The Newcastle Jets have gone down to F3 rivals the Central Coast Mariners, in their first pre-season clash at Tamworth this afternoon.
Just minutes into the match, the Jets were unable to capitalise on an early chance from Wayne Brown – Hooles’ second effort also falling short.
The Jets again hit the wood work in the 29th minute…
Newcastle finally broke through a short time later, with this strike from Devante Clut.
But their lead was short lived, with Blake Powell prodding one home from close range.
Into the second half, the Mariners carried their momentum – Connor Pain striking from just outside the 18-yard-box.
Two-one the final score.
