Well they weren't.
Rovers had better chances despite being tonked in the penalty count, field position and possession and you can add to that the loss of Vella after 15 mins. They also had a perfectly good try chalked off. Last season under those circumstances they would have been soundly beaten.
Defensively they were superb and were always a threat with ball in hand. They only real negative was they coughed up the ball too many times and put themselves under pressure.
