The Rhinos went 17-8-3. In the postseason, the Rhinos eliminated the Montreal Impact and met the Richmond Kickers in the conference finals. But the Rhinos were eliminated from the postseason by the Kickers, and for the first time since 1997, the Rhinos didn’t reach the A-League Championship and would end the season without a trophy of any kind as they had also been eliminated by the Kansas City Wizards in the U.S. Open Cup in an infamous game that saw a post-game brawl between the two teams.
