Alstead was immense today. My god how we've missed him this season. Ridyard has found his feet and is looking better every game, hopefully he'll get the chance to come on even more under Millward, he has a great kicking game and his try was top notch.

Just a pity its taken all season to get to this level.....

I too didnt hear the MOTM annouced, however I said Ridyard then Jock too, although it was hard to pick one yesterday no one had a bad game, even Stewart played well.

Although I agree Martyn was MOM his defence is not a patch on Wattos. Ian put some cruching tackles in.

Everyone played well for me ,thought Rydyard s try was exellent but Wotto still made a big difference today we have missed him last couple of matches,all in all a very good effort from the team.

But then you don't play half-backs on the basis of them being a tackling machine - think that was always just a bonus with Watson rather than par for the course.

Mick Nanyn won MOM.

Do you meant try that had me shouting 'out wide, get it out, PASS.........where the f**k are you goi.........beltin try lad!'





He had a blinder again and I'm made up for the lad. If he'd had the same confidence and scope to play his game early in the season then I dont think we'd be in this mess.

TBH - It has been very difficult for Ridyard to A) build confidence and B) find consistency as during the first 75% of this campaign everytime he played and we lost, he was always the scapegoat and dropped.



He has now enjoyed a relatively settled run in the side and improved considerably in each of the last 3 games. He has shown the confidence to take on the line more and posseses a nice step and a deceptive turn of pace to suggest he can be a shining light next year IMO. Especially given the stature of his potential HB partner and the quality of coaching that will now be afforded to him.

Agreed. I think he has a cracking year ahead of him.

Me too. Thats if we can keep him.

HE did it was just the coaches and some fans who didn't!
