Ratings: Doncaster Rovers v Hull City

Doncaster Rovers

Balcombe: A testing afternoon in difficult conditions and did not command his area. Almost embarrassed by Lewis-Potter in second half. 5.

Halliday: Had his hands full with Lewis-Potter at times. 6.

Wright: A tough first half defensively as Rovers - Anderson aside - lacked conviction. 5

Anderson: Produced two brilliant goal-saving blocks. Did not have much support in the defensive stakes. 7

James: A blistering drive got Rovers back in it, briefly 7.

Smith: At the hub of some decent moments of play from Rovers. 7

Gomes: Sacrificed at half-time as Bostock entered the fray. 5

Taylor: Did not get a great deal of joy against the experienced Elder. But kept going. 6

Richards: Not the influence that he has been in a number of games this term. Better in second half. 6

Sims: Showed some nice touches, without being vintage. Incensed when his shot was blocked by Honeyman and there was no penalty. 6

Bogle: Went close when his header was cleared off the line and scored a cool penalty. Strong. 7

Substitutes: Bostock (Gomes 45). Added a bit of much-needed calm to Rovers play. 7

Lokilo (Sims 76); 6; Robertson (Smith 86); Coppinger (Richards 86), 9

Not used: L Jones, Butler, John.

Hull City

Ingram: A couple of dodgy moments in the first half, but Rovers couldn’t cash in. 6

Coyle: Linked well with Wilks in first half. Plenty of defensive work in second period. 6

Burke: Assigned with keeping Hull together amid difficult windy conditions. 6

Greaves: His face was a picture after his header to make it 3-1. 7

Elder: Some exquisite set-piece deliveries, more especially for Wilks’s opener. 8

Honeyman. Rovers could not cope with his deadly inswingers from corners. Set up City’s third. But his afternoon took a turn for the worse with a worrying late injury, which saw him stretchered off after lengthy treatment. 7

A Jones: Got in the swing of things in the first half. More up against it in second half. 6

Docherty: Influential. Denied two goals by brilliant blocks by Anderson in first half and superbly set up Wilks’s second. Went off with injury early in the second half. 8

Wilks: Two clinical finishes that any forward would be proud of. The downer was to concede a penalty. 8

Magennis: Linked play excellently and set the tone. Key goalline clearance to deny Bogle. 7

Lewis-Potter: Threatened down the left and produced some teasing deliveries. Maybe should have scored seconds before the break. Hit post with second-half lob. 7

Substitutes: Slater (Docherty 56), 6; Whyte (Magennis 69); 6; Emmanuel (Wilks 81).

Not used: Long, Scott, McLoughlin, Crowley.
