Swindon Town 2 Doncaster Rovers 0: Player Ratings

Swindon Town made it four wins from their last five games on Tuesday evening, as they took apart a visiting Doncaster side who find themselves in the lower echelons of League One. Total Sport's Danny Gallagher delivers his verdict on the individual performances.

Lawrence Vigouroux - A generally solid show from the on loan stopper. Wasn't called into action much, but dealt with situations accordingly when required. Still needs to work on his distribution kicking from open play. Wayward balls almost cost Town on occasion. 6/10

Nathan Thompson - The captain has been valiant since his return and continued where he left off against Rovers. A calming presence at the back, Thompson battled on even after taking an awkward fall. Town look a much more composed unit with him in the side. 7/10

Jamie Sendles-White - The new boy again gave a good account of himself. Reads the game well, though was perhaps a little sloppy in possession at times. Has slot into the Swindon set up quite seamlessly. 6/10

Jordan Turnbull - Not the best game for the full back. Wasteful in possession, with one failed long ball attempt after another. Looked to advance at every opportunity giving a positive outlet going forward. 5/10

Brandon Ormonde-Ottewill - Continued his fine form and looks a real threat going forward for the Robins. His all round game seems to have improved, with his one-on-one play and delivery into the box making Swindon a danger. 7/10

Brad Barry - A solid display from Barry, whose game can still be improved by his distribution in the final third. Advanced well down the wing for Town in the wing back role, yet still competent in the challenge when tracking back. 6/10

Drissa Traore - Won the ball all evening a made himself a presence. Traore has enjoyed a good spell of form since his spell on the sidelines because of personal issues. Town will need his grit and no nonsense approach in the coming weeks. 7/10

Michael Doughty - Now looks to have established a real understanding in the centre of midfield and is beginning to dictate games once finding his rhythm. Was quieter against Doncaster in comparison to recent games, but a solid display nonetheless. 6/10

Ellis Iandolo - The youngster who many Town fans are talking about showed once more why he is so well regarded. Exhibited flair and composure on the ball and isn't afraid to attempt a difficult pass. With game time and added experience he could be a regular starter for the Robins. 6/10

Jon Obika - Manager Luke Williams admitted after the game that Obika was looking to add more goals to his game, and he certainly came good on his promise. A poacher's finish for the first while his second displayed pure power and aggression. His hold up play was also as consistent as ever and the big man rightly collected the Swindon Town man-of-the-match. 8/10

Nicky Ajose -  A great chance in the first half looked destined to give Ajose his 20th goal and put him top of the goal scorering charts. It didn't quite come off for the diminutive forward, but his all round game was solid. Still looking sharp, Ajose's goals don't look like drying up any time soon. 7/10

 

Substitutes 

Fabian Robert - Replaced Iandolo in the second half. Made an immediate impact after cushioning the ball before sending Obika through on goal. Plenty of neat flicks and nutmegs to boot, another classy showing from the Frenchman. 6/10

Louis Thompson - Replaced Doughty in the second. Slowly being eased back into the set-up following a lay off. Battled hard and will be a welcome addition back in the ranks once fully fit. 6/10

Anton Rodgers - Came on late to replace the Swindon skipper. Didn't have much time to make any form of impact, a few passes here and there along with one neat through the legs flick which earned applause. 5/10
