The Newcastle Jets were dealt another dagger blow as they lost their third match in a row going down 2-0 to Perth Glory at McDonald Jones Stadium. Perth now overtake the Western Sydney Wanderers in seventh place heading into the final round of A-League football.
Perth Glory
Liam Reddy - 6.5
Great sweeper keeping early on as the Jets didn’t threaten in Perth’s defensive third, keeping Riley Mcgree from a two-on-one situation. Some brilliant last minute saves as Champness' diving header slammed into his midrift.
Scott Neville - 6.5
A solid performance from the former Newcastle Jet. A few forays forward despite Joel Chianese stealing the show in attack, Neville had some glimmers in the final third in the second half.
Alex Grant - 7
Some brilliant defending including great jockeying of Roy O’Donovan preventing him creating an angle for a dangerous shot on goal in the first half. Came into his own next to Shane Lowry and marshalled the defence well.
Shane Lowry - 6
Had a confident first half dealing with the passes of Petratos and Vargas as he played as a stopper, blocking passing lanes at the last moment and wining possession for Perth.
Joseph Mills - 5.5
Not spectacular but an average performance. Like his full-back counterpart, they played a great role getting forward but in terms of creating chances and putting promising balls into the box he wasn’t at his best.
