Central Coast Mariners' hat-trick hero Jason Cummings declined to be drawn on his future plans after his goals delivered the club's first A-League championship in a decade, with success also likely to lead to the break-up of Nick Montgomery's team.
The Australia international revealed in the build-up to the 6-1 thrashing of A-League premiers Melbourne City that Saturday's final at Parramatta Stadium would be his "last dance" with the Mariners, 18 months after joining the club.
"I need to enjoy the moment now, go back with the boys and enjoy it with my family and the fans. And then we'll see what happens." Mariners operate on one of the A-League's smallest budgets and Montgomery acknowledged that Cummings was unlikely to be the only departure."I've no doubt we're going to get offers and the quality of players on show tonight, nobody can doubt the value of that squad. But that wasn't there at the beginning of the season.
The possible departures include Montgomery, who has seen his stock rise after overcoming significant financial limitations to end the Mariners' trophy drought.
