- 10' The 30-year-old Calum Waters has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

- 25' Poor challenge from Cameron MacPherson. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 30' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
