the Devils by 71 points in round three.
They backed up with a 29 point win against Deer Park last Saturday.
The Thunder regain their skipper Emma Grant for the clash after she represented Melbourne in last Sunday's women's AFL exhibition clash at the MCG.
O'Neill said with so many players in good form, it was getting harder each week to select a team.
"The talent out there is incredible," she said.
"We have had another good week on the track and now we're looking forward to putting together another good game.
"What we have been bringing to practice - if we can do all that we should be able to walk away with a win."
Emma Ross enters the contest in great form after kicking five goals in the win against Deer Park.
She has a team-high nine goals for the season and is proving a great complement to gun centre half forward Hayley Trevean.
Cass Blakeway, Tiahna Cochrane and Emily Findlay are also coming off strong games for the unbeaten Thunder.
