[Radford 72]

One of those days where no one showed that touch of class or composure required. Plenty of graft but little in the way of genius from the outfield players. On that basis, I'm gonna vote for Alan Main, whose handling was faultless and who made a crucial good save at the end.

[Oldmuirton]

I think yesterday Morris finally showed glimpses of the class we know he has but haven't seen too much of so far. Very encouraging for the future.

[Mr Spoons]

Alan Main for me too. For the reasons given by Radford and also because of his quickness to come off his lines and deal with balls played over the defence.

[The ghost of Jim Morton]

Very few decent performances. I can,t agree with Main as he dropped a couple of balls, although he did make a few saves. The forwards were below par as well. I'm going to go for Rusty who I though had a good game and did little wrong.

[Broon]

Morris for me. He was excellent all game and managed the create some width in the absence of a midfield by using the full backs. Main, craig, samuel and caff all played well. As did irvine.

[SaintSam1884]

Morris can play a pass but to describe him as having been excellent yesterday is a bit excessive. I saw nothing out of the ordinary from him. I think only the defence played reasonably well yesterday but nobody stood out so much as to earn a man of the match award. I can see why people are voting for Alan Main after the save at the end and countless good handling from corners so if I'm going to vote, he's going to get it.

[saintj]

im going for irvine because he did a good job at the back and made some excellent attacking runs, 1 which took him to the edge of the penalty box after a couple of 1 2's

[Saline Saint]

I go with Rusty on a day when nobody stood out I think he was steady and dependable at the back.

[bleacher]

Voted for Main - he made sure we got a point at least.

[Macarius]

Have to go with Rutkiewicz personally. I only remember him making one poor play with the ball all day and he was generally his rock solid self. Samuel deserves a mention for the way he was able to turn defenders on occasion but he never really produced enough to warrant a real mention. Savo was a bit piss poor although I felt his goal was legit and oh my god Millar just can not shoot. He had 2, possibly 3 long range shot opportunities where the ball just fizzled harmlessly along the ground for a corner.

[duncan08]

stuck between main and sammy - main made some crucial saves at the end, but i went for samuel as i thought he won more than his share of balls, even when the defender seemed to have it under control. he almost always got past his man, and when he did the guy had no choice but to bring him down. in my opinion craig had a bit of an off day, as he wasted the free-kick sammy won from a promising position, and many crosses were over hit, having said that many were also under-hit

[sjfc_camo]

got to be gary irvine
his last two performances have impressed me ater starting off poorly

[Mr_Plow]

Gary Irvine for me, did well defensively and in attack.

[Rodgers]

jody

[monkfish]

Caff, looked composed again, and played a few good passes out of defence.

[Mike180279]

Jody - head and shoulders above the rest made a couple of errors though but showed he qualities that we will expect to see in the 2nd half of the season.

Samuel deserves a mention though, made a lot of good runs we will see a lot from hime before the season is out.

[+Super Trooper+]

went for holmes as he ran himself into the ground as always and won everything in the air. Jody was also very good though.

[john1962]

Jody for me. Wouldn't claim excellence but I think his class showed in the second half. it was him that kept us going forward

[Cagey]

Difficult one this week. May have given it to Caff as & think he strengthens the defence but we did niot do enough defending to justify it. Miller had a steady game but his shooting is woeful.

Gave it to Main. He dropped a couple ealy on with the ref saving his blushes but his svae at the feet of Dobbie saved us from defeat.

[Broon]

He didn't win a header all day. In fact, he's struggled the last two games in the air.

[Mike180279]

He didn't win a header all day. In fact, he's struggled the last two games in the air.He seems to be getting fouled a lot - well, when I say fouled the ref hasnt been giving them. I think that teams have got wise to our play and are shutting holmes out the game more. Three draws in a row, must change the front two for next week. Holmer for me should be the guy to make way.

[CynicalSaintee]

Alan Main. If it wasn't for him, we'd probably have lost the match. THough special mention must go to Samuel, who was a thorn in their side most of the game.

Fouls?? Most of them were illegal rugby tackles which I would have yellow carded in a rugby match!! Referee did nothing to protect the strikers (Saints ones anyway) on Saturday.

Don't get me started................. :evil:
