Steven Ugarkovic - 5

Completed close to 90 per cent of his 54 passes and had a shot blocked but he wasn't as involved as he has been this season.

Nick Cowburn - 4

Was nowhere to be seen in the first half, hardly having any involvements. Subbed off midway through the second half.

Ronald Vargas - 5

Still doesn't look to be 100 per cent fit. The Venezuelan didn't really get the chance to create anything of note for his side. Was substituted after 74 minutes.

Dimitri Petratos - 5

Free kick forced a save out of Bouzanis. Didn't look his usual self out of on the wing but to be fair he has travelled a long way in the past fortnight.

Roy O'Donovan - 5

Suffered his first lost in 12 matches as a Newcastle Jet. The Irishman wasn't given too much service and only fired one shot at goal. Could only swing his boot at a pin point Vujica cross.

Riley McGree - 6

Started brightly but the flame soon died out. Won 13 duels out of 16 he contested and was probably Newcastle's best.

SUBS

Pato Rodriguez - 6

Replaced Cowburn just past the hour mark. Immediately put a spark in Newcastle's attack, came close to scoring soon after.

Joey Champness - N/A

Came on for Vargas with just over 15 minutes to go.
