Jack Clisby – 6.5

Constantly looked to swing crosses into the area, although they were of poor quality and made it easy for the likes of Taylor and Durante to clear. Also came close with a couple of decent free-kicks.

Jordan Murray – 6.5

Was right in the thick of the action from the start, and probably should have scored inside the first five minutes but fired over from a tight angle. Didn’t do too badly on his first ever A-League start.

Michael McGlinchey – 6

Struggled to have any sort of attacking influence on the match, as he constantly had to drop very deep to get on the ball.

Aiden O’Neill – 6

Lots of running and endeavour, but much like previous weeks just a real lack of quality which is not what you expect from someone on loan from a Premier League side.

Connor Pain – 7

Just like O’Neill, lots of invention and effort, but a lack of quality. He can be key to the Mariners turning things around but he needs others to be on the same wavelength.

Matt Simon – 6

Was able to use his aerial prowess really well in the early stages, winning many duels and knock downs to the likes of Pain and Murray. Continues to look like a one-trick pony as he needs to add more to his game than simply winning aerial duels and winding up defenders.

SUBS:

Andrew Hoole – 5.5

Struggled to have any sort of impact off the bench.

Josh Macdonald – 6

Came on to make his first appearance as a Mariner.

Mario Shabow – 6

Was very lively when coming on, could have scored from just outside the area after some neat build-up play but Kurto denied him well.
