Another case of so close yet so far for the Jets this evening. They've continually put together some promising performances this season, before crumbling late and handing points away. This was another case, and Newcastle were the better side for much of the first half tonight with more possession and territory, but again struggled to create many clear-cut chances. When the contest opened up in the second stanza they found the goal to push further ahead, but Robert Stanton could be accused of being far too defensive with the two-goal lead, dropping his side deep and letting the Sydney attack run at them. The Jets just couldn't hold on even with five at the back, failing to shut down Joe Lolley, and conceding two late goals. On a positive note, it's a much-needed point, and their first draw of the season, but they'll still feel they let victory slip.
