Vince Lia – 6

Quiet so far. Couple of poor passes with not enough weight on them.

Craig Goodwin – 7

Needs to control his crossing of the ball, couple of times they were too long. Better second half, finding more space, had a lovely shot and produced a solid save from Italiano. Cooly slotted the penalty home.

Ben Halloran – 7.5

Dropped very deep to pick up the ball. Great run, looped the ball over, hit the side post and Mileusnic slotted the ball in.

Fine effort on goal near half-time but it was good goalkeeping from Moss. Displaying good ball control, he worked endlessly for his teammates, put a good shift in.

Nikola Mileusnic – 7.5

Looked lively early on. Good crossing for Ilso and fantastic ball control. Again, in the right place at the right time, easy goal to toe-poke and put the Reds in front.

Followed on from his performance last week, working hard up and down the wings, another player who put an honest shift in. 

SUBS

Michael Marrone - N/A 

Ryan Kitto – 6.5

Looked lively after coming on but needs to drop back to support. Great run to cause the late tackle from Boogaard which won Adelaide the match

George Blackwood – 6

20 minutes for Blackwood was his first appearance since Round 2. Produced a tame effort late on but encouraging signs for the Reds. Finding his feet again.
