Wollongong Olympic played host to Port Kembla on a sunbathed PCYC pitch. After a goal each in the opening ten minutes, Olympic was down a man after Blake Coates saw red. Olympic produced a gritty performance scoring two goals on the counter attack late in the second half to earn the 3 points.
These are the thoughts of the two coaches, Rob Birkin of Olympic and Port's Noel Spencer.
Note - I made an error in the question regarding Port Kembla's injuries. It was Smith and Lavalle not Lowcock and Lavalle.
