Bunbury Forum Force v Mandurah City – Night Series Report

Division One Champions and newly-promoted Bunbury Forum Force got their 2012 Night Series campaign off to a perfect start with a 4-1 win over Mandurah City at Dalmatinac Park on Saturday evening.

Led by former ECU Joondalup defender Ollie McGee, the Force looked far from overwhelmed in their first outing as a Premier League side.

Just 12 months ago, it was keeper Ryan Montgomery’s heroics that salvaged a point against Mandurah in the opening round of the Night Series. But this time it was the Force calling the shots, with the likes of Ashley Young, Martin Ryan and Jon Brooks proving a handful for the Dolphins.

Force coach Nigel Wilcox was happy with his side’s first hit out of the season and is hoping to progress to the second stage with a bit of luck.

“We’ve been working hard for the last four or five weeks and it was a good performance,” he said.

“We wanted to get the game done and dusted in the opening 15 minutes of the second half and everything went to plan.”

Wilcox admitted preparations for this season had come together a lot better than this time last year.

“We were a bit under done last season and we had to play a lot of young players,” Wilcox said.

“But this year we wanted to put the best possible team that we could and progress past this first round.”

All eyes were on Force signing Steve Howson, and after a quiet first half the Englishman delivered with a quality finish to put the game out of Mandurah’s reach.

Wilcox is expected big things from the bustling centre forward during the upcoming All Flags State Premier League season.

“He’s played at a good level in England and he’s going to be a big asset for us,” he said.

It was Mandurah who were busy early in the match, making the most of the windy conditions.

Montgomery was called into action when City midfielder Jeff Bright found some space on the left hand side, only a fingertip save from the gloveman prevented any damage on the scoresheet.

Against the run of play, Ryan was brought down in the box by Mandurah keeper Phil Straker – leaving Young to take the spot kick.

The classy striker made no mistake, coolly slotting the ball past an outstretched Straker to give Bunbury a 1-0 advantage after the opening 15 minutes.

Leading 1-0 at the break, the Force went up a gear with three goals in 13 minutes to blow the game apart.

Brooks, Howson and Ryan all put their names on an ever growing Bunbury scoresheet to get Bunbury’s first ever Night Series win.

Darren Broxton scored a consellation goal for Mandurah after a goalmouth scramble on the hour mark, but it was too little too late as the yellow-and-blacks ran out easy victors.
