Title: 5 Things We Learned from Lincoln win
Post by: RoversAlias on February 02, 2021, 09:14:45 pm

Hi folks,

My analysis of Saturday's great win over Lincoln is now up on the website, focusing on the performances of Balcombe and Richards, Darren Moore's defensive game plan and more. You can check it out at the link below:

A good read but looking at the highlights Reece James did little wrong for the first penalty. Look at Grants legs, he intentionally fell over Reece's leg to buy the penalty.

I said on another thread that the give away was the way Grant flicked his heels up when he went down.
A classic dive movement.

Anybody who has played any sport or runs knows that automatically you try to move one leg to try to keep upright or your balance. His legs could have been tied together at the ankles the way he went down.

Totally agree - Grant has awards for his play acting....... might be because of his Spanish/Portuguese forename   :huh:
