Morley was very good for an old man. Good to see MAcca get a special on him and they had a good battle during the game. I'd say Warrington had the better props and Rovers the better second rowers.

Was a good battle across the field and nothing really between the teams as you would hope with two quality sides.

Re second rowers: Ben Galea was a disappointment. Presumably he had one of his worst games of his season as a lot of Hull Kr fans were talking about him as a man of steel contender. His error in hoofing the ball straight in to touch when he had an overlap was something I wouldn't expect from an experienced pro. Newton played with his usual enthusiasm though and looked the better of the pair.
Credit to Westwood for playing on with his injury. It was his drive and quick play the ball that allowed Higham to get out of dummy half and put Morley away for a crucial score.

The player who really impressed me for Hull Kr was Welham, his reading of the game in defence was superb. Good to see a young British centre coming through.

Briers kicking winning drop goal was probably why he got it in end.
BBC in "awarding MOM to a half from the winning side" shocker!

To be fair, Briers was involved in all the crucial plays:

1) Long ball out to Bridge who made the break for our 2nd try.

2) Kick for King for our 3rd Try

3) Supported Morley and great quick catch and pass to Bridge for th last try.

4) Made the break in the 1st set of ET to give the team field position which we never really lost.

5) The drop goal.

Overall, whilst I think Morley was the best player, Briers did more than enough at crucial times to warrant MOM.
