Brazilian Bobo was the star of the show, scoring his second hat-trick in a row.

It was the Sky Blues' 23rd match without defeat at the venue. Graham Arnold's men started slowly but Brandon O'Neill's goal settled the ship and opened the floodgates.

SYDNEY FC

Andrew Redmayne (GK) - 7

Wasn't troubled at all despite Perth's early pressure.

Luke Wilkshire - 8

Despite having turned 36 in October, the former Socceroo hasn't shown any signs of slowing down this season. Was denied a goal late on before coming off in the 88th minute.

Jordy Buijs - 8

Had to be on his toes early but once the team settled it was another comfortable performance by the Dutchman.

Alex Wilkinson - 8

Same can be said about Wilkinson, rock solid when called upon, which wasn't often.

Michael Zullo - 8

Was always keen to get forward and delivered a beautiful ball to assist Sydney's third.
