Isaías – 8.5

Outclassed Ninkovic and Mierzejewski as often as they outclassed him in the first half, then stepped it up another level in the second. In a 0-0, this contest was the best part.  

Mark Ochieng – 7.5  

Bursts of acceleration couldn’t be matched by sub-par positioning, however he put in one of the most impressive shifts of the lot.

Daniel Adlung - 8

Carried the ball up-field with confidence, held possession acutely and allowed Adelaide’s defence to breathe, but his crosses were inaccurate.

Jordan O'Doherty – 7.5     

Very nifty skills and nicked a couple of superb flick-ons going forward.

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos – 7

Timid finishing, lacking raw power, but he held the ball up well and ran down opponents vociferously.

Lachlan Brook - 7      

Played his heart out, but lacked cutting edge around the box.

Ben Warland - 7

Massive ask containing a surging Sydney after replacing Gulum, and while Elsey led the way, he followed in suit.

Kristin Konstandopoulos -  6.5

Slightly more influential than the other substitutions, but appeared a downgrade from Lachlan Brook.

Pacifique Niyongabire – N/A

Threw himself into a couple of challenges, but didn’t see much of the ball.
