CALMAC – 7.5/10 – Yasss! scrap it out, skipper. That early goal-saving tackle set the tone and his troops responded. A mission that started out as a task to compete became a nightmare, a strength-sapping undertaking to stay in a game with the odds stacked against you. But he rallied his mhen defiantly and with proper leadership; voice will be gone, I’d think, from calling the shots like a quarter-back. Got his headspace exactly right once we were down to ten and made sure his team followed his example.
THE TERMINATOR – 7/10 – A really good bit of jousting from young Arne. Whatever the arguments over his finesse or the fact we don’t see nearly enough of it, you can’t grumble about a player who’ll dig as he did when the chip pan catches fire. Willing to cover the yards, bite into their showboaters and stand strong as a shield in front of his defence. Fair play, kid.
HAKUNA HATATE – 3/10 – For heaven’s sake Reo. After a promising goalscoring start, he all but turns the shotgun on us with two yellows of entirely his own making. First came after he was right through on a high ball and trapped it ten yards backwards like a deranged puppy with a beachball. Second and off – the petulance he’s shown through the season catches up, boils, then blows up in his face. Baka!
