REPORT :
The start of the second half of the Central Coast Rugby Union season saw several upset results and some quite surprising scores. It is building into a very interesting competition and the race to the Finals is on for young and all.
 
The Match of the Day saw Ourimbah defeat Woy Woy by 78 points to 5 at Ourimbah Rugby Park. Ourimbah winning may have not been a surprise but the size of the victory was certainly a major surprise. The match was all Ourimbah from start to finish. Woy Woy simply had no answer to the onslaught. Ourimbah have definitely placed themselves as the premiership favourites at this stage of the season. Ourimbah controlled everything from the very start. They went to the halftime break leading by 22 points to nil and even at that stage it seemed that the match was all but over. The second half was an even far more one sided situation. Ourimbah continued their attack and were able to post a further 56 points. Best players for Ourimbah were halfback Matt King and lock Josefa Biu, while Owen Turner, Jarrod Grange and Toby Carver contributed greatly towards the victory. Woy Woy were simply outplayed. Their best players were Luke Ingold, Max Edwards and Fokolulu Taumalolo, who scored their only points. The win sees Ourimbah well and truly entrenched at the top of the competition table, while the loss sees Woy Woy drop out of the Top Four.
 
In an upset, Kariong proved too strong for Terrigal at The Haven Oval and ran out winners by 29 points to 5. Kariong were the far better team on the day and fully deserved the win. They controlled proceedings from the kick-off and went to the halftime break leading by 17 points to nil. It was an excellent first half of rugby. Kariong had definitely come to play rugby and they did. Best performers for them at that stage were hooker Justin Walker, who was everywhere, five-eight Mitch Clay, who had one of his best games this season, and halfback Scott Hanley. Terrigal tried to get back into the match in the second period but simply were unable to do so. They were only able to respond with a lone try to winger Brent Merritt while Kariong were able to secure the victory but posting a further 12 points. Best players for Terrigal were Merritt, halfback Sekope Maea and Alex Brewin. Terrigal stay in the Top Four despite the loss but the teams are certainly bunching up, and this group includes Kariong. The win by Kariong makes a semi-final position almost a reality this year.
 
Hornsby caused another minor upset when they defeated Warnervale at Mark Taylor Oval by 27 points to 22. This match went point for point for the entire 80 minutes and it was only in the final 15 minutes that Hornsby were able to make the break and establish a handy lead. Hornsby held a tight lead of 15 points to 12 at the halftime break. Warnervale actually took the lead early in the second half when they scored a try in the opening few minutes of that half. This lead of 17 points to 15 was quickly responded to by Hornsby. They scored their own try to take the lead 22 points to 17, and then followed this up soon after with another to lead 27 points to 17 with time running out. Warnervale scored a late try to create a spirited and exciting final few minutes. Hornsby was able to hang on for victory in what was a most emotional day. Best players for Hornsby were five-eighth Mitch Fullager, flanker Petty Latu, No.8 Lachlan Skulander and fullback Sam White. Warnervale were best served by flanker Cameron McNamara, Jake Marlow, Kevin McNamara and Daniel Ford
 
The Lakes leapt into the Top Four when they defeated Gosford by 45 points to 15 at Gosford Showground. The first half was a very even affair with nothing between the two teams. The Lakes went to the halftime break leading by only 12 points to 10 so both teams saw themselves with a great chance of securing the win. However the second half saw The Lakes take control and they won this half by 33 points to 5. It was a most convincing last 40 minutes. Fullback Macai Raulini continued his wonderful form for The Lakes and was able to cross for 3 great tries. He has scored many tries in recent weeks and has been one of the form players in the competition this year. His elusive running has proved almost unstoppable. He was well supported by centre Paul Satu and halfback Logan Hemopo. Gosford played quite well early on but just could not stop The Lakes’ attack in the second half. Best players for the home team were Sean Anlezark, Sam Underwood and Ben Eccles. The win sees The Lakes move into the Top Four in what is proving their best season in many years.
 
The Entrance secured a vital win in President’s Cup when they defeated Avoca Beach by 23 points to 19 at Heazlett Park. There was absolutely nothing in this match and both sides felt victory was very possible for the entire match.
 
The Women’s 7’s competition yesterday saw some exciting results and some very good rugby. Woy Woy continued their winning ways while Terrigal, Avoca Beach, Warnervale and Hornsby all secured a win each.

REPORT :
 
Round 9 saw some apparent upsets in a season which is developing into the most interesting in many seasons. The competition is so close and positions on the competition table are changing week by week.
 
