How the Rovers stars rated
WILL Dagger: The stand-in fullback was exposed most of the afternoon, and also found it difficult to link with his team’s spine in attack. 4
Ethan Ryan: Didn’t see much of the ball, Crooks and Ryan were guilty of poor choices all afternoon. 4
Ben Crooks: The centre endured a horrid afternoon, left a big gap for the first try and bombed a few in attack. 4
Shaun Kennydowall: The skipper was guilty of making some silly errors but scored a late try. 4
Ryan Hall: Was constantly under threat from the high bomb of Fages, his usual dependable self. 5
Rowan Milnes: Was quiet throughout and never looked like a threat. 4
Jordan Abdull: The half-back has struggled in 2022 and Saturday was no different.
His lack of organisation of the team is a real worry at the moment. 4
George King: Out-enthused by his opposite number Hill. 4
Matt Parcell: Had no platform to build around, couldn’t get Rovers going. 4
Matty Storton: Like most Rovers players, Storton lost his personal battle and was poor. 4
Kane Linnett: The second-rower was a gamble that backfired, he lasted 15 minutes. 3
Dean Hadley: Had plenty of ball but nothing went in his favour. 4
Elliot Minchella: The vice-captain has gone off the ball in the past few weeks. He and his pack lacked intent throughout. 4
Jez Litten: Replaced Linnett early and was asked to do too much by his half-backs, injected some pace but couldn’t create anything to change the game. 5
Korbin Sims: The Fijian has had his critics over the past two years, but ran with intent and showed some fight that many of his teammates lacked. 5
Greg Richards: Very few carries and metres. 4
Jimmy Keinhorst: Came on when the game was over, nothing Jimmy could do. 4
