Stockdale 6 That mistake could have been costly!
Liam 6.5 Steady
Bruno 6.5 Ok
Uwe 7 Comfortable picked up from how he was playing before losing his place in the side when initially injured.
Dunk 7 Strong display
Stephens 6.5 Ok
Kayal 6.5 getting back to previous league form
Baldock 6.5 some good runs off the ball should have scored though.
Knocky 6 quiet, although scored
Skalak 6
Hemed 6 quiet game

March 7 skillfully and good finish
Towell 6 should have scored
Murray 6

Back to winning ways, always could have been maybe a different game if Rotherham had scored one of their sitters.

Stockdale - 6 two good saves but almost gifted them one.
Rosenior - 5 rusty
Uwe - 7 looked very comfortable, made some important tackles
Dunk 7
Bruno 6
Skalak - 5
Knockaert - 5 apart from the goal he didn't look great
Stephens - 6
Kayal - 6 rusty but as good as Stephens
Hemed - 5
Baldock - 6 our most dangerous looking attacker and his run and blocked shot led to the opener. Should have squared an easy ball to Skalak for tap in but shot instead from a tight angle.

March - 8 had advantage of running at tired defenders and a team that weren't defending a 0-0, but still impressive
Ritchie Towell Baby - 7 nice cameo, probably should've scored.
Murray - 5

Mention for their number 15, Ajayi: head and shoulders (literally and metaphorically) above everyone else in the Rotherham team.

Pretty much agree with that scorecard .. perhaps up Stephens and Rosenior 1 mark. Take one off Towell, clean through,should have scored, put it well wide.

Good call on Ajayi their deserved MoM.

Good subs and probably a half-time rollicking from CH

Been out tonight so missed the news.

Seriously why would we need a rollicking at half time.

What is going on?

Ahem yes Rollocking. Because we were average and sloppy first half... against a poor team. Could have conceded a couple of goals but to be fair could have scored as well.

Stockers 6. didn't think he had too much to do. couple of routine saves,
Bruno 9 always available on the overlap very reliable
Rosenior 6 nothing special but getting back upto speed
Uwe 7 good passing and solid defending
Dunk 7 Solid display
Knocky 7 could do better but got on the scoresheet
Stephens 7 ok
Kayal 7 nice to see him get a full game
Skalak 8 was my man of the match until last 20 mins when started wasting the ball with ambitous shots when a pass would've been better
Hemed 7 a bit quiet but ok
Baldock 9 great energy and runs. really should've squared to Skalak but instead shot over.

edited after thinking the lack of Rotherham's threat going forward. marked down Dunk and Uwe a bit

march 8 left the full back for dead a few times
murray 6 ok
towel 6 should've scored

Didn't really think any defenders apart from Stockdale were severely tested, particularly in the second half. Stephens was rather anonymous for most of the game. March was electric when he came on. Knocky had frustrating game. Hemed was average, ditto Murray later. Bruno was my MoM for his midfield and attacking play.

Stockers 7 (saves meant an 8 but he had that one kicking moment again)
Bruno 8 (solid and looked good going forward
Liam 7 (still finding his feet but solid enough)
Uwe 8 (decent but second fiddle to a dominant Dunk)
Dunk 10 (my man of the match, faultless so a 10)
Knocky 7 (average away performance, wasteful and frustrating but did take the crucial first goal)
Stephens 8 (on the ball a lot, but a bit wasteful with it at times)
Kayal 7 (getting closer to his old self but not trusted yet)
Skalak 8 (put in a good shift and provided more solid cover than Murphy/March would have done)
Hemed 7 (worked hard without much joy)
Baldock 8 (worked hard and pace caused problems)

I listened to the game from half an hour in on Seagulls player...

Stockdale - 7 Sounded like he had an excellent game barring one mistake
Rosenior - 6 Steady and Composed
Uwe - 8 A rock, sounded like nothing was getting past him
Dunk 7 As we expect from Dunk, solid and steady
Bruno 7 Good attacking outlet and solid defensively
Skalak - 6 Not at his best but always a threat
Knockaert - 7 Hugely important goal, could be season defining
Stephens - 7 Broke up play well and good distribution, back near his best
Kayal - 7 One great mazy run and kept things ticking over before tiring
Hemed - 7 Battled well but never sounded like he got close to scoring
Baldock - 8 Best attascking outlet, had plenty of the ball and ran Rotherham defence ragged

March - 8 Great cameo,
Towell - 7 Could have got a goal but came on and did a good job
Murray - 6 Not at his best at the moment but held ball up well

JC and Warren were very impressed. He's definitely gone down in Warren's little book.

Amazingly, he's there on loan from Cardiff, who are playing Greg Halford!

Ermmm perhaps I'm being a tad pedantic here, but how on earth can you give players ratings when you haven't actually seen the game live, merely listened to it on seagulls player?

Best Central defender I have seen all year from an opposing side, big strong, quick, good on ball and in the air, cant believe he cant get in Cardiff's team, maybe as he cant lump it forward or take a long thrown in? could be the reason.
