Woy Woy causes upset

Woy Woy Rugby Union Club caused an upset when they defeated Terrigal in round three of competition at Woy Woy Oval on April 24.

Central Coast Rugby Union president Mr Larry Thomson said there was "nothing in the game" that saw Woy Woy win 22 points to 20.

"Woy Woy led by nine points to six at the half time break and the game could have gone either way," Mr Thomson said.

"Terrigal did score two tries to one but good goal kicking by Woy Woy's Jordan Nikora gained the home side the victory.

"Best players for Woy Woy were hooker Danny May, halfback Mitch Hyde and winger Matt Bishop.

"Woy Woy secured the last minute victory with a try to prop Steve Hopley in the final minutes of the game.

"Terrigal were always in with a real chance.

"Best for Terrigal were lock Alex Brewin and flanker Ryan Metcalfe.

"The win certainly does open up the competition this year and makes for one of the more interesting starts to the year for quite a few years."
