AJAX v La Trobe Uni - Home, Princes Park
It was cool and rainy conditions that greeted us for our must win game against LaTrobe at Princes Park.
We started well with a Nankin snap shot hitting the post and having most of the play. In a scrappy game we had more of the ball with J Caplan, Goldman, Cobbe and Marget busy in the middle with Gabriel and Burstin holding the defence together.
It wasn’t until the second quarter that we scored the first goal of the game with Micmacher taking a strong mark and converting the set shot in strong fashion. We had several chances and Klooger, Goldberg, Ossip and Brophy getting into the game the Jackettes were controlling the play. Nankin scored her first and we took a 2 goal lead into half time.
The second half began where the first left off and a great running goal from J Caplan followed by a strong Folwell mark and goal put the Jackettes 4 goals in front. A late La Trobe goal narrowed the margin to 3 goals at ¾ time.
The last quarter was a see-saw affair with LaTrobe scoring another the bridge the gap. Encouraging games from newcomers Sharbanee, Cain, Brophy and Keating was really pleasing.
Goals: Nankin, J Caplan, Micmacher, Folwell
Bests: Gabriel, Cobbe, Marget, Folwell, Goldman, J Caplan
