I certainly wouldn't rate him as the worst of that back 6 in terms of ball use and decision making. Have you ever taken note of how many times Docherty turns the ball over? And he plays as a loose man most of the time. Rowe has a different role to the other defenders and he does it very well. As the website article notes, those who vote on our B&F had him as our equal sixth best player.