In the Match of the Day, Woy Woy scored one of their best wins of the season when they defeated Premiers Terrigal by 26 points to 23 at The Haven Oval. There was absolutely nothing between these two sides for the entire match but it was Woy Woy who seemed to always have their nose in front. Woy Woy led by the closest of margins at the half way mark, by 21 points to 18 and that was a great indicator of the closeness of the match. Woy Woy got away to a great start and they were able to lead by 21 points to 8 well into the first half. Things were certainly looking very rosy for them. Terrigal did hit back with some very good rugby late in the first half and were able to cross for 2 quick tries to tighten the gap. Goal kicking was an issue for Terrigal as they only able to land one during the entire match. The second half continued in the same vein. It was a very even last 40 minutes with both sides only able to cross for the single try. Defence was the feature of the half with neither team able to gain very much in attack. Woy Woy were able to hang for the narrow win. It was a great boost for them, as the win sees them cling on to 4th spot on the ladder in what is developing into a very tight race to the Finals. We are at the midway point of the season and it will be most interesting to see if the current four leading teams will make up the Top Four this year. It is a question to be answered. Best players for Woy Woy were back Blake Arahill, who crossed for 2 tries, halfback Mitch Hyde and forward Tyrone Fleming. Best for the home side were winger Brent Merritt, who also crossed for 2 tries, lock Joe Taylor and Sekope Maea.
 
At Slade Park, The Lakes won a classic match by 46 points to 31 over Avoca Beach. The Lakes got off to a great start and were never behind on the scoreboard from that point on. It was a scrappy start as the wind affected play and the teams worked hard to work each other out but it was The Lakes who ran in the first try when their five-eight Fillimoni Seru made a break to score adjacent to the posts. The Lakes followed this up with two more tries and a conversion to be up 19-0 on the scoreboard after only 25 minutes. They knew however that Avoca Beach would fight to the end and they had to keep the scoreboard ticking over, which they did with a try out wide before Avoca Beach crossed for their first try of the game. A further penalty goal to the Sharks on half-time made the score 24-10 at the halftime break. This was definitely a good indication of the flow of the match as The Lakes looked dangerous every time they touched the ball and Avoca Beach just had no answer at this stage for their running rugby. Best for The Lakes was their fullback Macui Rauluni, whose elusive running style was proving impossible to stop. He continued this form in the second half with an early length of the field try running through the entire Sharks team to score under the posts. This try plus two more just after half-time saw The Lakes jump out to a huge lead and it was only then that Avoca Beach started to take some chances and put some points on the board but it was all too late. Other good players for The Lakes were forward Harry Pirini, lock James McCombie and halfback Logan Hemopo. Avoca Beach never stopped trying and they were best served by five-eight Dylan Cadogan, fullback Shaun Townsend and debutante Adam Chettle. The win sees The Lakes in 5th spot on the ladder with a very good chance of reaching the Top Four this year.
 
Ourimbah cemented their position at the top of the competition ladder with a strong win over Warnervale by 43 points to 26 at Ourimbah Rugby Park. Ourimbah got away to a wonderful start and they were able to post 31 unanswered points in the first half. The first 40 minutes was all Ourimbah and Warnervale had no answer. This period showed why Ourimbah have jumped to favouritism in the race to the Premiership this year, as they played some exceptional rugby. The second half was a far more even affair. Warnervale finally kicked into gear and were able to put the points on the board. In fact, the second half saw Warnervale outscore Ourimbah by 26 points to 12 and really made everyone sit up and take notice during this period. But the first half had secured the win for the home team. However, both teams showed they will be a threat this year. Ourimbah will be a potent force this year. Warnervale will definitely trouble teams and will push for a semi-final spot if the wins come their way. Best for Ourimbah were lock Matt Hopkins, halfback Matt King and flanker James Blanch, who crossed for 2 tries. Warnervale never gave up and their best players were Jack Gray, Brenton Acreman, and Daniel Ford, who also crossed for two personal tries.
 
Kariong kept their Finals chances alive with a convincing win over Gosford at Kariong Oval, winning by 36 points to 10. Kariong were always in control on the paddock and on the scoreboard, and they led by 19 points to 5 at the halftime break. The second half went much the same way with Kariong winning that half by 17 points to 5. So, it was a most consistent performance by Kariong and they certainly showed they will trouble all teams this year. They would be regretting those close losses they had earlier in the season. It was a tough day for Gosford and they were only able to cross for the 2 tries. Best players for Kariong were No.8 Blake Silvester, flanker Josh Bottero and hooker Justin Walker. Walker capped off a fine game with 2 tries. Gosford were best served by forwards Ben Eccles and Jackson Steinbeck, as well as back Josh McGlynn.

REPORT :
This round of Central Coast Rugby Union saw all four matches tightly contested. Played in windy and cold conditions, with some rain, all teams put on displays of some very good rugby.
 
