[erlang-questions] Issues with ets:match_delete

[Code Wiget]

Here is a full run of it. I am working on the open source project cqerl:

(NODE)19> [Test] = ets:match_object(cqerl_clusters, {'_', '_', {Node, '$1'}}).
[{cluster_table,'$primary_cluster',
                {{{192,168,1,104},9042},
                 [{cassandra_nodes,[{<<"192.168.1.107">>,9042},
                                    {<<"192.168.1.104">>,9042}]},
                  {keyspace,devices},
                  {included_applications,[]},
                  {reconnect_interval,12}]}}]
(NODE)20> ets:delete_object(cqerl_clusters, Test).
** exception error: bad argument
     in function  ets:delete_object/2
        called as ets:delete_object(cqerl_clusters,
                                    {cluster_table,'$primary_cluster',
                                                   {{{192,168,1,104},9042},
                                                    [{cassandra_nodes,[{<<"192.168.1.107">>,9042},
                                                                       {<<"192.168.1.104">>,9042}]},
                                                     {keyspace,devices},
                                                     {included_applications,[]},
                                                     {reconnect_interval,12}]}})
(NODE)21> ets:delete_object(cqerl_clusters, [Test]).
** exception error: bad argument
     in function  ets:delete_object/2
        called as ets:delete_object(cqerl_clusters,
                                    [{cluster_table,'$primary_cluster',
                                                    {{{192,168,1,104},9042},
                                                     [{cassandra_nodes,[{<<"192.168.1.107">>,9042},
                                                                        {<<"192.168.1.104">>,9042}]},
                                                      {keyspace,devices},
                                                      {included_applications,[]},
                                                      {reconnect_interval,12}]}}])

Cant figure why the match is working but not the delete..
