Andrew Hoole – 6 - Given creative responsibility in the absence of Danny De Silva, but his last pass was lacking. His corner delivery was fairly poor too, and he hardly saw the ball in the second half.

Tom Hiariej – 6 - Floated plenty of balls over Melbourne Victory defenders, including one to Asdrubal that nearly resulted in the Mariners having a half-time lead.

Wout Brama – 7 - Strong play from the Dutchman saw him put several opposition players on the turf early on. His physicality has been welcomed, but it was his delightful long ball to pick out Lachlan Wales that was the highlight.

Kwabena Appiah – 5 - Didn’t have the timing, which the heat contributed to. Despite that, he used his pace to his advantage, but the Victory defence was up to it and he was taken off after 70 minutes.

Connor Pain – 5.5 – Was given plenty of ball by the likes of Roux and Hoole, but he failed to make an impact.

Asdrubal – 6 - Limited chances but almost sprung a surprise lead for his side as he hit a driving shot low and to the left.

Blake Powell – 7 - Subbed on for Asdrubal in the 70th minute…. in the 71st he tapped into an open net on the back of a fantastic assist from fellow sub Wales.

Lachlan Wales – 8 - Subbed on for Kwabena Appiah in the 70th minute and his first contribution was a 40 metre run into open space, before laying off for Blake Powell to equalize for his side. Take a bow young man.

Josh Rose – N/A - Subbed on for Storm Roux in the 86th minute to help deal with the fatigue.
