I thought he'd started the season poorly, but today he was magnificent . Covered every inch of the grass,never gave up, tackled like a terrier and showed a high level of skill in every thing he did . All about opinion but Man of the Match by a mile for me today .

Thought he was great also, despite not clearing it into oblivion cost us the goal.
Also a bit curious as to why he was playing at CB deeper than Helik, Pearson and Hogg at times with Helik pushed into midfield... Made me nervous but he comes with it well

His ball control is excellent and he works his bollocks off every game. A cracking player

Made me nervous but he comes with it well Every Town player stayed with their man, so rather than pass the runner on Helik followed Iheanacho all the way into midfield when he dropped deep and Rudoni followed his runner through. Personally thought Helik was MOTM

It's nice to be able to have a debate about who the MoM was for being the best player, not the least worst.
I thought Hoggy, personally, as he set the tone for the team but you could certainly make the case for Pearson, Helik, Rudoni or Diarra ( who would have been a shoe in with a bit of final product, not necessarily a goal or assist, just a killer ball).
Application, hard work & commitment isn't going to be an issue with this team but having the ability & that final, decisive bit of quality in the final 1/3 in close games against teams of similar ability to us is.

He looked stronger which is half the battle with a player that is good on the ball like him, need him to chip in with the odd goal.

He's contracted to 2026 with an extra year, so has plenty of time left here. I feel like getting him rewarded with a better deal (given that he stepped up and played so many games) should be on the contracts roadmap for the club, if he continues to develop and perform well.

I am not one to go overboard but I think this guy will be a real gem. Having come from a club relegated to L2 he played most games last season, and this season seems a lot stronger. He still interviews like a little boy, dazzled by the highlights but his honesty and commitment shine through. And NW never goes through a press conference without a positive comment about him which can only increase his confidence levels. Well done Jack.

Thought he got knocked off the ball far too easy , his shots either off target or lacking pace , a bit Bamfordesque . But this season he's definitely growing on me 👍

I wouldn't go that far but I'll readily admit that I was 100% wrong about this lad across multiple threads in the past. He's a very good player

He’s got an incredible engine, doesn’t back down when dispossessed, and some of his balls in behind are superb. I felt gutted for him when scuffed a decent shot today (as I did with Thomas, Harratt, Bergzorg Diarra and Koroma in fairness - Jesus how many chances did we have?)
More of the same Jack, you’re killing it, fantastic effort today.

I’ve been on the fence regarding Rudoni.
I’ve been able to understand the different points of view whilst not being able to make my own mind up.
After his performance today I’m now certain . He’s a great player and has improved to become more composed on the ball, a fine tackler, great passer and a threat going forward.
What more do we want?

Took my 15 year old daughter today. First time she's been to a game in years. She asked who my favourite player is. I had a little think and realised it's Rudoni. His improvement and growth just continues and its a pleasure to watch him.

Looks like he will be worth a lot of money. When the ball was contested, came out with it. When he had thinking time, played the right ball. Next step is to score goals. I think he will because he makes good decisions.

Rudoni and Wiles are going to make a formidable midfield duo and one of the best pairings outside of the PL before the end of the season.

I’m not sure I’d go that far, but for sure they look a great pairing. Energy power pace and can both pick a pass. Thought apart from scoring a hat full we were excellent yesterday.

Good to see the majority seeing his potential - he had a lot on his shoulders last year, struggling team, young lad, new division, being asked to do multiple roles but you could see signs of a good player in there.
Hopefully, he continues to kick on and is consistent this season and adds more goals to his tally.

Him and Wiles great examples of how to identify talent and invest without breaking the bank
More of this strategy would see us moving forward well as a club

Very good performance. Another player who Warnock is getting the most out of.
My biggest concern about Warnock going is the effect on players who have improved under him. Koroma is another.
Hopefully they will continue to improve under whoever comes in.

Thought he was our best player today. Wants to be involved in everything, never stops running, has a part in everything we create. Top player.

That booking he took was an utter disgrace.
Maybe not quite enough for a penalty but he didn't "dive".

I would love to of seen Rudoni paired with O'Brien with hogg behind. In a world full of young footballers who do as little as possible on the pitch and can't wait to go home to their rich lifestyles you can just tell jack absolutely loves playing football and he's not scared to get on the ball. He was judged wrongly last year as we lost Lewis and people were quick to jump on his back but fair play to him he's one of our most consistent performers alongside Helik and he's the one that creates things and never stops running. I hope we keep him for a long time.
