Elder: In the wars in the first half and supplied the cross for Magennis's disallowed goal. Plenty of energy, but it was a test in the second period. 6
Docherty: Involved a fair bit and kept going. 7
Smallwood: Restored to the side and handed the captain's armband against his former club and his attitude and work-rate could not be faulted. 6 .
