Although the visitors pulled off over two dozen shots on goal across both halves, the Roar was able to restrain Myrtleford.
The final whistle saw the scoreline even at nil-nil.
Roar coach Manny Artavilla said he was pleased by the draw.
“We set a target not to have any goals against us, and we achieved that,” he said.
As Myrtleford made multiple entries into its forward half, heroics from Roar keeper Judith Cakebread ensured no change to the scoreline.
“Judy [Cakebread] in goals was outstanding. She kept us in the game. She saved a heap of goals and saved a penalty,” Artavilla said.
With a more experienced body through its midfield, the young Roar side managed to hold possession where and when it mattered.
But with the game pushed back to take centre-stage for the Mother’s Day special, the unseasonably warm autumn day began to take its toll on both sides.
“Fitness probably kicked us a bit in the second half, with the heat,” Artavilla said.
“We can grind out a nil-all draw, and fight it out to the end. I think everyone played their part, which is good, but I think there is still a bit of improvement to be made.
“[Communication] is improving, and the girls are getting a bit more confident and trusting each other.”
The Roar division one women sit at seventh on the league ladder, three points behind Myrtleford.
