FILAN: Not as dominant in his penalty area as usual, against the big men of Southampton...6

McATEER: Occasionally leaves space, because of driving forward, but was among Rovers' most impressive players again...8

HENCHOZWARD: A great attitude, a fine goal despite criticism of the defending and if it is down to people like him Rovers will stay up. David Jones said it all when he commented: "We just couldn't deal with Ward in the first half, he gave us all sorts of problems"...8

GALLACHER: Welcome back! Bright, inventive, good movement and worked tremendously hard for the team cause before, understandably, tiring...8

SUBS

BROOMES: Difficult to step in at half time, especially against a revamped Saints attack, with Beattie so strong in the air...6

DAVIES: Sadly ineffective, he contributed little

DAILLY: Late re-inforcements as the siege reached its height
