[5] Gully qualified for the national stage of the 2016 FFA Cup, drawing A-League side Central Coast Mariners in the Round of 32 and became at the time only the second member federation club to beat an A-League club when Liam Boland's 92nd minute long-range goal saw the Cavaliers win the tie 2–1 in front of 900 people at Green Gully Reserve.
Despite the hosts taking a 1–0 lead early on at Knights Stadium, a Nicholas Krousoratis goal wedged between a Liam Boland brace saw the visitors progress to the quarter-finals of the competition in front of 2,472 people.
In 2018, Papas retook the senior coaching job, but again departed, joining Schattorie at NorthEast United FC in the Indian Super League.
