The Australian defender was released by Leicester at the end of last season and has been training with the Eagles in a bid to land a permanent deal.

Derby are also chasing Kisnorbo's signature, but he turned out for Palace as they ran out convincing 4-0 winners against their non-League opponents.

Midfielder Danny McGuire, who was recently released by QPR, played 70 minutes while Serbian trialist Goran Maric was among the goalscorers.

Johannes Ertl, Kieran Djilali and ex-Boreham Wood striker Simon Thomas were also on target for Palace.
