Hard to comment too much on the game as I didn't see it.
Stats suggest the following
Jets had 56% of the ball, good percentage for an away team that got pumped.
Both teams had 12 shots, although Perth had 8 on target compared to Jets 5.
Looks like Merrick played probably his most defensive team under his watch as Jets gaffer. I guess Perth would have really pushed on knowing that the Jets didn't have enough to sting them at the other end. Merrick is a good coach, although he is really going to be tested as a manager to see if he can turn this around.
Surprised Burns didn't start, I'm sure Hearts wouldn't be too happy that they loaned him out, only to see him constantly warm the bench. He isn't going to improve if he doesn't play.
