Roy knows AK can't score with his feet, and was to far out to head it in.

Ridenton did well... kept Castro pretty quiet, just a couple lazy turns into trouble in bad spots - otherwise very solid.

So where does Paracki slot into next week?

Average. Lucky 3 points. Was never a penalty but. Worst penalty ever taken imo. Average.

Bench. We need to start the same team that started the second half, get some consistency.

Lucky? Deserved that IMHO, had far more chances and as you say was never a penalty.

Central Coast is a very winnable game next week - I still think we lack a little through the middle, but much improved.

I think we were OK in the middle, and defensively for once. It looks to me like we lack combinations on the outside, fullbacks and wide players not really on the same wave length and sending it out to either side normally meant losing the ball. 

Also Fox, clearly our best defender? He should have been starting way back when Merrick was coach and Siggy was retiring.

Anybody says ever again "Ridenton is not A-League material" needs to be banned by the mods. He was massive tonight and easily our best player throughout the full 90 minutes. Promising young player that is coming into his own.

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

Lucky as in neither team deserved to win with that standard of football. Decent sides with that many chances would of scored more goals surely. I'd love to see the stats on how many times the ball was given away by both teams with poor or ill conceived passes. Average.

Agreed. It's amazing what consistent minutes can do to a youngters game!

Also on Burns, I don't mind that he was taking probably too many touches and then ended up losing it. He wasn't losing the ball in a dangerous positions, and given that he had two years of practically no football the more he gets involved the better he'll get.

VAR approved. Quality all round

Tegal needs props for his thread title anti-jinx. Who'd have thought that having all your best players available might mean a win?

Fudge yes!!!! Honestly I was getting ready to type 'probably the more deserving team won in the most undeserving way possible' when Perth got that penalty. Great 3 points!  Off the bottom!!! Singh put out a huge shift, Doyle and Burns looked pretty tired in that second half. 

Trying my best not to let naive hope take over for the rest of the season though
