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

Kelly too, went to the Notts away league game and thought he was a poor player, ever since I’ve come to like him

Couldn't agree more. Biamou and McNulty rightfully took a lot of the headlines but Hyam and Kelly were both excellent tonight.

He reminds me of Alan Hansen. He's so calm on the ball and passes it out of defence really well too.

Very impressive. If Rod can recapture his form we have 4 excellent centrebacks.

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.

Steady on. I wouldn't go that far.

I would say if we ranked them all at the moment, it would be ...

1. Davies
2. Willis
3. Hyam
4. McDonald

Considering he came in as ‘one for the future’, bar the Yeovil debacle he has taken every opportunity given to him with both hands!
For someone with such a slight figure, he makes an excellent CB!

Dom Hyam deserves a big mention for 2 quality performances in the two play off games. Looked mature, physical and dominating in the air.

Top marks young man.

Yep, hats off to them both.

Doyle has impressed me so much this season and the past few games Stokes has been almost back to his old self.

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 .

Epitomises what city were all about last night.

Their RB must have been kicking himself when Stokes kept flying down that wing! I’d written him off after the warm up when he looked knackered, but he was great!

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.

I though Davies would be a massive loss last night but Willis and Hyam really stepped upto the plate. The Yeovil game is but now a distant memory.

Davies and Hyam are both great, would love to see them as first choice next season regardless of what league we're in.

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.
