What a game - and the ref did all he could to keep Rovers in the game. There were so many bad calls from him.
We had so many players coming back and to hold on was a beautiful thing. As I predicted at the start of the thread- Rovers bubble popped.
Boy, there were some ugly Rovers fans on the TV. I just love seeing Carlos and Josh winding them up at the try LOL
My 2c worth:
1.Swift was a try - the ball came immediately backwards off his hand
2. Carlos - THAT WAS A TRY - absolute robbery
3. Burrito should have been allowed play on to score as well - again a dumb decision
That's 3 tries in the first half
4. The lift tackle on Lane was not given - UNREAL it wasn't given and led to more pressure.
5. Hall knocks on on his own 5 picking up the ball - that would change the game and it was a knock on
6. THIS IS IT - Rovers DG attempt in 1st half. Mental weakness all over it. Showed FC that rovers were scared. WHO takes a DG after 3-4 sets on the opponent's line???
7. Adam's reaction to our 3rd try on half time - amazing
8. Out goal line D was terrific and holding up over the line so many times and the DG block on the hooter!
9. Good to see us move the ball wide in 2nd half instead of down the middle early in tackle count
10. I taught Jamie that tackle at Skirlaugh and that changes the game again
11. Carlos again robbed at the paly the ball - ref plays on and rightly so - WHO tells the ref to stop as that was bollox decision
12. Where was Cam Scott inn the game? needs to offer much more
13. Ma'u was devastatingly brilliant - best game in FC shirt and what an engine
JAKE CONNOR - I need say no more
