The Chinese specialist

 

Just when you thought we'd lost him to a lucrative fashion modelling career, Jai La Ionica (in tribute to the worst April Fools joke of all time) reminded us all what he does best: score against the Chinese.

You'd think his career might have really taken off if he'd just been able to score against Australians, but Jai's clearly hedging his bets on a Chinese Super League move, y'know, if his deals with Calvin Klein and a fine chicken purveyor fall through.

Terrace Antonis

It's fantastic to see that when given the responsibility to truly strut his stuff among a vastly inexperienced forward line, Terry Antonis' quality shone through. 

His keen distribution, explosiveness in possession and feisty shooting range left him a cut above his fellow Victory midfielders, but to be fair he wasn't the only Big V starlet to shine on the night. 

Even the likes of Storm Roux and Corey Brown, basically anyone who'd been playing regularly this season, broadly rose to the occasion.
