HT: 3-1

The “Woods” Jekyll & Hyde season continues. The girls put in a heavy session at training, and the result was there to see on the park.  From the kick off , the girls meant business and threatened  the Yarra Ville goal early doors with Nicola P. and Chelsea S. both going close.  It wasn’t long before Ringwood had scored thru Chelsea Schaper; who went onto complete her hat-trick within 30 minutes. Yarra sneaked one  straight after the Woods third and then ‘keeper Courtney Jamonts pulled of a miraculous penalty after a hand ball incident.  In the second half the “Woods” continued to score with two goals from the pocket rocket Jacqui Morton, Chelsea added a fourth and Liv Bridgford capped the day with a brilliant run and goal from outside the 18 yard box, the “Woods” too missed a penalty in the dying moments and lost a 2nd near the end. Today was Ringwood’s day with a good win and great individual performances all over the ground.
