2. Will Norris - 8
Totally comfortable with the ball and sticking to a philosophy of playing out from the back doggedly. Matched with some solid stops to crown a strong afternoon’s work. Photo: Jason Brown
3. Joe Rafferty - 9 MOTM
The assist king! One from a corner and open play were the perfect flourishes to an afternoon where the right-back did the business at both ends of the pitch. Photo: Jason Brown
4. Regan Poole - 7
A competent and confident showing at the heart of defence - epitomised by his outstanding late, late challenge to deny Moncur a leveller before the break. Photo: Jason Brown
