. Ellery Balcombe 6
Could do very little about the four goals he conceded as he was left woefully exposed by his defence. Pulled off a couple of decent saves to keep the score down and distributed well. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
. Joe Wright 5
Struggled defensively out of position up against vibrant, pacy attacking play from the visitors. Brought height and physicality to the position and was a useful target for long diagonals. Disappointingly lost his head later in the game. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
. Tom Anderson 6
Remained steadfast while all around him crumbled. He produced a couple of vital blocks to ensure the situation did not get any worse. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
. Cameron John 5
Looked very shaky at centre half and his confidence looks very low. He made several unforced errors with his passing that only increased the pressure. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
. Branden Horton 4
A very difficult afternoon for the youngster, who was taken off before the break. He was given a torrid time by Wigan’s fluid attack and struggled on the ball. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
. Matt Smith 5
Could not be faulted for his work rate and determination to make something happen for Rovers, to the extent he ran himself into an injury. Deserves better support around him. Photo: AHPIX Ltd

7. Scott Robertson 4
Given an opportunity in midfield but was poor. Did not move into spaces nearly enough and looked to be lacking the legs Rovers needed. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
8. Reece James 5
Struggled for any real impact on the game until he was withdrawn with an apparent concussion. Did little on the ball and did not disrupt the opposition off it. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
