    Very good performance.

    Hatate outstanding.

    Bernardo came in and fitted in brilliantly.

    Johnston and Scales superb at the back.

    Add 3-4 quality signings this week and we are going to be unreal this season.

    Thought Holm played well when he came on too. Neat and tidy in possession - maybe needs to take a few more risks so we can see what he’s all about.

    Great to get another win, at times we felt a little sloppy with passing but STM were playing very physical which caused problems.

    Idah - I'm sure once he's fitness improves he will start banging them in.
    Bernardo - Did some really great passing/crosses.
    Taylor - struggled and passing was off tonight.
    Kasper - great distribution again.

    Good for an hour today, very good in fact. Hatate was excellent, McGregor too. Kuhn had a good cameo, another assist. Scales deserves a mention he was solid today. Bernardo played well within himself, he kind of just leaves you wanting that little more but hopefully that will come. Maeda was Maeda, top class endeavour but really should have got a goal.

    I have to say barring Kuhn and Kyogo that bench can’t be what we go into the season with. They will likely start games, if Kyogo is still here and it will be Forrest and Idah but we need 4 or 5 in to complement what’s there. I know hardly any time to do it but we need it for when midweek games start at the end of September.

    Job done.

    Think we are playing in 2nd gear for a lot of it. Killie, Hibs and St mirren is not an easy start to the season and we have max points heading into the Hun game with a chance to go 5 clear. That's ideal.

    Wind howling and rain today playing a team of rugby players, that could have been very difficult.

    What a wild day out there today made for what could’ve been a real tricky one for us

    Great result and good solid performance

    3 down, 35 to go

    We were outstanding again. Impressive and seamless transition to the post-O’Riley days

    Really happy with that. So far we look a level above everyone we've played and we're still only on 3rd gear most of these games. Starting well makes all the difference. Even we the pace drops we never look under any real threat. A few players still look a little off full fitness so we should get sharper in the next few weeks.

    Looking forward to next week!

    Solid win today.

    Continued our early season form and gives realistic confidence going forward today.

    Would have gotten better odds betting a tenner on 3 nil with a bookie though
