What a monster! Think he won every header and his composure on the ball is very impressive. I can't help but wonder what the hell happened in the Yeovil game though
He was brilliant, he's the best tackler in the team, been good all seasonKelly too, went to the Notts away league game and thought he was a poor player, ever since I’ve come to like him
Steady on. I wouldn't go that far.Hyam is a real find taken a while to make his mark but I would think he’s first central defender on the team sheet now.
Yep, hats off to them both.A mention about Stokes, thought he was finished, last 2 games showed so much strength and Doyle just unbelievable!!!
There was a point in the first half where kelly chased down a Notts player , tackled him on the wing then played a great through ball to McNulty I think it was .He was brilliant, he's the best tackler in the team, been good all season

I would say if we ranked them all at the moment, it would be ...
1. Davies
2. Willis
3. Hyam
4. McDonald
Got to agree - Willis first for me, with one of the others (assuming he is still with us). I'm pleased we have choices / backup, remember concrete rod was outstanding earlier in the season.Think I'd rate Willis No.1 for his athleticism and class, Davies is a unit and more suited to L2 perhaps but we saw just what Willis adds at his best last night.
Hyam was already pretty good from the start of the season, but has really progressed. I think we can put Yeovil down to the entire team having a stinker, plus of course the fact that youngsters who are learning do have the odd bad game.
Last night, he was absolutely brilliant. He's not quite Alan Hansen yet, but yes he does read the game extremely well for an inexperienced defender and has great anticipation that perhaps gives him an extra yard in his head to make up for a slight lack of pace. Much like Ponticelli's goalscoring instinct, that is very hard to coach. And his distribution was very good, not least with the ball to Bayliss for his goal. What a cracking prospect he is! Great signing by Robins.
