Chris Harold – 6 - looked to get involved down the right especially after space opened up with Malik’s dismissal. Withdrawn on 68mins when Perth’s numerical advantage seemed to have disappeared.

Andy Keogh – 6 - sent a warning shot over the bar early on with a lovely half volley before teeing up Mitch Nichols for his team’s first. Injured himself and was subbed on the half hour

Mitch Nichols – 8 - Had acres of space in front of him when Keogh laid it off for him. He took the invitation with a furious strike that copped a deflection on the way through but always goal bound. Was his side’s main threat after Keogh’s injury and when given the ball was his usual opportunistic self. Ran himself ragged and was substituted late.

Substitutes

Joseph Knowles – 6.5 - Got a chance on the half hour after Keogh’s injury. Given the task of closing down and being a nuisance for most of the night.

Mitch Mallia – 7 - Given about 25 minutes by Kenny Lowe to try and get Perth going again after a lull. A great pick up from Kenny Lowe and he burst away late in the game to seal the three points for the boys from the West for his second A-league goal and first for his newest employers.

Jake Brimmer – N/A - Late substitute and not enough time to rate fairly.
