West Hobart hold Whirlwind to 1-all draw

West Hobart v Waimea Whirlwinds: 1-1
Goalies were: Josie and Alice Fiddyment
Goal scorer: Anna Jamison


West Hobart started sleepily and much of the play in the first 15 minutes was dominated by Waimea. The West Hobart defence line came under immediate attack but strong work by Jacinta, Alice C and Alice F held off the worst of the sustained pressure from the Waimea.

West Hobart was unlucky to concede a goal early in this half, but AJ scored a nifty goal later to equalise the scores at 1-1.

The second quarter saw a much more coordinated effort from the entire West Hobart team, particularly the forward line which began to pass well to each other. Nadia did a great job repeatedly reaching loose balls in front of the opposition and moving them forward toward goal, skilfully evading attempts by Waimea to block her.

West Hobart had many shots at goal but weren't able to clinch another one, the scores at the end remaining the same.

Next week: West Hobart vs Princes Street Supernova
Venue is Olinda Grove (Mount Nelson) at 10am
