Arscott: Under pressure to perform on his return to Brickfields, the full-back gave an assured display under the high ball. 7.

Garvey: Not as threatening as the previous week against Birmingham and Solihull and made too many handling errors. 6.

Crockett: Partnership with Higgitt is still a work in progress, but his defence was solid and made a few dangerous bursts. 7.

Higgitt: Another Warrior whose handling was below par, but he was a reliable presence in defence. 6.

Benjamin: After just three league tries last season, he was back to his best with a hat-trick of deadly finishes. 9.

Carlisle: Struggled to give Warriors much-needed go-forward as the visitors’ play was often too latteral. 6.

Arr: Could still do with getting the ball away from the breakdown quicker, but tackled well and was full of running. 7.

C Black: Returned to Plymouth after a loan spell in 2008-09 and gave a good account of how he has developed an athletic game. 7.

Shervington: Despite the odd wonky line-out, he was hungry for work and gave Warriors a real ball-carrying presence. 8.

Douglas: The Scotland international was never really noticed around the park, but rock solid in the set-pieces. 7.

Bowley: The second row carried on his impressive start to the campaign with another reliable display. 8.

Kitchener: The England Saxons lock is getting better by the week and has a great all-round game. A real top find. 9.

Best: As abrasive as ever at the breakdown and a real thorn in Plymouth’s side. Prominent in the loose too. 7.

Abbott: Filling Pat Sanderson’s shirt with aplomb so far - would be harsh to drop him when the former skipper is fit again. 8.

Horstmann: Battled back from a first-half blood injury to lead the side to victory after an unexpectedly poor start. 7.
