Mark Travers – 5 Another game where Travers has very little to do except pick the ball out of his net. The stopper couldn’t have done much about the first goal, but he perhaps could have done better with the one-on-one chance.
Rob Hunt – 4 Hunt started his night by making a poor tackle on Conor Grant which should have resulted in a penalty. All night, cross after cross came in from the Plymouth left, and from one, the visitors scored their first.
Dion Conroy – 6 The captain made a handful of important interceptions, plus one crucial block off Camara, to prevent the scoreline getting any worse for Town. He isn’t being allowed to show off his range of passing though, which may have helped the hosts get up the pitch quicker.

The West Coast (and Hawaii) has, frankly, been pumping for about a week now – as showcased here, by our real-time coverage of the swell on both coastlines.
And with that, the O’Neill Regional Wave of the Winter entries have been rolling in. Three of which, worth noting recently from SoCal, you can check out below: Taylor Curran from January 3rd, and Tom Curren, also from the same day.
As Taylor Curran said: “I hadn’t surfed waves that big in quite some time and was honestly a bit nervous and out of shape,” said Taylor Curran. “After a while of waiting, that one came straight to me and no one else was around. Luckily it was pretty perfect so I didn’t have to do too much. I think it probably was one of the best waves I’ve ever caught at home and I’m still buzzing from it!”