The Match of the Day at Woongarrah Oval saw a hard fought fixture but Terrigal finished the stronger to run out winners by 31 points to 12 over Warnervale. The first half was a very even affair throughout. Warnervale started the ball rolling early on when they crossed for the opening try within the first 10 minute mark. It was just the start the home team wanted. However, Terrigal were very quick to hit back. Within a few minutes they had responded with their own try under the posts and the scores were very quickly locked up at 7 points each. Terrigal then crossed for their second try very soon after. The conversion of this try took them to a 14 points to 7 lead at the midway point of the first half. The reminder of the half was a real battle. Both teams had excellent periods of attack, but also periods of strong defence. Neither team was able to break through for any further points in the half. Terrigal were unable to get away to a bigger lead on the scoreboard while Warnervale could not get the try they required to square things up. The 14-7 scoreline at halftime was however a fair indication of the flow of the match to that stage. Terrigal centre Dylan Calabria was the visitor’s best player at this point, and he had crossed for both of Terrigal’s tries. Others to play well for Terrigal were halfback Sekope Maea, and inside centre Mark Koteczsky. The start of the second half saw both teams give it their all. It was Terrigal however who were able to get the tries. Terrigal worked their way to a 26 points to 7 lead midway through the second stanza and things were looking good for them. However, Warnervale were not to lie down. They were able to respond with their own through winger Mitch Riley after some excellent lead up play, and they also went close on a couple of other occasions. Warnervale had several very good performers. Prop Kevin McNamara had a good game. He made several strong charges. He was well supported by halfback Brenton Acreman, and outside backs Mitch Riley and Daniel Ford, who both crossed for a try apiece. The win sees Terrigal join Avoca Beach in equal second spot on the ladder, while the loss sees Warnervale joined by Woy Woy in equal fourth spot. It all makes for a very exciting second half of the competition.
 
Woy Woy hung on to defeat Kariong at Woy Woy Oval by 29 points to 24. It was a close scoring encounter throughout and although Woy Woy led for much of the match, the scores were always very close. Both teams scored 4 tries, so it was the goal kicking that was the difference on the day. Woy Woy had slightly better of the first half and went to the halftime break leading by 17 points to 12. There was nothing in the match whatsoever. Best players for Woy Woy were forwards Alifeleti Atiola, Matt Graham and Kane Burns. All three never stopped for the entire match. They were well supported by Blake Arahil, and Fokolulu Taumalolo, who alone crossed for three tries. Both teams scored the same number of points in the second half – twelve - but Kariong were simply unable to bridge that gap in the final 40 minutes. It was definitely not for the want of trying. They had several very good performers, but none were better than Robert Brown, who scored 2 tries, flanker Brent Bovis, and halfback Scott Hanley. Despite the loss, Kariong did gain 2 bonus points and that keeps them in distant touch of the Top four. They will need to do well for the rest of the season however. Woy Woy, with the victory, creep into equal fourth spot and keeps their hopes of a Finals berth alive.
 
Avoca Beach scored a close win over Gosford by 22 points to 19 at Gosford Showground. It was a pleasing performance by both teams, but it was the visitors who hung on for victory. Avoca Beach led by 14 points to 12 at the halftime break so it can be seen that the scores were so tight throughout the entire 80 minutes. Both teams had great chances of victory. Avoca Beach did have a player sent off very early in the first half so did have to tough it out one man short for much of the match. Best players for Avoca Beach were flanker Harrison Bowcock, while his fellow loose forward Liam Donsworth also had a good game and scored a try. Gosford tried everything in the second half to take the lead but just fell short. Best players for Gosford were Jackson Steinbeck, who crossed for 2 tries, veteran Adam Carlisle and Josh Reid. The win sees Avoca Beach maintain their second spot on the competition ladder while Gosford still trail the field. Despite the loss they will trouble all teams for the remainder of the year.
 
The Lakes scored a vital win over Hornsby at Slade Park and ran out winners by 34 points to 19. Played in cold and wet conditions, the rugby on display was excellent. The Lakes got away to a storming start, and within just over 10 minutes had jumped to a 17 points to nil lead. It really did seem ominous for Hornsby at that stage. However, both teams then scored a try each, and things on the paddock began to level out. The Lakes went to the halftime break leading by 22 points to 7 and that was to prove a comfortable lead, but one the home team knew they could not relax with. The second half was a very even affair, in fact the scores in the final 40 minutes was locked at 12 points apiece. But that first 10 minutes in the match was all the difference. Best players for The Lakes were lock Matt Lanzini, while fullback Macui Raulini and winger Dylan Galvin both scored a double during the match. Hornsby, after the slow start, did play well. Their best players were flanker Ollie Jenkins, who was a tower of strength all match, Toby Forde and Sam White. The win by The Lakes was an important one, it places them just out of the Top Four and they can still maintain thoughts of a Finals position this year.
 
 
The Entrance played well in President’s Cup, but were defeated by Ourimbah at Joseph Banks Oval on Friday night. They were defeated by 26 points to 15 in an enthralling game of rugby.
 
 
The Women’s 7’s saw some exciting matches. Woy Woy maintained their unbeaten run, while Terrigal, Warnervale and Hornsby recorded some sound wins. This is developing into a close competition and the standard of rugby has improved rapidly over the first half of the season.
 
The U/19’s mid-season interchange with Newcastle Hunter finished up yesterday with some top class rugby played between the zones. The teams which embraced this interchange will be the better for it as the local sides return to our competition after the Long Weekend.
