Missed chances are going to frustrate people. Palmer looked really good yesterday, until it came to the final pass or finish. Unfortunately for him, he won’t be starter until that improves. I hate to admit it, but @Grendel’s ‘nearly man’ label is not unfair.
As for Allen, he had a decent game, but his final ball was lacking too. His final ball to Palmer, ironically, was perfect. That was MR’s assessment too.
COH deserves the plaudits for a fantastic goal and Torp was very good defensively and on the ball - he just isn’t fully match fit to last 90m at this stage.
People have been saying Bidwell was poor so I don’t get that comment.
